Belly Cast



Today is my due date : )

We did a belly cast last night. (talk about waiting till the last minute) I really like how it turned out! Next I'll sand and reinforce it then decorate it. Maybe paint it or do a mosaic. We'll see. It was a lot of work but I'm so glad we did it. We used four rolls of gauze and a whole thing of plaster of paris. It took about 40 minutes. Major props to hubby for doing it for me and my mom made a great assistant!

I'm feeling good. Huge but good. I'm totally ready to have this baby and am in no rush! Can't wait to snuggle a squishy newborn. Dreaming of crazy baby bliss! So thankful to have my mom and sister here, what a blessing!

Baby booties

Just wanted to show my parents that the fancy sewing machine they gave me isn't going to waste ; )

These are so cute and super fun to make! I just used fabric I had laying around!






Here is the pattern if your interested : )
