Lacy Lacy

I was at my parents house after her dance class today and decided to grab my dads camera and snap a couple shots of Lacy in her new dance outfit. Plus, then I can brag about the adorable skirt I made her. I'm pretty proud of it, just don't look to close. I basically just made up the pattern. I was bummed when I bought the wrong fabric for the cute petti-skirts Chantal and I have been wanting to make, but I am not one to waste good material. I sat down one day and decided to sew away!
This one is all vintage looking. It was hard to get this one bright enough, but I think it is still adorable.

She loves being in front of the camera, what a hamm!!
I had to take a close up... I am most proud of the ruffle I made. I got a little creative, but after about a hundred pins, it seemed to have worked.


And of corse we had to get a cute shot of her spinning in action...
On a different note, Lacy said something really cute today. I asked her this morning what she wanted to do and she said she would give me clues and I had to guess.
Clue #1: She has a pretty house
Clue #2: She's a grandma
Clue #3: She has a nice big couch
Clue #4: She has a dad who lives with her
Clue #5: She has a big TV
Lacy: Now what do I want to do?
Me: Sounds like you want to go to Grandma's house!
If we cant go to Grandma's house, this is what she wants to do...

Clue #1: She doesn't live far
Clue #2: She loves Lacy
Clue #3: Lacy loves her
Clue #4: She has a pretty house
Clue #5: She's a person

Lacy: What else do I want to do?
Me: Sounds like you want to go to Mimi's house!
Unfortunately we didnt really do either, but I thought it was super cute anyway. How she came up with the clues and made me guess. She's a crack up!!!

Help :(

I have a confession...
I am a huge dumb prego with a new mad addiction to Dr. Pepper. I know its bad and the caffeine is no good for baby or for my sleep.

I know Caffeine FREE Dr. Pepper is sold in AZ... but WHERE??

Help, anyone. Tell me where!
