I finished another sewing project. This one was actually easier than the dress, but I still learned a few new techniques. I made the skirts a little big (size 4), so that she could wear them for a while. Her measurements does not even register on the pattern (my little skinny Minnie). The top picture is material my mom bought when I was a kid. I played with a lot of my mom's sewing stuff, so it is neat seeing things I remember resurface. The skirts is a little old fashion with the trim, but I love it!
Meli wanted her nails done as monsters. I am so not good at painting nails, but I am learning. We used glitter and craft eyes. She loved it!
Colin had swimming lessons the past two weeks. I was able to go to half of them. It was nice helping out. He is excited to use his goggles and go under the water. He is very timid with water, so this is big! They were both trying it out in the bathtub.
It was a pretty weekend. We took advantage of the sunshine and headed to a playground. Love these two so much!
Colin's reading has improved so much. I cannot believe how much he can read now. It is so crazy how it just clicks. Meli is pretending that she can read too. Adorable.
Meli's quote of the week:
"Mama is not a baby. Mama is my SISTER! And daddy is a boy and Colin a boy and they are both BABIES!"
