Car Seat Cover!

So I made a car seat cover for the baby, and it is so adorable. Unfortunately, I have no car seat, because our old one was too old. It was over the limit so I have to get a new one. But, you can just imagine what it will look like on. It took me four hours, but I think I might be getting a hang of this sewing thing!

Last night I made a changing pad and a diaper clutch from my left over diaper bag material, it may not look the best, but it serves its purpose! Changing Pad Open

New Boppy Cover and Wall Hanging!

So, I have been trying to turn all my cleaning energy into crafting energy, since my house is clean enough and I have been put on a lot of restrictions due to my low lying placenta. So I tackled a new boppy cover all by myself. Let's just say after having 3 kids, 2 of which nursed for a year each, my boppy cover needed to be replaced. It only took me about 2 hours, for me that is fast! And I saved a ton. Do you know how much a new cover cost.... $20!!!!! I only spent about six dollars! This cover matches or will match Sadie's Crib Set I am making with my mom. I think I could make more too, cause they are really inexpensive and super easy. Here is a picture of the new cover:





I also decided to do a wall hanging for Sadie. I did one for James Micheal, but then had a hard time finding the right materials for Evan's and Makayla's so I didn't make them one. But we just got a Hobby Lobby in Spokane which is awesome, and I found exactly what I needed. Mariah came over to help since she has a lot of artistic vision and I just don't. With her help it is the cutest one I have made. I love it! What do you think?

New Diaper Bag!

So yesterday, my mom and I spent a good nine hours, making a new diaper bag for when I have Sadie. It was a lot more of my mom working than me, because we'll just say that my sewing abilities are very limited. But, it turned out amazing and is probably the nicest diaper bag I have ever had. We got the pattern online for free and the fabric was only about five bucks at Wal-mart. which means I saved a ton, and I LOVE IT! It is so darn cute! Here are some pictures! Outside Of Diaper Bag

Afternoon at the Lake

Friday afternoon we all went to the lake as a family after James got off work. Mom Divis, Gavin, Jordan, Mariah, Will, and Dad Divis, joined us and we had pizza for dinner. James Micheal loved the beach and had a great time, finding buried treasures and making a sand castle. We will miss summer when it is gone, but I love making memories with the kids while the sun still shines.

Happy Six Year Anniversary!

So James and I have been married six years today. We have had many challenges in our six years of marriage and many happy moments too. I am so grateful, that we have grown closer as a couple and as parents. Our children have been a big part of our marriage and are definitely one of the best parts. I am grateful to Jame's for his love and patience with me. I tend to be a little snippy when I am pregnant apparently! But, he takes me for who I am and I take him for who he is and that is what makes us good together. I can't wait for another six years, and eternity after that! They say 3 months is too short a time to fall in love and get married, and then to have 3 kids so quickly after is even crazier. But, I guess James and I are crazy together and wouldn't have done it any other way. Here is a picture of us today. We may have changed/gained weight and wrinkles, but I can honestly say I love him even more now than six years ago.

Evan is Crawling!

Evan started crawling last weekend, but he has finally mastered it. He is all over the place! He is pulling himself up on furniture and walking in between everything. He even is starting to get into things. Time for me to baby proof for the first time since James Micheal was a baby. I am so glad he finally decided to get up and go. I don't doubt he will be walking by December, he is well on his way to that! He is still going to an endocrinologist on August 9th, even though he is finally moving I would hate to ignore a possible muscle issue. We are so happy for our little Evan he is growing up too fast now!
