It has been quite a while since I have blogged. The reason for this. . . I got pregnany unexpectedly. While quite a blessing, also quite exhausting. I held off for the longest time tell anyone outside of family and close friends. After what happened with Julia, I was terrified to hope for a while. I was assigned to a great high risk doctor though, and Joseph Matthew arrived safely by induction on February 13th. I was induced at 37 weeks because at 32 weeks he began showing signs of IUGR, and the doctor felt he was safter out that in at that point. He has done very well since and it quite adorable.
While I was pregnant, I also discovered that you have to be licensed to legally make items using military fabric. As a result, I pulled all my listings until that is settled. I have been working on fulfilling the requirements, and am currently licensed by the Marines, and am working on the Army, Navy and AF as well still.
Because of having a new baby, sleep is here and there, but I am still working on orders as they come in, and trying to catch up on house work that had fallen behind. I'm also trying to catch up on homeschooling my 4 year old, and getting him ready to go to school with James next year. He does do well with homeschooling, but has been asking to go to school with James for the last two years at least. So, we're giving it a try.
In the meantime, I have been playing around with new patterns, and getting ready to consign with a store local to me, as well as the Little Bit of Bliss gift shop on post. Stay tuned for more updates . . .

It' been a while.
It's been longer than I'd like since the last post, but there has been quite a bit going on. To start, I got overwhelmed with orders, and have spent a lot of time catching up. Then, Jake went to LTP where he fell and fractured his skull. He came home after being discharged from a hospital in Vegas, and spent a week recovering at home. He was plauged by constant migranes for the better part of that week, then they let up just in time for him to get Strepthroat. He wasn't even at work for a full day when he got sent home for that. He seems much better now, which is wonderful.
So, in the meantime, I've been taking care of him and the boys, and trying to get orders done and maintain the house. Jake had his first full week back to work, so I'm mostly caught up on orders now, but need to get the house picked up a bit more (it's not bad, but not up to my satisfaction. Jake helped me this weekend with the dishes, so that was a big plus.
So, now onto what I've been working on. A friend of mine who did the business cards and web design for Creative Mamas did a trade with me for my web design and a registration card for my Mei Tai. As a result, I made her a diaper cover with a coordinate with an embroidered shirt, and a size medium swing back dress is Boho Orchid (one of my favorites).
I've done, and sent out quite a few diapers and diaper covers lately as well. Here's a look at some of what I've done.

Boy it's been busy around here.
The last time I posted, I was just getting ready for a Bazaar. Well, the Bazaar went well over all. I also got custom order during and from the Bazaar, which I am still catching up on. I've just about completed all the orders that came in during February, and am trying to clear out the ones from March, so that I can get to April.
At the end of this moth, I will be opening my own HC store, and will be stocking it will inventory I have in stock. In the meantime, be sure to check out some of the items that were at the Bazaar.
