oops

link http://www.thenappyspot.blogspot.com for the competition!!!!

We're all going on a summer holiday......

Tomorrow we are off to the lovely Sunshine coast for the week! Yeah, beach and sun and all thing fun, like a toddler terrified of the water......
Oh well, I have been madly rushing around packing and wishing I could do some more sewing. I have order packed up ready to go off to the lovely Melissa in Vic, (thank you) and I have been trying to get through the washing so I don't have to do a gillzillion loads when I get home. So I was washing my MCN and thinking how much I will miss them this week. I actually really enjoy using them and they are so cute. but I really need a few more night nappies.
Like the Sandman night nappy from Sustainable Hemp Products that the Nappy Spot is giving away!!! And I am so hoping to win, if not then I will just have to buy one.
Better go and finish packing eeek.... 2 kids and a week away, think we should just take the entire house contents!
Bye!!!!

Back in the Saddle, sort of....

Well I have been super quiet, between my sewing machine breaking, raising my two boys, getting the youngest (4 and half months old) to try and sleep better for me during the day and having major breastmilk suplly issues, I really haven't had much to say or time to do any form of sewing.
But......
I am borrowing a sewing machine this weekend and have an order to do, so I am getting back into it and I am so keen to do some christmas sewing too.
We need new tree decorations and after deciding we really can't afford to deck out the tree in shatter proof decorations, I am going to make some with my 2 year old Ryan and he is super keen!!!!
Now that I am back on track a little, I am hoping to get my photo shoot done and get my pamplet together so watch this space for some professional photos cos mine are not that good!

I have been dreading christmas this year, but now that I am going to get my son to do some christamas craft I can't wait to see the tree decked out in home made decorations!!!

Well they are both in bed and my house looks like a tornado has ripped through it, we have had visitors for a few days and I of course refuse to let them help out so now it is time to clean!!!

Cheers for now

Brimming with Ideas

Well, its 1pm and neither of my boys are down for a nap yet and we are watching disney's Cars for like the gillzillenth time, and I am itching to do some sewing but at the same time I think a massive family nap is due soon too and I really need one today.
Had a few new ideas last night so am working of a few top secret prototypes ( I have looked and cannot find these on the market!!!!), but need to spend some time sewing.
Am also working on some training pants for my 2year old son Ryan (not that he'll probably wear them), but silly me with mummy brain didn't order enough FOE and spent an hour staring at this stupid elastic and the training pants components trying to figure out how I was going to fit the elastic on. Then realised I hadn't ordered enough!!! At that point I went to bed!
I had a lovely day yesterday with my friend and her mothers group (I gate crashed, don't think they minded too much), we went and saw Julie and Julia, loved it was great can't tell everyone enough to go see it already!!!!! Now I want to live in Paris and eat french food!!!
Needed a bit of toddler free time ( he was in his one day of daycare) and was nice to talk to other mothers. I think sometimes as mothers with new babies, we can lose our grip in reality a little, especially when you spend all day in a room trying to settle a crying infant or breastfeeding or toilet training a toddler and fighting that toddler to wear pants!!!! So it is nice to have a bit of "I am not the only one with a baby only catnapping!!!!
Anyway, I am going to have a coffee (decaf) and a muffin (weight watchers one from that muffin place I can't remeber), as I have am ravenous today as my toddler ate pretty much all of my french toast for breakfast (if I had bought him his own, I am sure he would have gone "don't want it"!!!!).
Bye for now, whoever is reading this!!!

Lacking motivation

Well I haven't written for over a week, but I have to say having 2 kids keeps me rather busy and there just doesn't seem enough hours in the day. I seem to be seriously lacking motivation at the moment and hope that it will just be a temporary thing. I think if I can get some sewing done and get some orders I will feel better and be more motivated, but for the time being I have enticed myself by ordering business cards (even though this is technically not a business yet just a hobby) and found someone to be in photos so I can upgrade my phamplet and instructions for use.
And I am not sure if anybody has been reading my blog, but I shall blog away when able and hope someone does. My facebook page is doing well and am thinking I need to start some giveaway deals. But first I need to sew!!!!!!!
Till next time or should I say till Jamie's next nap time!!!!!

Welcome

Hi all and welcome to my very first ever blog!
So I decided to start this up to share with you all the gorgeous handmade creations I have been coming up with and also my friend, Kylie's gorgeous handmade creations.
Also, along the way I have found some amazing and supportive people, who themselves have gone through building a business. Their support and advice has been invaluable!!
I have also found found some great and innovative products for babies and children that I would love to shre with you!
I ihope you'll be patient with me though, as this is all new to me and I get distracted easily by a crying baby wanting a feed or a 2 year whose hungry (they are currently watching the Wiggles!!).
I would love feedback and orders for my products!!!!!
Keep watching for updated photos and blogs!
Cheers,
Jayne
