I Have Crafty Friends!

I just had to share all the crafty homemade goodness that we have been given for E!!  I sure have some very talented friends & family!  It was funny to see how many "natural" and "organic" things we were blessed with also... I guess they really know us!  I didn't realize how much of my hippy/Mennonite side shines through, I guess. :)

Anyway, here are our beautiful gifts from our awesome and talented friends!

BEAUTIFUL blue and brown knit blanket from my cousin Katie

Diaper cake from my friend Kaitlin (made with Pure and Natural Huggies, of course!)

Burp Cloths from my aunt Darla (I LOVE the "I Love Mommy/Daddy" fabric!)

Super soft and heavy weight flannel blanket and matching burp cloths from my aunt Janet 
(LOOOVE the birdie fabric!)

SOO cute and soft blanket from the amazingly talented Kristen!
Oh, and see this?:
It's not a printed fabric.  Nope.  She cut and sewed EACH on one to make her own spotted pattern!

Burp cloths and adoooorable bibs from Candy (who threw my shower). And she also made/painted these:
Baby E's first piggy bank and a photo frame for me to put E's stamped footprints :)  (I will add though, that Skyler was bummed when he saw the piggy bank.  He was determined to make E's first piggy bank out of clay...I told him he can make E's first CLAY piggy bank. ;)

Burp cloth, bibs, and super cool ribbon mini-blanket and cube!  The ribbons are all different textures so the baby will enjoy feeling each ribbon.  How cool! (And again, LOVE the bird fabric! SEE! People know me...weird. haha) This is from Jessi who threw the shower too.

SUPER cute photo frame from my talented scrapbooking cousin and dear friend Andrea!  (She threw my other birdie shower!)

And finally:
These are some bibs that I made a couple months ago for E.  I had planned to make several more and several burp cloths.  I'm glad I ran out of time because I was given such nice bibs and burp cloths!!  I still may make a few more burp cloths....but I think I'm good on bibs! haha :)

Anyway, I LOVE it all and can't wait to use all this homemade goodness on E!  Thanks again everyone - you guys are truly treasured!

Love, K
