Identity Crisis

Addy goes to bed by about 7:30 every night. On weekends, she sleeps upwards of 4-5 hours a day. (Wakes up at 9, nap 10-1, nap from 3-5, bed at 7) While that is undeniabley great news, it makes for a lot of time in the basement waiting for her to wake up. So... enter my new hobby... making Addy new clothes. Or trying to make Addy new clothes and them giving them to the children whom they actually fit. Any requests????

First piece of clothing... It is huge on Maile, who is 2. Needless to say it was way to big for Addy. And, it looks like she should be in a cult in Idaho or Utah.



Her first pair of pants. They still need a bit of work around the waist. I may have to start over. I do like the fabric combo though.


This is my big success. It almost fits! A bit big though. I think if I make it a bit shorter it will work. And it will be cuter when she is walking. If she ever starts walking.



The new Addy we have grown to love. The Addy with lots of teeth coming in and the periodic melt downs. Although today tooth #3 popped through and she was refreshingly happy! Happy babies make for happy parents!

There is one more dress (2 really- the first will go to Elsa since it was too small, and the 2nd actually fits more like a shirt) but I didn't have the heart to make her try on a 3rd outfit today. Pictures will come sometime...

Where have you been hiding this domestic side of yourself? Or am I just the last to know ... I LOVE the clothes - maybe they'll shrink :) Kristin

Oh, and Reese is in a 10/12 ... just FYI!

I can't believe you made those! Actually, I'm not sure I DO believe it. They're so cute.
I'm so jealous of Addy's long naps. What I would do for one of those...

Eric told me about your new hobby and I think it is so great. The clothes are SO cute. Maybe you should start a side business and make adult clothes too? I would buy that dress in my size!
