Love Stitched

I started posting some small things I was crocheting and got a lot of feeback on it and requests.  So I decided to try to make some money and do orders.  So far I have had several and this is just a touch of what I've done. 

Each hat I make Caroline asks if it is for her.  Sorry peanut!  So, mommy made her a pink, creme, and brown hat, scarf, pumpkin hat (see below) and a snowman hat (with the pom pom).  She insisted on having a green tractor too!

Here are some things I've done for order....hats (newborn to adult), ear warmers, and also scarves, infinity scarves, coffee cozy, phone cozy, and mug cozy.  I have a possible opportunity to sell in a store in Greenville so I'm getting some things made for that in school colors - hats with pompoms, ear warmers, and finger-less gloves were requested - apparently that's what teens are into these days.  Check out my Facebook page: www.facebook.com/lovestitched14

If this goes well I may get a blog site just for it and keep tossing Etsy in the back of my mind. :)

No Momma! No!

No = Snow

Caroline has gotten very excited for the snow and was bummed when it was gone.  I love the pictures of her looking out the deck door.  While I am not quite ready for snow, it is, after all, the middle of November.

The first morning she saw the snow she asked for her boots....before getting dressed and before eating breakfast.  I told her we didn't have any WINTER boots for her, just rain boots.  I got a very defeated "oh" from her.  When we had our day out Saturday together, I looked....but I couldn't bring myself to buy winter boots at this age for $30!!!  Her feet are small (size 8) and she isn't to the growing point of wearing things year after year so....NO!  XYZ Store, you can keep your over-priced toddler boots. (I even said that to Caroline in the store in front of 2 other ladies looking for a family member.  Seriously....THIRTY DOLLARS?!?!)

I love this one - She picked out her clothes and I asked her if she picked the pants because of the packets "mmmmm, yup!"  She had her hands in her pockets most the day.

Each day is a joy with this kiddo.  The things she says, the faces she makes, what she does....her big heart just keeps getting bigger!  We are beyond blessed (and spoiled) with her!
