Flower on Baby's Bum



A recent project that I thought turned out pretty well... Definitely made me realize that I WILL be able to make diapers for J when he grows out of the ones he wears now. The diaper went to a friend who is cloth diapering her 18 month old and her tiny newborn. I was a bit surprised at how well it fit little L and I really need to sew the other one I cut out.

Have you made your own diapers? Any tips?

Signing Time Sale!!!

Anniversary Sale - All Single DVDs $10 - Limit 10 per customerSigning Time is celebrating reaching 10,000 fans on facebook and their 10th anniversary... with a HUGE sale. All individual dvds are $10 each... saving $12 off the regular price of $22.

Our first introduction to Signing Time was through Timberdoodle, a homeschool resource catalog. We requested the first dvd from our library and not only did J pick up on the signs, but everyone else did as well. Rachel's method of teaching makes it easy to remember the signs and use them. Every dvd includes a song (usually more than one) that incorporates the words that she teaches and if you watch closely you can pick up another couple signs to use as well. Signing Time was one of J's favorite movies to watch while he was in the hospital on chemo. His favorite Signing Time? That would have to be 'Happy Birthday to You' that he received for his sixth birthday in December.

We highly recommend the Signing Time dvds. They are an excellent way to learn sign language and folks who are deaf are thrilled when someone tries to communicate with them using ASL.

Just remember the sale only lasts till Wednesday, April 20th at 11:55pm Mountain Time.

This is not a sponsored post... we just really like Signing Time and would love for more people to be able to use ASL to communicate with people like J.

CSN Stores Review

CSN Stores
It's no secret around our home that I like Flirty Aprons. In fact, I've found the best place to get them. CSN Stores carries Flirty Aprons for $30-$35 for the women's aprons, compared to $45+ other places.

B has been begging me to get her a Flirty Apron... preferably in time for her 11th birthday. Then I got a email from CSN Stores asking if we would be interested in working with them again. We agreed. J helped to pick out the Very Cherry apron for B and we placed an order. The package arrived about five days later. B was thrilled to open her Flirty Apron on her birthday morning and I love that she isn't borrowing mine any more!


Even Momma has one! She doesn't often enter giveaways, but after I won my Flirty Apron, she mentioned that she wanted one in Sassy Black and searched for Flirty Apron giveaways. I won another apron from Mom's Best Bets and kept it a surprise till Christmas. Since then, my other two sisters have said they'd like a Flirty Apron as well.


I love the Frosted Cupcake apron... and four other colors as well. I've found that the Flirty Aprons are very well made and keep my shirts clean. They also add a great feminine touch to a outfit.

Flirty Aprons - Women's Apron in Frosted CupcakeCSN Stores also carries aprons for men, little girls, and more aprons for women. After all, who doesn't need more aprons! Not to mention, they ship very quickly. If you aren't interested in aprons, check out the swingsets, cloth diapers (They are now carrying AMP Duo Diapers), dining tables, etc... there is definitely something for everyone!
