I got a little ambitious and decided to make Jackson's halloween costume. I thought it might save me some money and I couldn't find anything I liked in the stores. Well, it cost me more than if I would have just bought one and of course I procrastinated and was sewing the night before halloween. I think it may be the first and last costume I ever make.
But he does look pretty cute!!
Here's a couple of pictures of Jackson's actual 1st birthday dinner. Turkey, mashed potatoes and carrots. YUM!
A couple of weeks later we had a little party for Jackson. Here he is eating his lunch.
Opening presents...
Can you say SPOILED!! (but worth every penny :)
I know what you're thinking..."Wow, Darci you made a great cake!!" Nope its from Costco.
Who gets cake in their ear?? Really!!
I promise I will do my best to keep this up better. OH, and in case you haven't heard...Joel and I are expecting #2!! I am due at the end of April and I have my ultrasound next Friday to find out the gender. So stay tuned!!!
Congrats!!! That is exciting, and it explains why you haven't updated your blog in so long. Thanks for the update. I love Jackson's little suit.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting for you guys. Congrats! I also think the costume looks super cute. It may have taken more money and time but i bet he was the best dressed baby there.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you made costumes! You are amazing. Did you start with a pattern or did you design it yourself.
ReplyDeleteI started with a pattern and followed it best I could. Believe me if you saw it up close you'd see all my mistakes. Good thing Halloween parties are at night!!
