Auburn/Georgia Game

Taylor and I were finally able to make to an Auburn game together. We tailgated with family and saw a few friends that we had not seen since our wedding. Perfect day for football and ended up being a great game!

WAR EAGLE!

Footballs

My childhood best friend, Jonathan, and his wife, Beth, welcomed a beautiful baby girl into their already sweet family with big brother Jeremiah back in September. I was finally able to meet her and catch up with the entire Eubanks family over the weekend. With both of her parents attending the University of Alabama, I could not bring myself to make an outfit for her with Bama on it. A bubble with footballs was all I could manage to do. Cannot wait to watch this little girl grow up!

Little Candy Corn

I made Lucy's Halloween costume. I had one thing that brought me this inspiration: Miley has a toy bear dressed in a candycorn suit. We call it "Mr. CC" and it was always a joke with my sister about it. When I found out last October that they were expecting a baby, I bought them their own "Mr. CC" for the baby.



So here it is. The costume. Simple and sweet. Cotton, lined with soft white fleece.




And the only picture I have on my phone of her in the costume. Here she is playing with her "Mr. CC".

tent sale

Storkland had their tent sale today and I decided to go take a look around. I got several blank bubbles for $8 a piece. A hard deal to pass up! After spending hours constructing a garment to be smocked, being able to just pick these up and smock sounded perfect! I already know how I am planning on using a few of them. The sizes were pretty much already taken so I was only able to get a couple of 3 months, a few 9 months and one 12 months. Cannot wait to see how they turn out!

baby leggings

I made Lucy some little baby legwarmers from some ladies kneesocks that I found on clearance at Target. I used this tutorial to make them. It was so easy and they turned out really cute too. It was a lot better than paying $12 a piece for official Baby Legs.

Emily Kate Goggans

Taylor's sister Amber gave birth to a precious baby girl this morning! Emily weighed 5 pounds 3 ounces and 18 inches long. She is perfect! We are so excited about the new addition to our family. And thankful that she waited until we returned from our trip to arrive. Baby Emily and mom are both doing great. She has dad wrapped around her finger already. And Big Brother Price, he doesn't understand what all is ahead but he's so excited that she's her and ready for her to be home!!

vacation

We left from Atlanta this morning and it was 98 degrees. We landed in San Diego this afternoon at 65 degrees. I may have a hard time returning to Alabama.

I'm so thankful for this trip and quality time with my husband.

ruffle onesie

I love these ruffles. This is definitely not perfect but it's a onesie for a newborn, plus my first try, so I think it turned out just fine! This tutorial that was super easy to follow. Again, I used jersey fabric so there was no hemming involved. (please excuse the iPhone pictures)

I love that I found this idea on homemade by jill too! There are several other things that she has posted about lately that I have just about finished making as well. I'll be posting those over the weekend.

petal collar onesie

I found this idea on one of my favorite blogs the other night and I decided to give it a try. She talked about the tutorial on heylucy and so I started there. I didn't use the heart shaped pattern though. I used a flower that had fallen off one of my shirts from Ann Taylor Loft as my pattern to cut from. I did hand stitch them to the onesie. I used jersey fabric that I got at Hobby Lobby (1/4 yard for less than $1.50). I love the way that it turned out!!

I cannot wait to see Emily wearing this! And I have a feeling that I'll be make more of them. Maybe even some tank tops and shirts for myself. Total time to complete this was under 30 minutes. Perfect to do while catching up on my DVR last night. Now off to work on some ruffles! 

projects for the little ones

As I said in a previous post, we just had one niece born almost 2
weeks ago and in less than 2 weeks we will have another one arriving too! This has turned my crafting into full force. Taylor has been traveling so I am able to come home from work and decide when to get started.

This is the start of the project..


Some ribbon by the roll, snaps, disappearing ink pen, and some
Jersey fabric- all for under $10.



This 5 pack of oneies that came from Kohl's for $12.

Almost ready to post the
finished products!
