New Skirt!

I saw this AWSOME fabric at our craft store, Porter's. So, of course I had to buy it and I found a pattern, from a blog, that had a tutorial on how to make this "cupcake skirt"! so CUTE! anyway I just followed the directions, it was WAY SIMPLE, you could do it too. I'll post the blog at the bottom of the post.

So this is my skirt...well it would fit a 12-18 month old!

Then of course with the scraps I made some shoes to match =o)

And this is a whole nother project! Jackson is officially OUT OF OUR BED!! yeah!! it has been almost two months, and the last two weeks he hasn't even whined about being in his own bed, he just accepts it and even kind of prefers it now! who'd of thought this day would ever come? not me! ANYWAY his prize? I would paint a dragon on his wall. This dragon comes from a book I have loved since the third grade when my teacher Mrs. Bonds, first read it to our class. I bought the book in gradeschool from schelastics and I found it a few years ago. ANYWAY< I read it too my kids now =o) So I copied the dragon from this book. (the only difference is that Jackson wanted his scales purple, instead of red)...

I had a lot of fun doing it and took me longer than I thought (three nap times) But it was all worth it to see Jackson SO happy! what a little cheese ball!
