A Fun Apron
I thought it turned out really cute. It definitely has the homemade look but it will work great for helping in the kitchen and all that fingerpainting that she loves! My son's picture will be soon to follow. I still need to pose him!

Here is a copy of my list:
~I will purpose to be thankful and joyful in my interactions with my kiddos.
~I will remain in training mode where I will try my hardest to consistently discipline for disobedience instead of throwing in the towel because I am "too tired" and I am doing it all on my own.
~I will show much grace, kindness, love and compassion. I will RELAX! Stop freaking out about the dirty counters and messy bedrooms and sit on the floor and play "store" with the kids already!
~When I am about ready to blow, I will STOP, take a deep breath and smile...
~I will wake up early before the kids each morning to get a little time and read my bible and look over this list. I need to get my day started on the right foot!
And of course, when I mess up (and there is no doubt that I will) I will confess and find forgiveness at the cross. Thank You, Lord, that there is always forgiveness in Christ.
Oh, and I am going to sew. I have to keep myself busy at night so I don't get the blues...I am going to sew some aprons for the kids from this fun blog.

Love the Fabric Store!
I saw some really cute fabrics for some bibs for the baby. She has been needing some new ones and I thought I would make them so they'd look a little more fun. They were super easy. I just used an old bib for a pattern and used flannel on the back. They each took about 20 minutes.
Here she is sporting the bib for dinner tonight! So stylish!
