Disboutiquers Part 7 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[mytwotinks]

OK, totally OT here, but we took Caleb to get his hair cut last night - getting ready for kindy and all - and the guard totally flew off while she was doing the back of his head and now he has a nice little bald spot on the back of his head. So she had to cut it REALLY short to try to blend in the bald spot. I know accidents happen and she did feel badly about it, but I'm just sad. I know in the grand scheme of things, it's so not a big deal, but I didn't want him to start kindy with a bald patch!

My sister once forgot to put the guard on the clippers and clipped a big line all the way up the back of her sons head. She took him to a hair place and all they could think to do was to clip another line and he ended up with a big bald "V" in the back of his head for the first day of school. It was very traumatic for her at the time, but he ended up being the coolest kid in school!

I'm sure Caleb will be fine. He probably just looks a bunch older with really short hair though. That's not what we want for the first day of Kindergarten so I sympathize with you. I think I'll go into mourning when Drew's 2 front teeth start to come in. I kind of see that as my last link to havnig a little kid.

Thank you. It was all done with the magic of a SCANNER *ahem*

Seven days deserves 7 bananas!

wahoo!!! can't wait!!!

I am mysterious!

Not really, I don't talk about it a lot. I found extremely stressful because I knew it cost my parents a lot of money to do it so I over-analyzed every mistake and really worked myself up about it. I didn't eat for days the one time I brought a whip into the dressage ring and was disqualified from the entire competition. They wouldn't even let me do cross country and stadium and we had driven eight hours to be there. I still think that is one of the worst days of my life.

I do miss my horses. I had a welsh pony named Shamrock and when I outgrew him a half app/thoroughbred named Buddy. See Miss Cammie, we are not a good naming family!

Why on earth would you be disqualified from an entire day of events for bringing a dressage whip into a dressage ring?! It's been a while since my horse riding days, but isn't a dressage whip part of the whole *thing*? I guess rules can be different for different events...but my word, seems pretty harsh a penalty!

poor steph.

the judges must have been big doo doo heads.

(can you tell I've been hanging out with 1rst graders today?! )

I think Buddy and Shamrock and lovely names for horses!

My family is nutty about "names"...I swear it's an Irish thing. Every name has a meaning was always the refrain in our house...which is why I struggle when Sally wants to name a blue stuffed animal..."Blue-y"... No no Sally...lets be creative shall we?

I boss b/c I love.

*ahem*

I HAVE to remember that one!

I saw a little girl wearing one here (my eye drs daughter) and asked who made it!!! The mom looked at me like I was nuts! I said "oh, i thought it was a custom" She said no, we just bought it at Disney. Oh well!!!

LARA I am going to go for elementary education but I have a couple of semesters left to finish up my AA. I have more wasted college credits than anyone I know from changing my major so much!!
I used to want to teach highscool english but since spending time in Macs classrooms volunteering I think I would like to teach elementary school. I think I'd like to be a reading resource specialist maybe...BUT I have to take some clases over too b/c one semester when I was 23 I just stopped going to class and failed everything So This semester I am basically retaking all of those classes. I should be ready to start by bachelors program next fall though.

I only ever wanted to be a mommy- unfortunately I've never been able to stay home w/ my kids but at least this will give me more time w/ them than what I have now.

Good luck to!!!

OH and now that I am starting school in a week I'm gonna have to make myself a hobo bag to carry my books. Maybe an Amy Butler Nappy Bag, I found my pattern for it the other day but the instructions are missing. Does anyone have them???

...t.

Here is what I am making for little Danica (for when she gets bigger, like 0-3 months )
a onsie t-shirt dress (thanks sheridee)
bibs
diaper clothes
shoes
binky blanky
recieving blanket

I am going to do each of these in a couple of different patterns. So she'll have a full set of each fabric. What do you guys think?

WooHoo! I finished both of my girls back to school dresses! ! Unfortunately, I have a lot left to do (meaning everything!) for our trip. We'll see how much gets done before we leave!

I was just on etsy looking to buy hairbows (too scared to try and make them and I cannot find the french clips ANYWHERE) and I saw a seller who was making bows that matched my back to school dresses perfectly. Of course, she was selling a matching t-shirt dress made with the same fabric I used. She was also selling a pair of matching painted tennis shoes which I loved!!!! So I'm probably going to buy the hairbows from her but I wanted to CASE (or CAB!) the tennis shoes.


