Disboutiquers Part 18 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew ;-)

I promised I would update the conditions of our youth minister and his family.

They were slowed down for traffic and the SUV behind them was distracted. He rear-ended them going over 80 mph. There were 6 vehicles involved.

The dad has multiple cuts and bruises, but insists he is ok. The mom has a broken back. She is paralyzed from the neck down. They are hoping once the swelling goes down she will regain some movement, but it will take approximately 6 months for recovery to happen. The break was severe enough they do not think she will ever walk again. She is very heavily medicated and does not know about her daughter.

Please pray, not only for the family, but for everyone that knows this very special, loving and giving family. Our lives were forever changed by the short life of a beautiful little red head. She was truly a light in a dark world. She will be sorely missed.

Please, as a favor to me, will you hug your children for me today! An extra hug. Just tell them it is for the crazy lady on the Dis with a broken heart.

Nini

You got it. I got up earlier and even cooked the girls (and my hubby) a hot breakfast. There are extra hugs and I love you's all around today.

Our candle is still burning, and you are all in our prayers.

Love, The Mason Family

Not really "spare" I guess. There is a queen size bed in there and I typically end up in that room 90% of the time as my husband tosses and turns in his sleep and I NEED SLEEP!

So, I really should say it is MY bedroom......but we aren't having marriage issues......we just need sleep!

Oh, and he says I snore, I am sure I do not!

Dawn

Me and Colby sleep in different rooms for the same reason. To be honest, because we both get enough sleep we don't fight as much as we used to. We started sleeping in different rooms, because he worked nights and I worked days and neither of us wanted to wake the other up. Well we both ended up preferring it that way and plan on keeping it that way for as long as it works.

I finally placed my order with Jo-Ann's! Yay! Do you think I ordered enough flannel though? I got 12 yards. i need to make my DH and I a pair of easy fits for pj pants and I was going to make my 2 little dd's a nightgown using the carla's peasant pattern and a matching one for their AG dolls. Is that enough?

I think you've got enough. The adult pants take about 3 yards each and the kids gowns will take about 2 each. I would think you should be fine.

Nini - I am so sorry. You and your entire church will stay in my prayers.

 

[coteau_chick]

Nini, I am so sorry about this horrible accident. I will keep them continually in my prayers. Only God can get them through this horrible time. I will pray for the Holy Spirit to comfort them. I know only time can ease their pain but the hole in their heart will be there forever. I have been thinking about them since you posted. Please keep us updated on the mom's recovery. Let us know if we can do anything.
Love Laura

Oh, no. I can't possibly understand what they and your church family must be going through, but I know you must all be stunned and devastated. I will certainly be praying for all of you. Do you know if your youth pastor will be able to go to his wife soon? It must be unthinkably hard to be seperated throughout this tragedy. I hugged my kids extra hard this morning, and will give them hugs from you when we get home. Please continue to update us when you get more information. I would also if it's ok with the family be happy to add them to our prayer chain. If you happen to have even their first names it would help as far as providing necessary info. We will pray here fervently that God would provide them His comfort, and that he would heal this precious mother, and sustain them.

Yep! Somebody posted it, but it was possible to miss. The code was on the YCMT blog; the loves me knot handbag is on sale for $5.00, the duet apron is free w/ $15.00 purchase, and if you use the code DIYDEAL, you get $5.00 off a purchase of $25 or more. Another great thing is that when I checked out, I got purchase points based on the full value, before the code

The "sale" runs through tomorrow.

Got mine too! Thanks for the tips!

That is just so sad. I can't help but be very angry at the person driving the SUV. Do you know if they were on a cell phone or if they just got distracted?

The kiddos got extra hugs this morning before going to school.

Nini, I'm so sorry. Prayers and hugs sweetie.

I know you know all too well the pain the family is going through right now.

WENDY!

If you can get the thing to stay in your cart! I tried for about 45 minutes this morning then gave up!

 

[mom2rtk]

If you have gone off the deep end-I am swimming right there with you! My DD LOVESSSSSSSS the Grinch. SHE plans a year in advance to go see the GRINCH at IOA. I have been working on this year's custom for awhile and I need to have it done this week with onother one done next week (it seems we are going twice this year)

We did IOA in 04 JUST to meet the grinch! That year, they still had the Grinch's lair set up and he was a full (green) face character. They also did a stage show of the Grinch. It was incredible. And can you believe my daughter wore jeans and a sweatshirt?????? What a missed opportunity for a really cool custom!

 

[kstgelais4]

I don't have time to go back and look through all the posts I missed but I wanted to let everyone know that I had the baby last week.
Megan Grace was born Friday Nov 20 at 4:22 am - 8 pounds 13 ounces and 23 inches. We are home and doing OK. Lauren is less than pleased right now but I am sure she will come around.

She is unbelievably gorgeous! Cogratulations! I will pray that Lauren comes around!

