I completed sewing project #2 this week, a skirt. I didn't realize I was that tall for a girl or that finding maternity skirts longer than knee length for my size would be as big of a challenge as it has been. I decided that I was just gonna have to make one, I didn't have the heart to ask my mom to make one more thing for me (she has been sewing me scrub tops) so I tried to undertake this adventure without her. I made it part of the way before driving home for help, but mostly I did accomplish this one alone. It is anything fancy just a wrap around skirt that can expand or get smaller if need be. Realize this picture was taken after nursery so my skirt is a little wrinkled, what else do expect after playing on the ground for 2 hours & holding crying kids. It was really comfy and no problems with showing things about my knee! Now just to make another so I have more than one option. Thanks Mom for the help!


Other news in our life, we had our first kid throw-up in nursery today. Nope he wasn't sick just way beyond mad that his parents actually left him & didn't come back when he cried. We've been struggling to get him to stay alone since January & today didn't help in the battle. Poor Mark was holding the kid when he decided he was gonna cry & throw up. I wasn't much help, all I could do was find the bishop & see how we were suppose to handle the mess. Luckily the Mom cleaned it up, if I would have tried there would have been 2 messes.
I am announcing the SPRING is here, yes I realize it is March & we will probably have snow in our valley this week but we pulled our dutch oven out today are cooking Potatoes as I type this for dinner. Hopefully they are good as they smell & look! Since I am not cooking in a dutch oven in Winter I am saying it's Spring.

Yuck on the vomiting baby. Dealing with separation anxiety is a real challenge. Maybe that mom needs to be called as a nursery worker?
CUTE Skirt though (and it looks super comfy too)! Look at you go Madam Seamstress!
Maternity skirts were the hardest to find. The one you made looks great. Once I get my maternity clothes back from Jordan's sister you can borrow some if you want. (Since I wont need them for a while.) We do need to plan a night for you two to come over.
