2 Months, Too Fast

2010-09-02T14:14:00.000-07:00

I woke up this morning, realizing that it is Ryan's 2 Month Birthday today...

I can't believe how fast these last 8 weeks have gone, and It makes me a little sad, as I feel like even though I tried sooo hard to relish every moment....the days just somehow slipped by.

I've had someone tell me....that the days go by slow....but the years fast.....

I'm thinking the days go by fast too......you just don't realize it until they've already passed....

So now my little wrinkly love bug....has turned into a rolly-polly....chubby munchkin...with the best kissey spot on the back of his neck.....

and I'm going to try really hard to relish the next 8 weeks.....

and don't forget......A Mom's Take is still having the Giveaway for a set of our Bubbles Burp Cloths....they are Ryan's faves.....

Giveaway ends Tomorrow!!!

Fall is almost Here

2010-08-31T04:20:00.000-07:00

The days of shorts and flip flops......Hot days.....and cool drinks....

are almost at an end. Kids are going back to school, and yesterday I even noticed one of my trees is just beginning to turn.

I'm so excited for the Fall season....I love sweaters, and cool nights....and I ADORE these amazing new fabrics that will soon become adorable fall inspired baby items!

Welcome to the World

2010-08-03T07:13:00.000-07:00

The newest Member of my AMAZING family...

Mr Ryan has arrived...

and the last three weeks with him have been truly AMAZING....

long nights,

long snuggles,

baby kisses,

baby smiles,

He has completely stolen my heart...and has me, his daddy and his older brother completely wrapped around his little fingers...

He already has a way with the ladies....

and has a veracious appetite....

he is in a word....

Perfection!!!

What a Wonderful Day for some Treasuries!

2010-06-30T07:57:00.000-07:00

I LOVE when I get fabulous notes from Customers who are thrilled with their Noah Baby items! I've been blessed to get a few really nice notes recently! Here are what some recent customers had to say!!!

"i just wanted to let you know that i received the blanket today. it is great! i'm excited to have my little one use it. thanks for everything! "

"I received them on already on Monday - thank you.
I can't tell you how much I love them and can't wait to have their pictures taken in them on Friday (we are so behind in life that they are combining their one year photo with Easter photos and the blue in their bunny hat matches the blue in the tie perfectly). They are absolutely gorgeous and I love how they were packaged with the grosgrain ribbon and clothespin! I sat on the couch last night watching tv and holding the onesies...I'm a sucker for gorgeous material...thanks again, very much appreciated and beautiful work. "

What to do on an Early Spring Day?

2010-03-13T06:34:00.000-08:00

How about make some Springtime inspired Burp Cloths!

I found these two amazing and totally adorable Prints called "Petal Punch" last week at my new Fabric obsession!

These two prints are sooooo stinking cute I can't stand it....

The Burp Cloths turned out fantastic...they are bright, whimsical....with a modern twist...

PERFECT for any Diaperbag!

While cutting, and sewing, and loving these little gems, I found myself humming away to Day Dream by the Lovin Spoonful...

I think I must have Spring on the Brain!

What a day for a day dream,
What a day for a day dreamin' boy.
And I'm lost in a day dream,
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy.
And even if time ain't really on my side,
It's one of those days for taking a walk outside.
I'm blowing the day to take a walk in the sun,
And fall on my face in somebody's new mowed lawn.

I've been havin' a sweet dream,
I've been dreamin' since I woke up today,
It's starring me in my sweet dream,
'Cause she's the one that makes me feel this way,
And even if time is passin' me by a lot,
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got.
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for dropping my load.
A pie in the face for being a sleepy bull toad.

And you can be sure that if you're feelin right
A day dream will last a long time into the night.
Tomorrow at breakfast you may prick up your ears,
Or you may be dreamin' for a thousand years.

It's Been a Long Cold Winter....

2010-02-17T10:28:00.000-08:00

I always find that when the husband is away on a mission...which is a lot.....I tend to go a little fabric crazy....I guess in an attempt to cure my case of the blues......

