Why don't we make this trip report about 2012 & 2013.

[miprender]

Okay here is the outfit with 11 appliques 10 on the skirt and one on the shirt. I actually undercharged on this so I am aggravated with myself for how long it took.

I only have about 5 orders left but they are a lot simpler to get done

I am then going to try a few new patterns and RTS items.

I am sad today. I feel selfish. I know there are people with things a lot harder than my life and my heart genuinely goes out to them but I don't like people comparing their life to mine. Mine is not easy.

I don't think people realize how hard it is having a child with Autism who is non verbal. It is a daily struggle. I think that is why I try to stay so busy so I don't have to dwell on it too much.

Okay time for happy thoughts. Going to schedule our transfers for our Disney day in july.

WOW... I saw this on FB and wanted to comment here. This is amazing. Do you have a hard time making them each line up.

Hugs to you. I noticed you hadn't been posting much this past week on FB or on the Dis.

I am going to give a little mommy brag here. J has come home from school in the same clothes I have sent him in the morning all week. We are potty training and he is up to 50 minutes at school between potty breaks.

this weekend I am going to try and get him to go here more too.

That is terrific news.

So I have slowly but surely finishing up orders. I was able to get 3 shirts done this weekend. I would love to do more today but my Inlaws are coming over to meet Daisy.

They watch our house when we go away so it is a must. Oh and G has to go and work overtime. arent I lucky. Maybe they wont stay long.

My goal today is to do the following

1. Stitch 2 Epcot Shirts
2. Minnie Fireworks shirt
3. Cut 3 Epcot skirts
4. Sew at least 1 epcot shirt
5. Wash fabric.
6. Test Design for a friend.

I would like to get at least 2 orders out tomorrow because that would leave me with only 2 orders to finish

I am going to then concentrate on my launch outfit and a couple ready to sell peices before taking any more orders

I need to schedule our transportation for our Epcot day during our cruise too.

 

[DMGeurts]

I agree - I think you were chosen to be J's Momma.

LOOK at that LIST girlie... Holy cow!!! That's a weeks worth of work for me... Sigh.

D~

 

[mommy2mrb]

good luck getting your list finished up

 

[cogero]

So I did numbers 1, 5 and 6 going to cut out everything I need to after j goes to bed and hopefully work on a few more shirts.

 

[cogero]

so yesterday I scheduled our transportation to Epcot on our Port Canaveral Day. Our plan is to leave the ship at 8:15am and take in the atmosphere mostly and see some characters and possibly try out the new Agent P missions

Oh and don't forget to try and get our complimentary Visa photo

I also was able to order the pullups and things I need for J to be delivered to the ship.

This is also the big week that I try to change our Christmas reservation to the Boardwalk

Well let me get J on the bus and try to work on a few things before leaving for work.

Hi Chiara,
Just wanted to send you a {{{{Hug}}}}. Yes, it is hard when you have a child with special needs and others just don't know what it's like until they have to go through it.

I haven't checked in on your PTR for awhile so I also wanted to tell you what cute outfits you've posted.

Really hope Sarah and I get to meet you in August.
Sheila

 

[cogero]

Sheila thank you so much for your words.

So I was quite productive today. I finished 2 outfits for a Big Give on FB it was a bad situation and I wanted to help out. I will post them tomorrow.

I also finished another skirt for an order and couldn't find some of my fabric for 2 more skirts (it is sitting on the dryer waiting for me to take it down)

So I then pinned together a Merida Skirt for an order and cut out a skirt that has been swimming in my mind. I feel like I accomplished something.

Hoping to finish 2 - 3 orders tomorrow I have 2 that are about 55% done so those are my priority and a third order that is about 25% done. Then I have 2 more orders to finish and a couple orders that I am in talks with. One is a boy order so that is fairly easy except both of the outfits have 2 appliques each

I also have to work on my appliques for my launch outfit.

I am feeling pretty good about things right now. tomorrow is going to be busy I have a meeting at Js school and I am taking C for her annual check up.

