Halloween is creeping up fast!

I decided to make Everleigh's costume this year. I don't know why I looked up owl costumes but I did. I wanted her to be the sweetest little owl and when I saw others online I figured why buy one from someone else? I could just make one. So I did, and here is the end result. I've sold over 50 of these costumes on Etsy. There will be several little owls out there on Halloween night hooting for candy.

Everleigh's Birthday was filled with family, friends and CAKE! Her smash cake was created by Leah's Sweet Treats  it was beautiful and oh so yummy! This year has gone by so fast but I hold on to every moment. Happy Birthday to My sweet baby girl!

Never do I hear the sound of time until I sit and stare at my children. Everleigh is 11 months old and will be celebrating her 1st year this month. Geoffrey who is now 13 has already shot past me in height. Gavin with his hilarious personality has calmed just a bit and is growing that all too familiar handsome young boy face. Geoff and I are getting old enough for the boys to notice and actually say something like " Nasty! You guys are too old to be kissing." 

Tonight Everleigh sleeps. not only does she sleep, she sleeps in her crib.....in her room! It's 3:01 in the morning and I should be sewing my brains out but all I can think of is her. Getting to this point was hard for the both of us. What am I saying? I crawled in the crib with her to get her to sleep and she passed right out. It was me who has been checking on her every three minutes. Ahhh I'd better either start sewing or get to bed. To all of my night owls out there.....sleep tight.

So, we finally bought a minivan. I swore up and down that I'd never be a minivan Mom but here I am typing proudly about it lol! It has so much room and I don't ever see how I did without it.

Ever has been through a lot in her short 7 months. She just got over having the flu and is now on meds to help her breathing. She's been sick three times already two times with high fever but is doing SO much better these days. I made a little headband today and thought I'd take some pictures of her in it. 

Whoops!

So the 365 thing didn't work out. I really thought I'd do it but oh well! The weather here has been horrible and we all had cabin fever. I think the kids are even glad to be back to school:) Here are some pictures I took of Ever in headbands that I made for my shop!