This week I got in two amazing prints from probably my favorite fabric designer Joel Dewberry ...and right away went to work....I knew they would make such an adorable, modern yet pretty burp cloth set....and boy was I right....

Then to top it off...today was a gorgeous day....with great lighting for pictures...even with my husband having taken the nice SLR camera...they still turned out well!!

I HEART Laundry Monster!

Don't You?

To Haul...or not to Haul....That Is The Question...

2009-09-09T13:15:00.000-07:00

I decided I needed a Tote for my munchkin-Pooh....to haul with us to the Library....the beach....to his aqua tots class....and so on and so forth....my diaper bag just wasn't cutting it anymore....One day while visiting a Craft Store in Michigan...I found these AMAZING...SUPER DEEP Cotton Grocery Bags...and thought Hey...I could make this super fun....and unique for mr. man....

And OH my GOSH....have they taken off....I've made Three Fabulous ones for some super cute little pea-pods....

My Niece Kara...Just Started Pre-school last week...figured it would make a great bag for all of her toys, books and projects she brings home!!!

These bags are the Best size for

Anything you can think of....You need to Haul it...This bag can handle it!

To Everything (Turn, Turn Turn)...There is a Season....

2009-09-08T05:36:00.000-07:00

(Turn Turn Turn)...

I knew there was a reason that I had this song stuck in my head all the way back from the Shore on Sunday....which by the way....was NOT an even abbreviated....in my wildest dreams....tropical vacation....

Mr Weatherman.....You Lied to me....it was not warm....it was not sunny.....and I think you need to send me the $25.61 in gas it took me to drive there...to find out just how cold and windy the shore really can be....

But alas.....that really isn't the reason behind the byrds song still two days later still resonating in my morning foggy mind....

I woke up this morning...thinking....(I think it was the change in weather that's done it)....WOW...another Summer gone....another Fall Beginning.....

Another Season further away from the Corporate....run run run....life I had before.....

Another Season with my new Stay at home Mommy....run run run....life I have now....

As I lay underneath the down comforter...with 2 out of the three dogs snoring beside me....some ME time before I hear the little Chortle of Pooh in the other room....

I realized I've accomplished a lot in the last few seasons......Some of which include...but are not limited to....

Being able to multi-task while having a 21 lb wiggly toddler strapped to my hip.....a feat my husband still tends to have problems with....(HA)

That my not quite back to pre-baby body....and slightly (ahem)...okay...more than slightly rounder booty....does look good in a pair of jeans.....

(Probably one of the more important).....Taking parenting advice from your parents....is NOT mandatory.....though I'm sure they wish it was....

I've gained Confidence in my own parenting skills....I'm realizing I'm not inept...that somewhere within myself I am getting all this good parenting sense....(see above)

That even staying home....can give me utter fulfillment...and joy....and the same satisfaction as when I was running a $4 million dollar department....who knew?

Another Season.....Another leg of the journey.....this one is always one of my faves....full of Hayrides....Pumpkin Picking.....silly Costumes......Daddy will Actually be Home.....

Oh but did I mention....he's deploying on Christmas Eve......Such is the Military life.....Hey...A)We'll just celebrate a day early....and B) at least I got more than 2 weeks notice this time!.....

Little Blessings......

Sassy and Chic...Mommy To Be....

Yo, Ho, Yo Ho...a Pirate's Life For Me

2009-08-05T06:20:00.000-07:00

walked outside one day

And a man was standing there

He had a great big beard

And lots and lots of hair

He said won't you come down to the shore

And join my jolly crew

And we'll wander round the world

Beneath the skies of blue

We'll sail upon the seven seas

Travel near and far

Take from the rich and give to the poor

And say har, har, har, har

We'll go out on the ocean

And when the coast is clear

We'll eat birthday cake

Each day of the year

We'll land on a little island

And then we'll form a choir

Blow on whistles and kazoos

And dance around a fire

If we see the Navy

We will shout with pride

We are scary hairy pirates

So you better run and hide

We'll stamp our feet upon the floor

And our peg legs too

We'll take your stolen treasure

'Cause that's what pirates do

Ahoy Baby Mini Blanket!!!

