So I've been a little crafty this week. Yesterday I made Eli a pillowcase for the pillow he's been using in his crib. I found this way cute truck/bus fabric at Hancock and thought it would be perfect. I also appliqued his name on the front as you can see.
Here's the almost two-year-old. When I showed him the pillowcase he immediately pointed out the red bus and the blue truck. (I also may have made the shirt he's wearing too, but not this week, like two months ago)
And here's the rest of my craftiness- a floor cushion. I was originally going to ask for a bean bag for Eli's birthday and then thought I could make something instead. I got my inspiration at http://www.livingwithpunks.com/2010/05/tutorial-land-of-nod-inspired-floor.htmlBut I made my cushion wider and shorter. I made the piping from fabric I had leftover from my nursing wrap and my friend Kim gave me the upholstery fabric for the cushion. It only kind of looks like a dog pillow! Hehehe.
And here we come to the cuteness. Plain and simple.
Both boys HAD to have a ball in their hands during the wagon ride. Isaac of course had to eat his and Eli just wanted to hold it- well and throw it, but I told him mommy wasn't playing chase. :)
