A Little Light Shopping

Now that we know our boy is on his way, I've done a little light shopping. Nothing major...yet... but I did run across a few little Fourth of July outfits, three that looked pretty good. I figured that at one month old, he might need more than one, just in case.

I began looking for material to make bedding for his crib at our house. One change dictates another, most times, and when I find a crib, I will move some furniture to make room for the crib. Since I'll be putting the crib in our bedroom, I'll move my computer to the library and hopefully buy a laptop. I am going to use left over material from our bedskirt to make one for his crib but I haven't found a material to go with it yet.

Today I found two of the bottles that he will be using and bought a blue one and a green one. They are very sweet.

I also took my embroidery machine to have it looked over. I haven't been successful in creating a monogram yet and began to wonder if there was something wrong with my machine. Well, as I secretly suspected, it was not the machine. It really wasn't me either, exactly. I found that I had been misdirected in purchasing the stabilizer and was never directed to buy a top covering that melts away. The good news it that there is nothing wrong with the machine and I now have the correct stabilizers. I also signed up to take an embroidery lesson on appliqué so that I can applique little cars, dogs and such on the baby's little onsies.

All in all, it was a good Granmama day.
