My Crafts!

I don't do well with being housebound, and since Brooklyn has had a cough for nearly a month and a half (just sick enough to not want to put her into the YMCA daycare), I have not had my hour or two of exercise time in my days and with the colder weather, we haven't been outside as much as we usually are. So, I started a few new hobbies!

Amy Butler is officially my favorite pattern-go-to-girl. I love her patterns and now have 3 of her purse patterns and her book. This is the best purse I've ever had though! Tons of space and a pocket for everything! I'm working on making a few more for my sisters...

I experimented making Tutus - they seem so easy to make and are expensive to buy, so I made 3. Still don't know what to do with them. Hopefully Brooklyn will want to wear it one day. For now she has no interest. I also came up with a few ways to snazzy up my Baby wraps. I made cute bags for them to go in and added little "Binky Holders" on the front panel.
November 14 is the craft fair where I hope to make enough to pay for my trip to Canada on Monday!

Our Relief Society did some great projects this year . Here are a few of the things we made. I taught how to make those Tile Picture Boards. They still have mine as a demo, but here is an example of what I'm talking about (Bottom right).



I do actually teach and play with Brooklyn too - honest (;
In fact, she is potty trained! It took a few months to get it down completely and I still put her in diapers at nap and bedtime, but we are diaper free during the day!
Hallelujah!

Option for a Healthy Birth

I am not typically a big writer on my blog. I usually just post a few dozen photos of my adorable child and make little comments below. Well, I need some sort of outlet for all of my frustrations and thoughts and would love some feedback on them. As many of you know, I ended up getting a C-section with Brooklyn after planning on a completely natural birth with the help of Hypnosis. That is a whole nother story, and I wont' go into it, but I learned a lot about the what I want and need to have a healthy delivery. After extensive research into the process of birth, I know that it is possible for me to have a beautiful, natural birth and the things that that entails really aren't extreme and are in fact proven to be healthier choices for both me and my baby. (For our book group this month, we are reading "Gentle Birth Choices" by Barbara Harper, which is one of several books I have read on the topic and one that I would highly recommend - as well as the documenary ...
