Now that's an outfit...

Seriously this is the most awesomest outfit ever. Each piece has a story of its own, right down to the ball in his hand. Let's start at the BabyLegs, I ordered them, thinking the purple was blue, so he has never worn them out of the house, then we go to the diaper cover and lap tee, tie-dyed by my bestest friend Kristy, underneath the diaper cover we have a "Day at the Zoo" Fuzzi Bunz diaper, then onto the ball, a Fisher Price Roll-a-Round ball to be exact, these are Dillon's security, he actually wouldn't leave the nursery at Church without taking one with him. (I think I know what we are getting him for Christmas, lol)

And did you notice....he is standing.

Life has been busy, a good busy. We are really getting back into the groove of things in Eureka. Aidan is enjoying going to school so much, Coda is enjoying the time he gets to be the "big" brother, Téadora is potty training herself and Dillon, well Dillon is no longer a tiny baby.

We are enjoying preparing ourselves for the birth of Jesus!! Aidan and Coda are really getting into the Spirit of Christmas, they are excited to bake a birthday cake for Jesus and are even more excited that they get to eat it, :)

This weekend Nick and I get to go see Sara Bareilles in concert. Nick went to highschool with Sara and now she is a big-time musician, she is so AWESOME!! We love her music. Nick's sister Anika, her husband Bob and their kids are coming up from Santa Barbara for the weekend, it will be fun to all be together, we haven't seen them since July.

Oh and Dillon got his first pair of *real* shoes, I am in love. See Kai Run - Noah. Nick actually picked them out, boy, my husband makes me proud! Well, that was a random post. Hope it wasn't too boring...

While sister is napping....

the brothers will have a photo shoot with mom :)

Huh?!

Fun with Yoghurt and Playsilks

Breakfast youghurt, more fun that could be imagined :)

I had to show of Téa dressing up in her playsilks. These playsilks were hand-dyed by yours-truly. Playsilks are awesome, they can be used to make pretend dresses, capes, wings, used as blankets, smoochies, danced with, snuggled with, wrapped up with, the list goes on and on.

More Tie Dye!

Yipee!

I went out on a limb today. And surprisingly enough the limb didn't break.

I am a regular at DiaperSwappers. More often than not I have been frequenting the forums to add to my stash of cloth diapers and various accessories :) A few times I have sold some diapers that we no longer used or didn't work for us. But today I tried something new. I decided to put some of my Tie Dye up for sale in the WAHM (Work at Home Mom) Wares forum. Holy Moly! I have gotten such an awesome response. So far I have sold NINE shirts! I am so excited. I am selling the shirts for not a large profit, because more than anything I just want to make enough money to buy the shirts and supplies and then I get to Tie Dye at someone else's expense. As I continue to perfect my designs, I hope to be able to charge a little more...a girl can always use some extra money!

So thank you to the mama's who liked my Tie Dye enough to buy it. I can't wait to see those shirts on all your little ones!

Possibly addicted...

to tie-dyeing. It is therapeutic. It allows me to complete something other than dishes and laundry. And tie-dyeing is awesome because there is a something to show for what I have done...a finished product.

When Kristy first taught me how to tie dye it was hard.  Not the actual tying or dyeing, but the fact that no matter how hard you tried, you really didn't *know* exactly how the shirt was going to turn out.  If you know me and my ways, that was hard for me!

 I get all my tie dye supplies from Dharma Trading.  They have everything you could possibly need.  Plain white clothes, dyes, squirt bottles, syringes and on and on.
