Whirlwind May 17, 2011 – Posted in: Family

There’s no other way to describe this past week, other than it’s been a total whirlwind!!

I did some sewing for orders and got them ready to mail. Friday The Hubs and I got up really early, left the girls at home with Grammy, and went to my 20 week ultrasound. We found out that these little girls…

are getting a baby SISTER!! We’re totally over the moon to have a third little girl, even though my Dad really had his hopes on a Grandson. Between my sister and I, we’ll have had 6 girls in 8 years!

Saturday I spent the day sewing for my oldest niece, Katelyn. On Sunday we celebrated her First Communion at church and had a wonderful time spending the day with family. I can’t believe she’s old enough for this!

                          

And while we did get her a “traditional” gift (a book on the Saints), I wanted her to have something fun. School is about to end and she has to wear a uniform so I thought some new mix and match outfits for the summer would be right up her alley!!

I made simple shirred cotton skirts with matching solid tees from Old Navy.

                          

Definitely not her khaki and navy blue school clothes!

                          

And today The Hubs and I are celebrating our anniversary!! It’s been such a wonderful week, celebrating life events with family and reflecting on how lucky we really are.
