Boats?

Long time no blog..I could offer up that I had precious family in town and was not giving up time with them to blog..or that I am busy raising a almost 2 yr old..or I could be honest and say that I have been cheating on blogger with something else... (no, its no facebook..I still don't get that..)

Meet my newest addiction
I love to make bows..love, love , love it..which just further cements that I will have all boys!! I bought 2 bows for part of a baby shower gift and realized they were $5 each...WHAT..surly mom I can do that!! Turns out I can do it!! Some were real rough looking at first, but I have it down and they are WAY cheaper this way!

So, I don't have a daughter..so my other subjects have been more then helpful to step in..
He sees me making them and tries to put them in his hair..he calls them "boats" not bows..so that makes it better.....right!!!


Come on, they will not be scarred forever

And in case there was ever a question of "if" I will ever get a girl...No, it wont happen... Why you ask???
Cause I saved all these for "her"..."in case".....Destined to be that mom of all boys!! Guess my nieces will get to benefit!!
(In my defense, a spool of ribbon makes 10ish bows, so I saved two for pigtails and one bigger one...as cheep as they are to make..it wouldn't make sense to NOT keep them...right??!?!?!?)

They turned out SO CUTE! When (not if) you get that little girl, she'll be well-accessorized.

I broke down and bought soccer ribbon in grosgrain and figured out how to do it on the rubberband. It is SO ADDICTIVE.

That is so funny that Charlie calls them "boats" because that is EXACTLY how Audrey says it too! Kids are too funny!