So here are my questions for those of you in the know on painting the shoes.....
What kind of shoes do you buy, canvas or leather? Where is the best place to buy them from? What kind of paints and brushes should I buy, or do you use paint pens? Any other information you could give me would be extremely helpful and appreciated! Thanks so much!

I'm thinking that you're a great friend! I am sure they will appreciate all that you are doing for them!


We haven't heard in a while, how are the outfits doing on the website?

 

[mytwotinks]

Thanks for the advice, but like was said, it depends on the child. My kids all knew (know) I was sad about them going to school, they still know it. It's really not something I'm going to try and hide from them. I also tell them how happy I am for them and how excited I am that they are going to be having so much fun. They know I cry, they can deal with that. I don't stand in their classroom boo hooing, but I can't say I haven't shed a tear as I drop them off in the classroom! I think that's much healthier for the kids than the parents that say they can't wait for their kids to start school so they can get rid of them.

I don't think this is the kind of crying she was talking about. I know it wasn't what I was talking about. I hope nobody was thinking I was saying it harmed kids to know their moms like having them around!

I tell my kids I'm gonna miss them. Drew said, "just go to Target until we get home." So she didn't seemed to traumatized at the thought of me missing her a little!

I'm talking about this lady and her husband at our school who SOB! When Riley was in Kindergarten she was scaring the kids to death. She actually looked at her husband and through her sobbing tears said in an out of control cry voice, "I'm so afraid to leave him here with no one to watch him." As she kept going on and on the kids were getting more and more scared.

I say if your gonna cry, just do it with a little bit of a sense of humor and kind of tell your kids that you know they are going to have so much fun and you are so excited for them!

Or do what I did and gamble your sorrows away!

Be positive and cheerful in front of your kids. Cry when you get home! They do listen (even when you think they aren't!)

That is so true, this is my 1st year with 4 of my 5 in school and my husband asked "What i was gonna do with just me and Mayson? and i said "PARTTTEYYY."
Camden's teacher at SEP conf said that he had told her that

Hey everyone, I have really enjoyed looking at all of your creations!!! I went to a local fabric store yesterday and got some fabric, but I seem to have lost all creative ability!!! LOL I have no real idea on what to make with the fabric. For the Stitch fabric, I was thinking of making a strip skirt with it, DD really wants a dress with it, I am not sure it that works with that material though...any suggestions anyone has would be great!!!

It was all a great deal Stitch was $3/M Mickey and Minnie was $4/M and the tropical one was $2.50/M, I couldn't really pass them up!

Thanks so much!

[disneylovinfamily]

i have so missed all of you. I only just went back a few pages and every thing looks great as usual. Gorgeous pics of tessa and sawyer! Really those pics are stunning and I love the goofy ones too.

I am still going to be on and off for awhile because of BTS sad1: (Roseanna starts 9/2., getting ready for Mark's homecoming , finishing my homeimprovement projects and my crazy business venture and my presidency of the local moms club---not much time for anything! But I miss all of you!

Here is a pic of roseanna's back to school outfits (one of them) using moda wee play fabric:

 

[Twins+2more]

love the ABC decopage jean set.

The minnie face fabric is TDF!

" I love all the older pictures and taking the tours around the country! I haven't ever been very far outside of the deep south so it is nice to see things from others' trips! " - remember a bit back someone posted a photo with their family in one of the Utah parks under the orange rock arch. Did anyone read the story I think last monday but the arch has collapsed. Early morning they said. No one was hurt, no one even saw it drop, but its gone now.

HUMMM may have to get that one for Nik!

OMG if you knew the number of Monkeys that boy had! It is at scary levels! He has 2 big like that but I think that is the one my mom got him last yr at Cold Water Creek. We were there and he saw it in a basket and threw himself on it! Every one thought it was funny. After we peeled him off them and he didn't cry or even ask for him my mom snuck back in and bought him.

I did find what looks to be a small one on amazon I think it is called junglie monkey

Love that fabric! Where did you get it?

 

[100AcrePrincess]

I wish. I have been searching for it for several months now! I'm overcome with envy whenever someone posts a new outfit with it. If anyone ever wants to sell me some and put me out of my misery...

I really wish I had gotten more of it when I got mine. Once the girls outgrow what I made, I'll probably be pulling it apart to use for something else. I just that fabric!
