another shower for Nina and Baby E

Nina was blessed with another baby shower last weekend. It was hosted by her matron of honor and longtime best friend as well as the wives of other coaches that John works with.


Baby Elizabeth got so many nice things.
Can you see the baby doll Nina is holding? It was crocheted by my mom, and is just like one that my Grandma made for Nina when she was a little girl. The baby is all crocheted except for the soft plastic face and hands. One hand is holding a baby bottle that fits in the baby's mouth.

I made a diaper bag for Nina and used this tutorial.

Baby E is not due until the second week of June but some signs are pointing to an earlier delivery - who knows though?

Saturday yard sale finds May 15th

This was not a great day for yard sales. We went out this morning, my dad, husband and son with me. I made the only purchases but 2 of the things are on my yardsale want list so I guess we did not do too bad.



one Pyrex find - small refrigerator dish with glass lid $2
However, 2 of my offspring have declared this dish "ugly" but I like it.
what do you think? ugly or interesting?



brand new in the box little food chopper $2



Bumpo chair for Baby E $5 - this has been on my list of yard sales wants, we've seen 2 at other sales but they were priced at $20 and $15
Safety 1st booster seat $2
