Things I said I'd never do...then I had a baby.



I am a brand new mother to a two month old baby boy. He is the love of my life and is teaching me about a whole other side of myself that I didn't know existed. He has me wanting to step up my mommy status with activities such as: cooking, baking and crafting to keep up with all the other great moms out there; including my own.

My first mission is to learn how to use the sewing machine. I am learning to make my own burp cloths. This idea came to me after a good friend gave me one for a gift and I thought to myself, "I could do this."

After using my mom's sewing machine once in an attempt at my first burp cloth, my husband surprised me with my very own machine - A brother special edition. I guess I better get working!! The burp cloths didn't turn out too bad for my first time, considering I didn't even know how to thread a needle.. I am making them with different fabrics for the changing seasons and holidays. I will post a picture of what I've created.

Happy Sewing
