JAMMIE TIME

Harrisen has been growing so fast!
He has out grow all of his pajamas. I really hate buying pajamas too. They are expensive, don't last long, and who really cares what they look like anyway, you wear them when you are sleeping for Pete's sake. ( Sorry that was kind of a tangent huh.)

So I spent the day today sewing more pajamas for the little guy. He got 7 new pairs, (that should be enough I hope,) and I just bought plain (clearance) tee shirts to go with them. they each have a different "theme" anything from baseball or basketball to Race cars or cowboys. His favorite are the helicopters, which he insisted on wearing first.
Although Harrisen HATES tags on his clothes, he really needs them to be able to tell witch way the pajama pants go. So, I solved the problem by using a soft white fabric and sewing it all the way down. No flaps tickling in the back of these pants. I even used a permanent marker to write the size on it, just in case we give them away for hand me downs later.
It took a good majority of the day, ( I was easily distracted from today's project for some reason)but we got it done and Harrisen is sleeping happy tonight.

Flag football belts

I decided to start up a blog dedicated to the wonderful talents My family has been blessed with.

Alex and Kirsti helped me make Flag football belts. Mike has been wanting them for a while now for the full post on this project, see my family blog. I posted it there before I thought of doing this blog and I don't really want to start over with it. there will be more to come soon. (I hope)
