happy little ones

When I was in college I was involved with Campus Crusade for Christ.  The last couple years I was there, Sarah Fisher was on staff.  She is a lovely person, and much more crafty and talented than I am.  Now her name is Sarah Bong and she has three children, and she is still much more crafty and talented than I am.

When we found out that Baby Dahl is a girl, I bought some fun little things from Sarah's etsy shop (happy little ones).  Everything is well-made in her shop, and very inexpensive as well.  And when I got the package in the mail, it was awesome!  She had even sent some extra gifts along as baby presents! 

Here's the onesie she sent; it's white with a little strawberry embroidered on the chest.

A close-up of the strawberry.  I'm totally picturing Baby wearing this with a little skirt and sweater.
She sent two pairs of barrettes with little strawberries that match the onesie.
Better hope my daughter isn't as bald as I was as a baby!
Five little felt strawberries to play with.
Yummy!
So a huge thank you goes out to Sarah of happy little ones!  You can check out her shop here and her crafty blog here.

baby girl nursery

It has been really cold the last few days.  Really really cold.  So of course, I daydream about what to do in Baby's room!

Whether it's a boy or girl, I would like to keep the room fairly neutral as far as wall color - probably a light, soft gray that could go with either sex.  But if it's a girl (gender scan take two: two weeks), then I'd like to bring in some purple into the room.  A light, soft purple, not in-your-face... more lilac or lavender.  Here are some delightful things I've found on etsy that I might put in my little girl's ideal room.

Again, these are not all items that I will go out and buy, but I just think that they would all be adorable in Baby Dahl's room, if Baby is a She.