I would LOVE to get some $1.49 flannel for some PJ pants, but I have HUGE crowd anxiety...I'm skipping Black Friday altogether tomorrow.

I ended up with 50 yards, plus I bought other fabric. I was at the cutting counter for over 20 min. while the lady cut it for me

I am ordering flannel from Joann's online tomorrow...got everything picked out....it was $1.99 today so I am hoping it will only be $1.49 online too...plus I have coupons! And best of all the only line will be me waiting for my hubby to get off the computer! Everyone is getting flannel jammy pants....easy fits in all sizes...what an invention I tell ya!

That is exactly what I am doing. The kids are decoupaging breakfast trays to go with the "family pants" that we will fill with coffee, tea, and homemade pancake mix.

My little boy is interested in the potty.

I was wondering about moving him to cloth diapers during the day to help him notice the difference. He will sit on the potty. Mind you I will NOT be doing this till after we get back from Disney.

I was wondering what cloth diapers people use?

I use like 50 different kinds (lol) but I think the easiest transition is probably Bumgenius

Thanks for the update! This just makes me feel sick. I will continue to pray. I know God can do anything - I have seen his healing hand many times. Including the time my friend got in a horrible car accident in HS and the doctors told the family she would never walk again. Well, she's walking today! I will be praying for another miracle!

I think you've got enough. The adult pants take about 3 yards each and the kids gowns will take about 2 each. I would think you should be fine.

!

Thanks! I actually panicked last night and bought 5 more yards and also ordered a cricut cartridge and told my DH I bought myself a Christmas present. I haven't got a new cartridge in a very long time. Of course I haven't scrapped in a long time because now I love to sew! I got the new paper dolls cart. I love the first one!

 

[busy mommy]

Lydia saw your ticker while I was scrolling and said she is really excited for you that you leave for Floruda in 8 days!

Tell her thanks for noticing. We are really excited too!

You guys have me seriously wanting to go to IOA to see the Grinch! We've never been to Universal at all - now I want to go just for the Christmas stuff!

 

[jessica52877]

The grinch stage show is one of my favorites! It has turned into a huge production though. Used to be just done out on the street and hardly a crowd gathered. It was so nice to almost have the show to yourself. I loved the whole lair and then also they had the sledding with the real snow. It was a super baby hill but fun for Floridians who had never seen snow!

 

[MinnieVanMom]

well, as I'm completely redoing them, here's what I've come up w/ so far LOL.

We're driving overnight Fri (about 19 hrs.) and will get there lunchtime Sat.
We're celebrating both kids B-days while we're there, too.

Sat 6/5 Epcot Dinner at Garden Grill (DS's choice)

Sun 6/6 DHS (hopefully SWW) Dinner at 50's PTC

Mon 6/7 MK maybe Ohana for Dinner; haven't decided for sure

Tue 6/8 AK then DTD and TRex for Dinner (hard to give up our usual Boma ressie, but DS is a dino fanatic)

Wed 6/9 MK (totally princess Bday for DD) Breakfast at CRT, BBB and dinner at 1900 Park Faire

Thu 6/10 Universal IOA; thought about Mythos, but since staying offsite, will probably eat fast food, there's some good CS in IOA.- or so I've been told.
Fri 6/11 Epcot Dinner at Biergarten (DH loves it, and the kids enjoy the show)

Sat 6/12 MK DS's actual B day, dinner at- where else? Chef Mickeys

DS loves, loves, loves Pluto- sleeps with 3 of them every night. All he wants to do is see pluto, so hopefully two of the character meals will have him)

Sadly, home on Sunday; arrive home early Monday morning, back to work Tue.

We'll have our own car, even if we had flown, because we have found that autism and disney transportation are not always a good combo. I need an escape route from the park with known departure times LOL. Plus, it's easier w/ the ECV.

Dang, you arrive the day we are leaving! Dang!!!! We are leaving the 5th for Vero but will be around the pool at BCV. I hope we could just say hi quickly.

 

[teresajoy]

Who was looking for the fabric box/tray pattern?

Thanks Daniela!!! I added this to the bookmarks in the "non clothing" section.

Tell her thanks for noticing. We are really excited too!

Have a great trip!

Last week I posted about making hospital gowns for Grace she was going to have surgery. We went in for the surgery and they canceled it at the last minute after us waiting there for five hours at the hospital. Graces PTT which is a clotting test was way to high to operate on her. We had to go to a hematologist that same day. He said no doctor will touch Grace with a ten foot pole until we know what is causing this. It is one of six things. Four possibilitise are some form of hemophelia and one is Von Williambran disease and the sixth is an inhibitor. I am sitting here a nervous wreck waiting for test results that should be in today or tomorrow. Thanks for listening I just wanted to ask if you could keep her in your prayers. I will post an update when I know more. If any of you have any experience with this type of clotting disorder any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. Laura
