so...by the way the belly looks, what do you think we are having?

that day I got told by a lady that called herself a "Gipsy" that we are having a boy...

do you agree?

bag...

in my experimentation with bags...this is my latest creation.  Big, fits a lot of things, I was able to put a couple of pockets inside for small things to stay in one place...after all I'm pretty happy with it! I love the fabric, and the colors.

and of course we needed to see a picture of Ella Maria with the bag...now you can tell how big the bag really is.

dresses...

#4
I just can't stop myself...too many cute dresses out there, and I want to make them all!
I found this cute fabric that was on sale...50% off plus a 40% more with the store coupon, how can you resist that...so I got it.
I got 1 yard, and had enough to make 1 dress for Ella Maria...and a little extra left that I want to use to make a little bag...but that will be my next adventure, I need to learn to attach a zipper.
There was this dress, called the "pillow case dress", as the name says it...you use an orphan pillow case that you might have hanging around.  But, in this case...I have no extra pillow cases, I actually need to get some (maybe I can make them, yes i know what you might be thinking...but why not!)  So I measure a pillow case, "made" one, cut some sleeves, and from there I got a dress for Ella Maria.  I was so ambitious this time around that I even made a lining for it. 
I really like the end result...and Ella Maria looks absolutely adorable.
I'm getting more confident with my sewing...the sky is the limit!

more strawberries!!!

... more strawberries from our little "City Garden."  We really are seeing the "fruit of Ella Maria's hard work."  And this time she even shared with us...one for daddy, one for mommy, 4 for Ella Maria. 

SIX that is how many strawberries we got!

Ella Maria & Belly...

Our first strawberry!

We got our first strawberry...Ella Maria has been taking great care of her little City Garden, and we finally got to see the "fruit of her hard work"!
and we got the pictures to prove it!

I guess it was a very good strawberry...she did not share, but after all is HER garden!

one of the books I want...

I saw this book the other day...and I really want it! I will love to make every single project in it.

Specially now that the due date is just around the corner...about 14 more weeks.  Enough time to get a few projects done...ideally!
With that said I will have to go get me a couple of lotto tickets...and hopefully the wining ones!
