Since we are headed out of town for Christmas this year, we got together with my sisters, their families and my mom to do a little early Christmas gift exchange amongst the cousins.
For all of the cousins (on this side), I made clothes. I knew the older girls would be fine with it, Guthrie would not know the difference (since he is not quite 1) and Griffin wouldn't be too excited but we gave her a baby doll too. I couldn't not make her a dress when everyone else got one. Of course, the older girls were excited to model their dresses.
Griffin had no desire to try it on and ran away laughing when I asked her if she wanted too...what do you expect from a 2.5 year old? She is too cute!
We got a rare photo of all 6 cousins...this is the best and that is not saying much. :) But I still love it.
Guthrie's hoodie (and Griff's dress) were made from t-shirts that Cortney had while all the others were Target shirts I found on sale plus old shirts of Darren and some fabric I ordered online. I really love Guthrie's...very boyish.
I somehow did not get a picture of Ryan in his hoodie other than this bad photo below. But his is pretty cute and has a picture of a chick (baby bird chick not girl chick) and the word magnet on it (get it? chick magnet? got it at goodwill btw). I will have to get a better shot sometime. Somehow I managed to forget to take photos of the clothes before I gave them away...oh well..not sure they will make it on the project blog. That's what happens when you make 5 things in 3 days. (and if you are wondering these are from the Lil Blue Boo patterns I have bought --still amazing!)
And this might be my fave photo of the day...I was looking down at first and then heard a huge squeal followed by "I love this cash writer" as she hugged the box. "Cash writer" is cash register btw and Ava has been wanting an older kid version for awhile. Wish granted! Thanks Me-Mommy!!
We had a great time at our early Christmas...thanks everyone!
