It has been awhile...

Wow...it has been quite awhile since I have last posted. I guess my blog name is true...busy momma! Anyway, who can believe that it is already AUGUST!?!?! This girl can't for sure. I only have one more week of summer break at home with my sweet baby girl and pups. So what have I been doing with my time this summer...I have comforted a baby who cut 4 teeth, started to crawl, learned to use a straw, ate her first cookie, learned how to use the dogs as step stools, mastered swinging, went on her first family vacation to Table Rock Lake, gone many miles in the jogging stroller, said her first word, took her first steps and so many more. I would say I have had one awesome summer!

However, recently I dusted off the old sewing machine and decided to make myself something. My sister-in-law is getting married on August 16th and I decided I needed to make myself a rehearsal dinner dress. I had the hardest time finding a pattern I liked completely, so I just combined a couple patterns and made my own adjustments. Here is what I came up with...




Sorry about my messy room and crazy hair. I stayed up until 2 a.m. for two nights sewing this beauty. I can only sew after the little one goes to bed. Hope you like it. I am thinking of making Greyson a matching one. Ugh, I going to be THAT mom!
