Alex's Room in the Works

WELL, WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON ALEX'S ROOM, THANKS TO GRANDMA JAN OF COURSE. i AM HOPING TO FINISH IT AROUND TAX TIME WITH MORE COORDINATING FURNITURE AND MAYBE SOME WALL BORDERING. HERE'S WHAT WE HAVE DONE SO FAR:
CUTE CRIB, A SORAGE ORGANIZER AND A LITTLE DRESSER. IT'S GREAT AND LOOKS GOOD. THERE'S A MATCHING LAMP AND A MONKEY CLOCK. I JUST LOVE THE MONKEY THEME, BECAUSE I CALL HIM MY LITTLE CHUNKY MONKEY!
THESE ARE ON THE WALL OPPOSITE THE DRESSER BY THE WINDOW.
    MR MAN NOW, SO BIG! AMAZING HE WENT TO THAT FROM THIS:
        TIME SURE DOES FLY BY. HE'S ALMOST 7 MONTHS OLD NOW, SUCH A BIG BOY!

*My New Work today*

cute huh? ruffles galore, with a little cream fabric rose and a button for an accent.
I liked the way it turned out <3

So, what's been going lately with me, you might ask? I know no one reads this, but I like to imagine someone might eventually. And if not, oh well. 
Alex will be 6 months old in five days and he's already hitting 12 month clothes, of which I have NONE. So, now i have to go clothes shopping for him again haha. My mother got a sewing machine recently, so I have been having fun with it and some of my old clothes, as above, and I plan on mastering making pants for alex this way. I just need more thread and some elastic and then I'll be on my way AHAHA. So excited. And also, chris and will have been together for 7 YEARS come December 17th, so that's neat too.
Chris has been working nights this week so I have been sitting up looking up cute clothes tutorials for the kids and myself. So, Dannika just turned the big 4. it was a nice night, filled with her being spoiled with nice presents of course. I made a huge rainbow cake, turned out good :)
So, I guess that's about it for now. Toodles for Now!