The hippopotomus
Author: unknown
How far from human beauty

Is the hairless hippopotamus.

With a square enormous head

And such a heavy bottomus.

The giraffe's song

Author: Unknown

With a neck so long,

To hear his song,

You'll have to stay,

Around all day.

He begins his tune,

Just before noon.

And it comes out right,

About midnight!

Elephant Hugs

Author: Virginia Ellis

When God created elephants,

He thought, "Now, let me see ...

They must be big and loveable,

And as huggable as can be."

He experimented first with ants,

Then moved up, in size, to bugs ...

"They won't do at all,"

He said,"They give such tiny hugs."

Next He worked on cats and dogs,

Then walruses and whales;

He even went as far, As dinosaurs with tails.

He finally worked up to elephants,

Then, smiled and said with glee ...

"Elephant hugs are the greatest,

And not only that, they are free!"

"So, kids and folks can copy them,

And learn to hug their way ...

An elephant hug is an "elegant" hug,

Have you had yours today?

Introducing the Zoology Baby Mini Blanket!!!

I really think this is probably my favorite pattern to date...I just drooled over the pattern and matching stripe...both from Michael Miller. It is Modern, Baby, Cool.

not only that,

I have had the extreme pleasure of creating this adorable blankie for Tobey McGuire's Son Otis!! Yep that would be THE Tobey McGuire!!

A Walk in The Park...

2009-07-24T05:52:00.001-07:00

Well, The last 20 Days....have been chalk full of The Fun....And Not So Fun...(ahem Stitches)....and moments of change....and growing....and awareness.....

While we were enjoying a beautiful July Day....at an amazing Park...watching Peacocks...and Ducks...and fellow park goers.....

And my little Munch-i-kin...who has such an adventurous personality...that I am so very proud of....

Took to the pavement....to spread his own wings....

As I watched his little diapered bottom walk away....I have to admit I got a little sad....

The days really do go by way too fast....

And in that moment....I just wished he'd stay little.....

A Secret Garden

2009-07-02T15:20:00.000-07:00

A Secret Garden

If there were a secret garden,
What would it comprise?
Fragrant flowers, a babbling brook, butterflies?
Dragonflies, birds, and bees, there would be all of these.

But most of all, within ‘that place’,
Tranquil peace and serenity await;
Ever there for me and you to relax and renew.
So every morning before you start,
Visit the ‘secret garden’ of your heart.

Boutique Baby Personalized Bib Set...In Garden

Stay Tuned for More Fabulous Pieces from These Prints!!!

Tot Town bib and Blankie Set

2009-06-21T11:14:00.000-07:00

A Special Set that ANY Little Boy would be proud of...

To Complete the Theme, Noah and I decided to make "Construction" snacks...

Here are just a few ideas you can do....Put that bib to good use

Graham Wafer Houses Using graham wafers, icing and assorted candies, create graham wafer houses and other buildings.

Marshmallow Creations Using pretzel sticks; mini and/or regular size marshmallows, let the kids get creative and see what they can create!

Cheese Hammers Cut small blocks of hard cheese; press onto a pretzel.

House-Wiches Cut the top of a slice of bread in a triangle shape to resemble a roof shape. Spread cream cheese or peanut butter over the bread shape. Add a cheese slice, cut on the diagonal (triangle), to the roof area of the bread house. Using more cheese pieces, cucumber slices, thin carrot slices or whatever food item you can think of, add windows, and doors to the house.

The Amazing, Vibrant Colors of Mexico...

That Inspired My June Collection

Baja Baby

I walk down a meandering road

surrounded by white stucco homes

red and purple bougainvillea drip

from balconies like cherry syrup

spilt on scones.

The colors run downhill

coating the terra cotta town

with the aroma of Mexico.

