The new section in the shop!! Here's a few pictures of the new product that I'm making, and I'm LOVING making these. Just dreaming up what color schemes to go with, what the design of their future rooms are...I love dreaming about fabric. Have I mentioned that? Check it out...
And those are only a few!
Also you guys, I've designed my own bag. It's pretty similar to the ones I usually make, but I feel a sense of ownership with this one and it makes me even more excited to sew them! Right now, they're made mostly with the cutest vintage fabrics I can find, as vintage is also one of my latest obsessions. I hope you like it! Let me know what you think!
So? Whats the verdict? As you guys know, the money i make from the stuff I sell in my shop goes directly to helping to pay for my son's therapy, so I gotta know: Do you guys think this stuff will sell??
In other news, guess what? I'm 26 weeks along! I can't even believe it. Pretty soon, I'll be meeting this new little guy face to face. and I can't wait. It's amazing the way I can feel him moving and dancing inside me, but I can't see him. Every pregnancy, it amazes me.
We are stumped on a boy's name. I'm going to do something I don't normally do and ask you, the public: Any suggestions?

Sorry...
I know I have a habit of waiting way too long to update my blog. I guess I wait for something extremely exciting to write about and then, lo and behold, in the life of a SAHM, the 'exciting' things are few and far between. But I guess it depends on what your definition of exciting is! Cuz right here, in my next paragraph, I'm pretty excited about what I'ma say:
I'm launching a new section in my shop and streamlining a little! Out with some of the old, in with the super-duper awesome new goodness!
I won't say what it is yet, but the new product is extremely practical, and I'm using a bunch of expensive designer fabric so they'll be EXTRA sweet. So excited! I'll update the blog once the section has been added so you can all go check it out and tell me what you think.
In other news! I'm 24 weeks along. See?
Thats little Asher down there sipping his juice.
He popped in just as the little camera flashed. He's so cute!
And down below, my sweet Ro. Gosh, I love my kids.

As promised....after pics!
Here are some 'before' and 'after' pictures of our dining room and living room in our new house. We are loving this house more every day. I'm having a blast doing whatever the heck i want with decorating! These two rooms are still not totally finished, as we dont have the curtains yet, but you'll get the idea. I'll post a couple more pictures once the rooms are totally done. Enjoy!
(The top two are of the living room, the second two are the dining room)

Update
**Asher is back to his normal self! All of the cultures and tests came back negative, so apparently it was just a wierd virus! We are praying that the other kiddos don't get it too, but at least are prepared now should it happen. Thank you all for praying! My little guy is a real champ!**

...and we're in!
I'm very happy to say that we are in our new house! I have some before pictures, but i wont be taking 'after' pictures until all the boxes are put away and the house looks like a home. We're actually over halfway done unpacking all the boxes. I know. I can't believe that either, but we just can't stand boxes being everywhere. So come back, because the next blog post will probably be pictures!
In other news, we've had a pretty interesting past few days. I'm not sure why it all had to happen at once, but on top of moving into our new house, Asher came down with a mysterious rash. Up until yesturday, we thought it was just a bunch of flea bites. Ya know, new house, stuff was in storage, blah blah. So we sprayed, cleaned, EVERYTHING. Next morning, he's covered in a rash. Literally, head to toe, covered. Looked like Elmo.
So I took him to the doctor and they hospitalized him immediately. The doctor feared meningitis, since some of the rash was purple (which in my opinon, is just from itching too much, but we'll see.) We got to the hospital and he got even more hives and rash just sitting and waiting for lab work to be taken. He had his blood drawn, a urine sample taken, AND a spinal tap. Yes you read that right. Can you believe that?! My poor little boy. I hope none of you ever have to do that.
He's been a real trooper. All the cultures seem to be coming back negative but we're still waiting on a few. I'm thinking its just a virus, but Lord, it's been hard to see him hurt! He's still at the hospital with Joel, probably coming home this afternoon with antibiotics, steroids, and lots of Benadryl. Praying he doesnt get the post-spinal-tap headache I've heard so much about. Eew.
I'm looking forward to getting settled in our new home with healthy kids who can enjoy it. Ro and Bella took the transition really great.
I'll keep you posted on the pics, and Ash's results from the tests.
For your amusement, here's a picture of what I look like after a full day and night at the hospital with no brush, toothebrush, change of clothes, or make-up.
Dont laugh too hard.

Can somebody say HOUSE?!
We are moving into our new house this weekend! I'm telling you:
I Can. Not. Wait.
We close on Thursday, paint and move stuff in Friday, unload the storage unit Saturday and voila, we're in our new home! So excited. I will post before/after pictures for sure, so check back for those.
Aren't you excited?
There's alot to do before we can move in. Lots of little bits of packing (make sense?), cleaning the rooms we've been using at the in-laws, phone calls to make about utilities, bank accounts, address change, etc. But guess what? I'm not even stressed because my excitement takes over and all i can think about is, 'YAY!".
Ok, you'll hear from me in a few days, maybe next week. :-)
