Pin-dids & Other crafty things!

 So this is the baby shower gift I made:) It was super easy and cost be around $10 (I already had ribbon, key toy &diapers on hand) I got everything at the dollar tree (And that included the bag). I also added a burp cloth for the "seat" and poopy bag holder things under the seat part (also got at DT) Oh, and not shown is the tissue paper I stuck in the handle part because I couldn't find boy socks at the dollar store.

Only I should have used smaller sticks and I just mixed in Reeces PB Chips (like choc chips--brilliant U think!) and some choc chips! Very yummy but next time I'll just melt the PB Chips and coat them! Anyway, we downed them so I didn't get a picture!

I also made some yummy cheesecake! I used this recipe (my fav!) Only I did the heart swirl kind...I can't find the link to show how to do the heart swirls...but ya!:) Here's the pinterest one:

Oh, and some yummy crumb cake I made:) mmmm

Scrabble Tile Magnets & the Coasters I made for my mom for her B-day

Here's the circle quilt I made awhile back! I can't remember where I got the pattern from??

I didn't really use a pattern...I cut circles, spray glued them where I wanted them, sewed them on (about 1/2 inch inside the circle-- and just outside them after I bound the front & back ) It has a frayed affect. Bind and wahla!

 Rice Krispy Pumpkins I made for Booing our neighbors

 So I made this adorable crinkle toy for Sophia! She LOVES it! 

I cut out a butterfly with my cricut machine and used the heat n bond to iron it on before I sewed and stuffed it. It was cute for about 30 mins! Then Allison decided to take the butterfly off:P So next time I'll sew my applique on:/ 

Anyway, I stuffed it with recycled grocery bags to make it crinkle! I've also seen where they attach a velco strap thing so you can attach it to the car seat! But I didn't do that with this one. Cute & simple!

And Flat iron cover I made for Whitney. 

 

So below is the tutorial link I used!

So this Christmas was a good one:) Allison is at the age where everything is so exciting and cool so she made it extra fun! Oh, while I'm thinking of it: Allison has said her own ni night prayers twice now:) Okay, so really we say it then she repeats it, but still! So cute!:) Also another update: Sophie is a pro at rolling over now and she is determined to crawl (she "turns" now). She LOVES the blanket Aunt Adri made her for Christmas:) It's her "softy". Allison is also into drawing now so look out walls! We got her a Magnadoodle for Christmas! It's her favorite:)

Anyway, We all go lots of things including: That cool shopping list thing that prints off that I know you all saw on Pinterest, Chan got a GPS with lifetime updates (sweet), Clothes, Gift Cards, Scarves, hat, sewing machine cover, fabric, other craft stuff, Alli got a little broom, vacuum set (she loves that too), anyway, I'll add more soon. Chow!

 Allison was a duck for Halloween. She can say Ducky and says, "Quack, Quack". She also can say Trick or Treat but she didn't say a word to anyone when she was getting candy! She was so shy, but she sure took the candy!
