Generations!

There are actually 4 generations of Goolsby women in this picture: My Grandmommy Willa Mae, my Mom Becky, me, and little Emily. What an honor it is to be in this line of women.

Homemade Burp Cloths

I decided to get my creative juices flowing this weekend, and I've been sewing! I'm glad Mom gave me a lesson last weekend, cause now I feel like a pro. Kind of.

I made 4 different colors of burp cloths. Some to give as gifts, some to keep. I think they are really cute!

I not only made 4...I actually made....


12!!


Yep, I whole pack of white diapers I turned into adorable burp cloths! It was so easy, and I enjoyed doing them. I was very tempted to buy more cute fabric and stuff, but I figured making a ton was not a great idea unless I decided to sell them. I don't know that many pregnant friends. :-)

So I'll stop with 12.

A few more pictures

Here are some "before and after" shots of the nursery. Our bedding should arrive today, so if it does, I will of course post some true "after" pictures!


Here's me and Grandmommy. Her flight home was delayed/postponed yesterday, so hopefully she's still not stuck at Dallas Love!

And here I am getting a sewing lesson from Mom. I'm making the burp cloth I posted yesterday.
(Yes, you must hold your mouth that way in order to make the machine work properly. :-)

Nursery & Etc....

Remember this...?

Well, we are in the process of getting the nursery ready. Here are some pictures of what we did this weekend. My bedding is still in the mail. When it comes, more pictures to come!


And here is the burp cloth we made yesterday, out of my old baby diapers! I think they turned out pretty cute. I made another color of one, but I gave it away already.
