[HeatherSue]

I just updated my trip report! This is the day where
TESSA MEETS LUKE!!!
Link in my siggy!

On a similar note, but unrelated to sewing...I am doing my final "mentor" session next Monday for Weight Watchers! I am training to be a leader and next Monday I will be conducting my first meeting with my trainer and my mentor both watching! Please please please wish me luck!

Wow!! That is awesome!! I lost a whole bunch of weight with Weight Watchers after I had Tessa. I was down to my goal weight and wearing a size 4 jeans. *sigh* Then, I got pregnant with Sawyer and haven't made the effort to do the program again.

I just made my niece a Dora dress that I thought she would love...well, she took one look at it and that was IT! She wouldn't even try it on!

I had a very similar experience yesterday! Sawyer LOVES Dora, but they don't sell boy's clothes with Dora on them. So, yesterday I appliqued Dora's head onto an orange t-shirt for him. I gave it to him, expecting him to just love it. He threw it down and said "I hate it! It's for Tess! I want Diego!" Keep in mind that he doesn't talk very well, so this was quite a mouthful for him. So, he really hates it! He did eventually put it on and wear it for the rest of the day. He still insists that it's for Tessa. I guess that's why they don't make boys clothes with Dora on them!

The UPS guy came today......and........he brought me my sewing machine......I want to stay home and play with it...but I have my last clinical for the term.

YAY!!!! It's a momentous occasion!

Hi friends,

I am leaving shortly for a 4 hour drive in a winter storm warning to go to lander. There is the brain injury conference and I wanted to go to see if there is any progress in recovery.

FD will be offered for Chase Visa card holders tomorrow so I hope they understand when I have to run out and call CRO! to get my FD.

Wishing everyone a good week. Still sick!

You be careful young lady! I hope there's some new research that will help you and maybe even Sarah's little guy!

Just for you we waited in line for over two hours so we could be in the front And you know I NEVER wait in line LOL

We were actually front row about 5 people from the center. As soon as I figure our how I will try and email you the video.

Thank you Cindee and Morgan!!!

I can't wait for the video!!!

I watched one of my friends get engaged tonight at bible study. We are a close knit group of girls, and he got on one knee in front of us. I felt so lucky to be there for their special moment. I am sooo happy for her!!!

Oh that is so sweet!!! I would have been crying too!

:

Madi came in as I was posting and wanted to use all the smilies she likes.

I love all the smilies Madi!!! Thank you!

Teresa, I consider Daniela our little sister not the baby. It makes me feel less old (cough, cough).

I have some things to show off, maybe later. Right now I am consumed with a weird rash on one side of Megan's neck. Yesterday was the make-up day for field day (it rained Monday) so she was outside quite a bit so I think it might be heat rash. It is red, itchy and pimply looking. I put some benadryl topical cream on it to help with the itch and it looks worse this morning! I am going to try some of that bactroban cream they gave me for her butt infection. Any of my nurse friends who have better ideas, please share!

Like Heather said, we could be Daniela's Mom! I'm so glad she likes to hang out with us old people though!

Poor Megan!! I hope it clears up quick!

Good morning everyone!!!


Just wondering.... Anyone out there in disboutique land watch The Biggest Loser last night???

I just have to know because I need to let everyone here know that TARA ROCKS!!!! Could you believe your eyes when she came from behind, withj all that extra weight to win the challenge?!?!?!? She's my hero! (if you haven't seen it- you need to- it's AWESOME!)

I was literally jumping up and down screaming (softly so as not to wake up the kids) during that race!!!

And, I could have SMACKED Aubrey for making fun of her when she was about to start crying! I was NOT sorry when she went home last night.

Prayer request for a fellow Disboutiquer:

I got an e-mail from hudsonsinaf today. Her name is Shannon. She doesn't post much, but she's a lurker. We e-mail each other every once in a while and she's a real sweetheart. Here's some of the e-mail:

"Our youngest daughter, Samantha, who was born January 16th is having some issues. Since birth, she has had feeding issues. Over the last few weeks, she has had weird swelling over her right temple area that at times gets more severe, and moves down her jaw. During the periods of severity, she refuses to eat and starts vomiting. Today we took her to the pediatrician for a weight check. In the last week, she has lost half a pound. He started looking at her swelling and decided to do a head x-ray to see if anything showed up... it came back abnormal. We are being sent to MUSC (Medical University of South Carolina) to the oncology floor tomorrow morning.

Let me re-emphasize, we do not know anything as of yet! I know whenever I hear the words "oncology" and "cancer" my heart drops and I think the worst. We are praying that the pediatrician is just being extremely overcautious and wants to eliminate the worst possibilities first. With that said, however, it amazes us that they got us a next day appointment considering it usually takes FOREVER for the military to get us sent anywhere - we are going without a referral or pre-authorization, which just never happens!

Please pray for the wisdom of the doctors, health for Sam and peace of mind for us... "

Oh no, I hope Samantha will be ok. We will be praying for you guys.
Heather, thanks for letting us know.

