Okay so I really need to step away from the machine!! However Jon David needed this shopping cart cover and the pattern was only 3 dollars on etsy. Well that is my justification! I bet Brian is thinking he should have went with the necklace for my Christmas present!

**I know the picture would have been cuter with a model but it is naptime. Well for everyone but Jenna who is upstairs singing with her cd player that has a microphone. Why we thought her voice needed to be amplified is a question I am asking myself right now!

My sewing machine was calling to me today so I made this little romper to practice making button holes. The top is a little wacky but the back of the pattern called for an opening that I didn't like. This was the most boy looking material that I had but he is cutie anyway!!

We have really enjoyed ourselves the past few days. I have lots of pictures but I will post more later. But I wanted you to see that here at the Buck house we believe that nothing should go to waste!!

Thought this was a great photo opp, kiddos thought different.

Happy Birthday Baby Jesus

The kiddos and I went over to my friend Cassie's today for a little birthday party for baby Jesus. Cupcakes, great friends, and a divine cup of coffee is my kind of afternoon!

Move over brother...

Here comes sister!!! My sweet husband gave me my christmas present last night. I am in heaven! It does button holes in one step..aww I am so excited!
So....


This morning I made J a little christmas tree to wear today.

( and Brian if you are reading this I promise I have turned it off and have started cleaning!!)

Merry Christmas!!

Away in Her Manger...

how to...

I have been asked how do you have time to sew? Well it is really all about finding 30 minutes here and there when everyone is a little bit occupied!

I have been working on a pair of pants for Ms J. My sewing machine sits on the edge of my dresser. It used to be in my closet but I had a hard time keeping one eye on the kiddos and another on my project. Today however all the little people were busy and I finished them!

She ditched the princess gear for her bathing suit this morning. She said she was a mermaid today.

and a very entertaining one!

I love this picture! I have way too many captions for this one!


still so stinkin' cute and in a week will be 9 months old


Such love!

Maybe a little too much there sis!

This is the teacher coming out in me. It is Christmas and I think there should be a Christmas program even if the participants are in their pj's.

I had a chance last weekend to get the kiddos all dressed up for a Christmas card photo shoot. Of course this came with the promise of chocolate but the results were just as sweet!

Ho Ho Ho!

Humility

I know there are times when I get the big head. Today I took the kiddos to the mall to see Santa. We had a great morning. I was even showered and had on makeup. I put Jenna in that sweet pillowcase dress I made. She was a doll. We headed off to the mall, I returned something for my cousin in Macy's then walked across the mall to Santa. Kiddos were fantastic. They even took a picture with him and I haven't had a Santa picture since Nate's first Christmas when he was 6 months old. So I am feeling good so off we go to the other side of the mall to see if I could find Jenna some new tights. On the way we ran into a couple from church and another friend from my MOPS group. As we where talking I looked down to realize that the vest that I was wearing was on INSIDE OUT!! Now how do you play that off?! I just had to laugh. Hello humility my name is Kelly...

Now since this is my blog I will show off my sweet girl in all her cuteness!

I know the saying goes that the best gifts are not under the tree, but today mine were.
