The best dressed baby on the block

Sleep has been hard to come by lately, at least at normal hours. In the last week, there has been more than one day where I didn't fall asleep until the sun was up. These nighttime hours have been good for getting things done though. I finally (just 2 years late) finished our wedding scrapbook and have been able to start on one from last year's summer vacation. We also have a lot of plain baby items that have been spiced up. Here's this week's batch:

I actually didn't make the onesies above recently. In looking for something in a box of fabric crafts, I found these two that I started maybe a year ago. The one on the left is where I learned it is nearly impossible to embroider onesies by hand due to the loose weave.

These are store-bought iron-ons we found at Jo-Ann's. If you can't read them, they say, "future tree hugger" and "save our jungle friends." (We chose to overlook the fact that lions and giraffes don't live in jungles, and perhaps these two are just there to support their tiger friend.)

I was in a very Amelie mood. The one on the left is stenciled in green and the one on the right is a homemade transfer.

These are a little more difficult to see in the pic. The one on the left is from The Little Prince and the one on the right is an antique typewriter; both are homemade transfers on onesies I dyed.

These are both homemade stencils. Oh, our baby is going to be so awesome, or at least the best dressed baby on the block.

The ones on the left and right are homemade transfers (international breastfeeding symbol; The Little Prince), and the one in the middle is a stencil of a whale who turned out disappointingly menacing.

I did not make these awesome diaper covers, Bummis did. We just got them in the mail today (after ordering them yesterday!) and were super excited. These are the three colors that we got in the newborn size. The lovely green one over a cloth diaper is being modeled by McIntire, a bear David won at the Salem Willows. They are just too cute. Reason #147 to cloth diaper: incredibly cute diaper covers.

I also did not make this shirt, another crafter did. It was a gift from our friend Gail that we found at Salem CultureFest. However, as our Salem baby's first Salem gear, we thought it worth posting.
