Baby legs


I found a super-easy tutorial to follow on Flikr for making these cute "baby legs". Very fast and easy. I sewed them from a fun 3-pk of socks I saw at Target.

Littlest pet shop birthday





Riley requested a Littlest pet shop birthday, and so I complied. After her dad greeted her after school with a bouquet of 7 helium balloons, which she loved, we headed home for her party. We had a homemade LPS board game, with necessary mini-games (such as: pin the belly on the Panda, Find the "hamster" in the shredded paper, stomp the cat tail, and find the hidden dog bones), mini cake, mini dinner (very small sandwiches, mandarin oranges, goldfish crackers, teddy grahams, baby carrot sticks, and mini apple juice boxes and mini cans of soda. We finished up by each "adopting" a littlest pet (although the boys opted for the more manly Bakugan toys I found) and decorating a home for it.

Baby shoes




I found this super-cute baby shoe pattern online and had to try my hand at them. I'll donate the broncos (which still needs a football button sew on) and the pink pair to a local fundraiser my husband is in charge of, but I'm keeping the orange for my soon-to-arrive little one (if it's a girl, I don't think a little boy would like them as well).
