29 things list updated

I almost forgot about my 29 things before I turn 30 list?  Well that 30th birthday is coming up in the next couple of months and the list deserves an update... well, really it needs a reality check.  haha.  So, here's the update: the list has been changed "to"9 things!  Get it?!

While I was serious about accomplishing these things, I didn't plan on a cross-country move or a pregnancy.  Even though I got a few items completed, the truth is that there is no way I am going to accomplish all that I wanted to.  I'm excited about this revised list!

1.  refashion something for me

2.  kids room decorated + find a kitchen table

3.  be on time to church each week

4.  fill my 120 page journal

5.  weed + plant some flowers  

6.  play the guitar and sing with my boys

7.  make some homemade bread

8.  sew something for my son and daughter

9.  read a book

onesies

My son is not an infant anymore but I still like him to wear onesies.  I think I am worried about that time when he took his diaper off and got poo all over.  And onesies are just cute.  But as a friend recently posted about disliking the typical baby boy decor for onesies, I too feel the same.  However when I saw these I thought they were pretty cool.

When my sister was visiting last month, she came home from the MoMA and told me about a cool book of iron-ons.  I looked it up, liked it and bought it.  A couple weeks later, my boy has some new onesies.  I have some long sleeve ones still to use so, if I like them on him, I'll make some more, if not, I have another idea I'm planning on trying.

*  The onesies were totally affordable and the Sukie iron-ons super easy to do.  Give it a try!

//  I used to not care what my baby looked like but I'm starting to these days.  That's probable because he's walking now and nothing is more cute than an adorably dressed boy toddling around, his big diapered booty sticking up in the air as he gets up from a fall.  I want my boy to look good!  I am sort of on a quest to find cute clothes for him.  I mean, every 6 months his wardrobe literally changes as he grows so much.  Its pretty fun.  I wish I could justify changing my own wardrobe that often.  But, then we'd be having some TROUBLE$.

I look forward to bettering myself this, my 29th year of life!

sunday skirts :: dress refashion

I am really happy to have this new skirt.  I refashioned it from a dress I had for a long time but only wore once.  I searched all over the place for some thick elastic and was so happy that I found some on Amazon.com.  Now, all I have to do is figure out what else to use my 9 yards of thick black elastic for.  This was such an easy refashion, especially for me, a beginner!

a list of 29 things

I recently turned 29.  I am in shock.  My life is flying by and I am not where I wanted to be.  This list is my way of making sure I feel good when that next birthday comes.  It should be really fun and gratifying checking things off of my list.   

I'm excited to attempt to do all of these things.  Looking over the list again, I'm going to be really busy this year.  It should be fun!