Henry was in a motorcycle accident soon after we were married (when we were both 20 and looked about 12). The nurses would kick me out at the end of the day and wouldn't let me back until visiting hours started in the morning. Looking back, I thought it was because we both looked so young. But, his roomate was allowed to have visitors until midnight (since the visitor worked at the hospital) and he would stay up all night watching tv. UGH! Thankfully the hospital has switched to all private rooms now. If I had it to do over again, I would have told them that I WAS STAYING! Don't be afraid to speak up if you want to come earlier or stay later.

They really treated you badly.

I am a huge fan of the Biggest Loser! I love that show. I don't really feel the love for Tara, BUT last night was awesome.

On a similar note, but unrelated to sewing...I am doing my final "mentor" session next Monday for Weight Watchers! I am training to be a leader and next Monday I will be conducting my first meeting with my trainer and my mentor both watching! Please please please wish me luck!

That is wonderful!!! I would like to get back to Weight Watchers.

YIPPEE!!!

Let me introduce you to sweet little 4 year old Olivia!!!

When Olivia's Mom was 18 weeks pregnant, they were told Olivia had severe heart deffects and were encouraged to end the pregnancy. Of course her parents wouldn't do that, and Olivia has proved to be a little fighter!! (I'm crying just typing this) She has had three heart surgeries since she has been born, and hopefully will require no more.

You have a Jedi too??!! I am sure our sons would get along great!!! Your pictures reminded me of one of my son. I thought maybe you would like to see it. He has the Jedi pose down too! This is my sons black Luke costume I made. (I apologize I don't know which movie it was from).....(my son does though, he asked for this outfit in particular and even showed me the pictures of it I have a very bad memory ) He is in bed or I would ask him. Please forgive me Star Wars fans .

I think they would be great friends. He is crazy over Star Wars. We had to go with the brown CLOAK because he wanted to use it with his Yoda Light Saber. So this is his Yoda outfit. He also has a Darth Vader cape(yes I said cape) because he has the full helmet with a Darth mask. He was Darth Vader for Halloween. He also got to do the Jedi training when we went to Disney Studios(MGM). He LOVED it.
Thanks for all the wonderful words of encourgement.

Not that great in my opinion.
Its sweet, but not much flavor beyond that. Frosting tastes a lot better
We frost first then put the fondant on... and peel it off before we eat it. But it sure can look pretty. And maybe some of the other brands of fondant taste better? Sugarcraft has a few options, but we haven't tried them yet.

Just wanted to comment on this. I'm not a big fondant fan, but I made my daughter's cake this past weekend and made marshmallow fondant. Tasted really good and everyone seemed to like it! I think it's the texture I don't really care for, but it makes a really pretty cake! Check out cakecentral dot com if you haven't already. They've got thousands of cake pictures and lots of recipes too!

Why is it when you need somthing you can not find it anywhere? I am in search of a Large embroidery hoop for Katilyns Mickey head tee (honestly it is to make it easier for me to bead) But none of the stores around me have any in stock. I even resorted looking on freecycle for one.

 

[sheridee32]

Another great Jedi and cloak too!



COOL! How did you do the cowboy?


Hope George is feeling better today. Hope the mean one is off for a few days.


Lots of prayers for Sam and her family!

It is fabric that I bought from ebay it is what they make sheets out of and it washes great, she really likes it

Oh my - Im glad they shared this with you - lots of prayers headed their way - the waiting part is worse than the treatment part!! Even though I dont have any kids, I know with Daniel it was the waiting for answers and testts and ugh!!...by the way he was in a WACKY mood today!! I think its still part of the Posterior Fossa Syndrome that happened after his surgery, but I guess extra silly is better than extra sad!!!

I have a son with a TBI. Hoping you find out that there is a LOT of progress!

I just wanted to ask you guys if you had ever looked into the Interactive Metronome Program - I have personally seen AWESOME results with this non invasive type of therapy - and there is some good research out there to support it!!! It helps you to build super highways in your brain by doing exercises to a beat - really cool!!!! Dont hesitate to PM me if you have any questions!! BUt also athletes in professional sports and even navy fighter pilots use it to help them build their focus and mental timing! Its really cool!!!

What thread are you looking for? There are links to just about everything in the very first post in this thread.

I signed up!

Thank you, Cathy!

Get ready for too many Bambi's!

So I enlarged the coloring book pages and they were MUCH easier to applique! It's still not perfect...but this is as good as it gets with my machine and experience (not that much!)

I am making a skirt or capris with "Thumper" on it. I am just trying to scrounge up enough matching fabric.

Offering prayers for little Samantha.


Also, I just checked out the newest Big Give and the trip report and I almost cried. I've been hesitant to jump in on these as I'm such a novice but I have a little sister too...
So, I'll work out what I have the nerve to make and sign up by tomorrow. (See if I give myself a deadline like that, I'll have to do it. Right? Please hold me accountable or I'll chicken out!!)

I just wanted to say thank you for considering.

I hope that no one doesn't sign up because they think their stuff isn't good enough. We all are at different levels, some have sewn for years and some just started. All is equally loved! Just look at the kids faces when they open them up!

So I promised Wendy that I would post a pic of Aisling wearing all 5 of her "Daniel" bracelets! I know we aren't supposed to apologize for messy hair but this is pretty bad...she just got out of the shower She is modeling the bracelets "Next Top Model"-style

 

[Stephres]

I love the curls, the purple toenails and Aisling modeling. So sweet! Thank you both for sharing.