 

[cogero]

so I want to tell you all thanks from the bottom of my heart. The outpouring of support while I have been down has been phenomenal and I appreciate it more than words can say.

That being said I want to show you all that I do still sew.

This was for an emergency give on Facebook. Sad story mom ordered from Etsy and they never delivered

This is the second outfit I made

This is a new favorite of mine.

Today I have a meeting at Js school and hoping to finish at least 3 orders. I hope I can do it

Oh and I think I will start posting some photopass pictures from April

 

[smile5sunshine]

You are such a busy woman! I am constantly in total AWE of how much you accomplish

LOVE the last princess set and can't wait to see what you are working on now.

Sunshine

 

[mommy2mrb]

hope the meeting at J's school goes great

can't wait to see your photopass photos!

 

[DMGeurts]

OMG!!! I love those outfits Chiara!!!!

I really want to know where you got that Toy Story fabric... I sooooooo want some!!!

So, have you figured it out yet - are you coming to Charlotte this summer???? I am dying to meet you and your precious J!!!

D~

I commented on those on Disbout -- I modeled the skirt I just did for the latest BG after the style you make -- can't post photos yet other than BG site -- I don't even have it packaged yet. The outfits are great

I can't believe what happened with etsy!!! I hope the mom gets her $$ back OK and hope it was some fluke -- like the seller ended up hospitalized or something. That's just awful. I am not on FB but feel free to e-mail if any outside gives need some help -- you have soooooooo much on your plate yet you always step in and help others out.

Great progress for J at school not needing any clothing changes! What a fabulous accomplishment!

 

[cogero]

Okay I finished 2 orders today and cut out a few more.

I am trying to get all caught up with things. I need to find some plaid red white and blue fabric. For some cruise items and I am having a horrible time finding anything I like

Friday is a big day I am going to try and change what resort we are staying at for Christmas. We are wanting The Boardwalk otherwise we will stay at AKV

 

[cogero]

I feel bad I haven't been posting a lot I am trying to finish a few things and get started on a few things.

I FINALLY started my Main Street Boutique Launch outfit last night. I think it will be adorable.This morning I need to make lists of what I need to do but I may be lazy for a bit and enjoy the quiet.

Yesterday I had a phone call from the special ed school at our zoned school, saying I was there yesterday and they needed me to come back and sign a form. UHM I have never been to this school. I am now wondering if the district sent his IEP and items to this school and this will be his school.

I am a bit nervous because I haven't heard the best things about this school but I have to remember all kids are different. I did leave a message at the school once I got home but I will be stressing until I hear back. I did contact my MIL to find out what she could about the school.

maybe my letter from the district will come today and they wanted another Mrs Osborne

So I have a lot to do today and will post pictures later on of something new.

 

[cogero]

so I decided to post some photopass pictures this morning since this is a Disney report and I haven't posted many pictures lately.

The theme of this trip was C go get your picture taken by the photopass guy and it seemed like they loved my little blondie

This is from day 1 at Epcot

This photographer was great because he really took his time with her. We were with him for about 5 minutes and people were watching

 

[DMGeurts]

I hope you are able to get the school situation figured out for little J. Hopefully it was just a miscommunication?

And I totally love the Photopass pictures of Miss. C!!! It does seem like the camera ADORES here, and I can see why!

I love the photos and I thought that skirt was pretty when I saw it before -- but it looks beautiful on C and shines in the Fl sun!

 

[mommy2mrb]

hope you get the mystery settled on J's school!


Miss C looks adorable in her outfit!

 

[blessedmom4]

I wanted to say:

I hope you enjoyed a RELAXING Memorial Day weekend! Have you heard anymore about the school situation? That used to keep my stomach torn up in knots. I LOVE your little Blondie as well and Chiara, you are amazing with all of your outfits! Lisa wants to know why I can't learn to do all of that...I say ME TOO! YOu take so many things that seem impossible and make them beautiful!
