Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!!!!

Today is such a magical day! I'm sure that I've said this a thousand times, but life is just more magical, with a baby. :) You see life in a different light. I've always enjoyed Easter. The rebirth. Knowing that Jesus gave us everything. Including his love and life. With our daughter, it feels like we're experiencing everything, for the first time.

See that cake? I found it, doing a little Google search. The minute I seen it, I knew I had to make it. Why? To take to Lola and Guy's house. Today. After Mass. We're going to be celebrating this beautiful day, with so many people that we love. Happy Easter! I hope the Easter Bunny remembered my chocolate!

Cute Booties

Although our family has had some sad news this week, we got to see Lola. Which is ALWAYS a nice treat!! And while we were catching up, Lola was crocheting the cutest booties. I just had to know where she got the pattern. It's one of the Featured Patterns at Free Patterns, this week. T-Strap Booties.



The minute I got home, I printed the pattern. And went searching for some yarn. I'm almost done with the first pair. Red. :) I can see many pairs, in our near future! I'm sure Miss B is going to love them!

Spring Has to Be Close!!

How do I know this? Besides the crazy weather, that we're having. One day it's H-O-T! Feels like Summer. Next, it's snowing! What's with this? I don't know. Our plants are in shock. We had lilies that bloomed. Gorgeous and big! Only to freeze, and get snowed on. The very next day!

We're not going to talk about the weather though. Nope! I think Spring is around the corner. How do I know this? Today Free Patterns has the cutest pattern. The Free Pattern of the Day is, Baby's First Easter!



Perfection! I'm going to make it for Miss B. Not to wear for Easter. Her Nana already bought her the cutest dress, I've ever seen! But I'm thinking, this would be perfect for Palm Sunday. I've never really made something like this. I'm definitely not comfortable with thread crochet. I'm sure, my Tia is going to get a ton of calls! I can't wait, to dress up Miss B. :)

Did You Say Polka Dots?

It's no secret, Miss B, has plenty of beautiful crochet blankets! She'll never be in need. Believe me! We cherish and love, each and every one of them. It just shows, how much love, we're showered with. :)

But when I saw this pattern, I had to just stop. And stare! My hubby thinks I'm nuts! Our Baby Cakes is only 15 days old. And I'm going to start this blanket for her.



It doesn't sound too hard. And I have a nice amount of yarn, in my Craft Room. I think it will be a nice project to work on, when Miss B is napping. And I can't sleep. I can't wait to see what it turns out like! Oh, and this blog, is AMAZING too!

Making a Sweet Lovie

I was wondering around Ravelry today. And I found this pattern. I had to buy it! It's just too cute! The perfect little Lovie, for my Baby Cake! It looks like a fun, and easy project. The pattern was $5. And I'm sure, I can whip this up, over the weekend. Oh, I can't wait!

Sweet Teddy Bear

I've been crafting away! Like a crazy woman. Times like this, I'm so glad that I get to stay home. And we're able to live a lifestyle, that allows me to be a Stay-at-Home Wife and Mommy. It means a lot to me!

With that being said, I've been making lots of things. Getting ready to meet our sweet little girl. I'm also trying to make some sweet gifts, for some friends. We're all due, around the same time. I found this pattern, and I'm so excited!!



I can just imagine, this Teddy Bear growing with our sweet girls. Something that they can love and cherish, for a long time!! Everything about this little bear, just makes me happy!!

Spring Booties

I'm starting my first pair of Baby Girl Booties! I saw these booties, and I just knew I had to make them! Aren't they adorable? Perfect for Spring! I know, I'm thinking far ahead of myself. But I just can't help it! I'm so excited! I'm going to make the Tapestry Rose Baby Shoes. By the time Spring rolls around next year, our Baby Cake will be around 6 months old. I hope they fit her, all the way through Spring!

Precious Hat!!

When I came across this hat, I about died! The cuteness, is almost too much for me to handle! I immediately printed the pattern. And dug through my stash of cotton yarn. Which is not much at all. Note to self, stock up the next time Hobby Lobby has a sale! But I'm in the middle of this hat. And I just started it. Talk about an easy pattern!! And I just LOVE the way it's coming out. When I finish with this on, I'm going to make another hat, in this exact color palette. It's just perfect for a little girl! The Dainty Daisy, is such a great blog too!!

Tiramisu Please!!

In the last week, my pregnancy has really gotten real. Do you understand what I mean? It's like, finding out that we're having a Baby Girl, just makes all of this real!

One of the very first Baby blankets I ever saw, and wanted to make, was the Tiramisu Baby Blanket. I've had a print out of the pattern, in my nightstand for years! Last Friday, I started this blanket. In these colors. In one week, I'm nearly done! I just have the trim to finish. And the ribbon to pull through. :)



It's like there is magic in our home. We're so excited to meet our little girl! And I'm 99.9% sure, that we have her name, picked out. It's almost too perfect! God sends us so much love. I'm so grateful to him. For making all my dreams come true!

Sweet Baby Cakes Love!!!!

My hubby and I have been counting down the weeks. We just can't wait to meet our sweet Baby Cake!!!! Every appointment, my hubby takes the morning off of work. And we go to our appointments together. Dreaming up the days, when we get to hold our sweet baby.

And with every passing week, we get closer and closer to our dreams. We've been watching our Baby Cake grow. We've been enjoying everything about my pregnancy. Cherish all our sweet pictures. Look forward to hearing, our Baby Cake's heartbeat. And this week, was a BIG week! We found out some big news!!

We're having a Baby Girl!!!!

We are so happy! And with this news, I had to start my first Baby Girl project. This cute hat! I can't wait, to see my Baby Girl, in the hat I'm crocheting. More importantly, I can't wait to hold my Baby Girl. And cover her in sweet kisses!!!!

Monkey Business

The minute I seen this crochet book, I just had to have it! You know, for our "Baby Cakes." :) I got it in the mail today. And I almost died from the cuteness factor! I'm thinking of making the blue blanket, but in green. Or some other neutral color. Because I just can't wait until my 20th week. No, I can't! And that seems to be a "safe" bet.

Fun Hat

Isn't this hat so adorable? I was "googling" some hat patterns. This picture came up. And I can't find it's source. I really would like to make our "Baby Cakes" a couple of cute hats. Just like this. Does anyone know where this is from? Or where I can find a pattern for something similar?

Cuddle Cocoons

Since I found out I was pregnant, all I've wanted to do is crochet. Crochet cute baby things. When I seen this book, I just had to have it. I ordered it, the day after I found out I was pregnant. But with all this "morning sickness" and "busy-ness" that we've had going on, I kinda forgot about my book.

A few nights ago, I was cleaning out my nightstand, and I found my book! I immediately went running to my craft room. What you don't know is, I was going to bed. Had my pjs on, teeth brushed, face washed, halfway in bed. And I went digging around for yarn.



I stayed up another 2 hours. To just get a "cuddle cocoon" started. In a neutral color. Since we don't know if our "Baby Cake" is a boy or a girl. I can't wait to finish it up!