I look at my feet on the buttered bubbles

of cobblestones.

I feel the burn of heat from the oven sun.

Women sweep the street and children run.

Dogs lie in the shade watching me

as I hum a song of Mexico.

Ferns, jungle green

spread their fingers and wave to me.

Palm leaves dance rhythmically

in the arms of an ocean breeze

and music sets the beat

of what I feel inside ~

vibrantly alive

on a morning walk into the soul

of my enchanting Mexico.

Can you Speak a little French?

Dodo dinette

Dodo, dinette

Dodo, dino

Ma petite poulette

Va faire dodo

Dans les bras de sa maman

Qui la berce doucement

Dodo dinette

Dodo dino.

Sleep, sleepy,

Sleep, sleep,

My little poppet

Is going to sleep

In the arms of her mommy

Who lulls her tenderly

Sleep, sleepy,Sleep, sleep.

My robot does my homework.
He helps me every night.
The trouble is he doesn't get
too many answers right.
He'd probably do better
at homework but, you see,
I built him, so he only knows
the things he learned from me.
--Kenn Nesbitt

My robot must rate as my favorite toy,

A wonderful, whirring, mechanical joy.

My robot can talk, but he'd much rather sing,

Or go to the park and play on the swings!

My robot is silver and very astute.

For instance this week he was learning the flute.

My robot's adept at a number of tests,

Like doing my homework or folding my vests!

My robot tells jokes that will tickle your sides,

Or spin a good story and much more besides.

And with a small spanner I always keep handy,

I unbolt his head to store all my candy!

Burp Cloths For a Cause

2009-05-24T05:20:00.000-07:00

I am extremely excited to be a part of the Support Military Moms Event over at The Shopping Mama....

The Event is to help raise money for some amazing causes that help Military members and their families....

I have created a special Burp Cloth set especially for the event as a giveaway item.....but felt I needed to go even a little further.....

I have listed the set in my shop: Noah Baby Boutique and until May 31st....with any purchase of this set....100% of the proceeds will go to The Snowball express....

The idea behind Snowball Express is that America should honor and pay tribute to the children of those military fallen heroes who have died while honorably serving since 9/11. In December of 2006, nearly 900 family members from all across America and the world gathered in Southern California for an unforgettable holiday gathering. Kids and widows discovered they weren't alone. And they found they weren't forgotten.

It is an amazing charity...and proud I can help these families hopefully create some new happier memories....

So stop by either The Shopping Mama or My Shop....to help.....

Well I've gone and done it....created my first Treasury on Etsy....

I think it turned out pretty faboosh if I do say so myself....

I'm ready to relish in the taste of homemade icecream.....and lay on a blanket...feeling the grass between my toes....

You’re in for a big suprise.

If you go down to the woods today,

Is gathered there for certain because,

Today’s the day the teddy bear’s have their picnic.

Polka Dots....and Disco Dots....

Polka-Dots

Have you ever wondered,The colors a zebra could be;

That maybe we're all color blind And don't know what to see.

Cause what if the stripes were purple ,And the white was bright lime green;

That would be beyond the sights Our eyes have ever seen.

But what if there weren't stripes,And just plain polka-dots;

Then it wouldn't be a zebra at all And we would name him Spots.

Now zebras are a mystery,Though they may never glow;

If they are black with white stripes The world will never know.

In The Beginning...

2009-05-11T17:16:00.000-07:00

There was a girl....who had many loves.....her husband....her son....things that were vintage....pretty....and anything baby.....and do I mean ANYTHING......

This girl had everything she could ever want....except that her prince had to leave their castle for months at a time....for he protects and serves the great land they live in....for which she was so very proud.

During these times...when the nights became long...and somewhat lonely....her fingers got to moving....and her imagination got to growing....and a the culmination of her loves...came to fruition.....

Noah Baby Boutique.....This is the story....of the girl.....the ideas....and the very cute things that are created.....Come join the story....We are so glad you are here......
