Sewing up a Storm!

One of the classes that I am taking right now for my minor is children's clothing. It is sooo fun! I love it! I don't know if it's because I am pregnant or what but I have gone crazy! lol! I have enjoyed it so much, but the only problem is that I would always have to go up to the school to sew because I have never owned my own sewing machine. It was kind of a pain. Well, for Mother's Day, Ryan surprised my with my very own sewing machine! I was shocked and sooo happy and excited! Well, since then I have been very busy, and it's so nice to be able to work on my projects in the comfort of my own home! Well, here is what I have been up to recently! :)

Here is me on Mother's Day with my very own sewing machine! Thanks honey! You are the best!

This is what it looks like outside of the box! Whoohoo!

For my class I only needed to make 1 sleeper, but I ended up making 5!! lol! Here are two of them. One is a 0-3 months and the other is a 3-6 months.

This is another picture of the 3-6 month sleeper ( I just wanted a close up shot)

Here are the other 2 that I made. 0-3 months and 3-6 months, but different material! It's polar bears! I love 'em! So cute!

Close up of the polar bears! (Sorry it's kinda blurry)

Ryan wanted me to do uni-sex sleepers so when we have more kids that they can wear them too. I really wanted to do a girl's sleeper though! So I did!! Isn't it the most adorable thing you have ever seen!! This one is my favorite! :)

"Colorado Rockies" little infant hat and booties! The fabric is a deep purple, I don't think you can really tell though. They are cute though!

Lastly, this is the bib that I made today! I decided to do some embroidery on it too. So I did Winni-the-Pooh and friends! I thought it turned out really cute! Sorry the picture is sideways...I couldn't get it turned the right way for some reason, the program was being stupid. lol!

Zoomed up picture! CUTE! It took a really long time to do it, but it turned out so cute it was worth it!

So much for mother's intuition!!

Ok....ready....?? IT'S A GIRL!! I can't believe it! I thought for sure it was going to be a boy. But I really wanted a girl anyway so this works out! :) The ultrasound went so well and they said that everything looks great! Our little girl has all of her fingers and toes and everything! We were able to get a DVD with the ultrasound on it so that was cool. And then a bunch of pictures too! I have posted some here for you to see! She moved around a lot which was so fun! AND...the Dr. also said that she is measuring a week ahead of my origional due date so that is nice! They didn't change my due date though. But still! She might come a little early! We are soooo happy! We are going to name her Kyrah Porter. (Pronounced: "Ki-ra") lol! Anyway, enjoy the pictures!

Belly Picture at 20 weeks! :)




This is what I look down at every day!

Little baby Kyrah! Isn't she so precious! :)

Freaking out and Frazzled!

Hey everyone, I know everyone has been bugging for updates and I really am trying to work on it. I have to tell you though...school has become such a burden for me right now. I have no motivation to do anything...my classes are really hard and time consuming. I quit work so I could just focus on school and being preggo. Ryan is such a sweetheart and is in school partime and working full time so I don't have to. I don't know if it's the horomones or everything is just plain hard, but I am struggling to keep a good attitude every day! I am really trying though! Please pray that I can get through this semester! And get my motivation back! lol! I need to finish school so I can focus on my little baby and being a mom!! :) Has anyone who has ever been preggo felt the same way? I think my hormones are out of whack and that is part of my problem.

We find out what we are having on Monday!! So that is good news! I hope the baby decides to cooperate! :) I will have my 20 week preggo picture up prolly tomorrow! :) Because I always take my pictures on Sundays so I look decent. lol! Anyway, I'll post a picture with this post because I haven't posted in a while.

This is Ry and I on the "Jungle Safari" ride at Disney Land! :)
