Any day now!

I'm going to be an Auntie for the first time any day now and I am so excited!!!!!  My brother, Nate and my sister-in-law, Di are expecting their first little bundle of joy literally any day now.  I think I'm just as anxious and excited for them as I was when I was pregnant with my own little ones.  That waiting game is the hardest thing because you know that at any moment you could be holding and looking into the face of your baby.  It's the most wonderful and emotional experience of my life.  There is nothing in the world that compares to seeing your baby for the very first time.  I know it's kind of weird to say, but both times I had such easy and quick births (thanks to an epidural!)  But I have such wonderful memories from my children being born.  I hope the same happens for them.

Construction is underway!

Work on my newest project is in full force!  I'm working on a twin size baby clothes memory blanket for a wonderful customer's daughter...and I just received the box o' clothes in the mail the other day.  Isn't it funny how getting a package delivered makes you feel like a kid opening a Christmas present?  I love it!  This is going to be a huge project and extremely time consuming since each piece needs to be cut and backed individually for the ultimate durability and overall "prettyness."  The end result is amazing though and it's so fun to piece together a mother's memories of her little girl.  I like to think that one day this mom will sit with her little girl on her lap and tell her about the fond memories that each square represents and one day maybe this little girl will pass her heirloom quilt down to her daughter.  Ahhhh, I guess I'm a romantic!  Check out my shop for the memory quilt that I made my son!  Adorable stuff!

My "little loves"...

These are my two "little loves"...my sweet babies!  Logan and Olivia are such blessings to our lives and they are the reason I get up at 4:00am to work a full time job and own my own online baby boutique, Petit Amour that I run out of my home.  So much can be accomplished with just a table, a sewing machine and lots and lots of love!  I'm such a blessed lady!
