What we've done while the weather is COLD

Jon's birthday crown (partially finished).
Shhhhhh, don't tell him!

Another partially finished birthday gift for Jon. He wanted a shield (of course), but I didn't like the cheapy plastic ones from stores. This idea was actually Jack's: take a premade wooden plaque, paint it, add painted wood motifs, staple straps to back. Voila, a cool and personalized shield.

Baby blanket for baby. This one has one side of really soft flannel and the other of silky satin. Jack is jealous.

New boppy-type pillow. Brand new Boppys were selling for over $40! Yikes! I bought 1 yard of fabric, 2 bags of stuffing, and made my own. It took about 1/2 hour and I saved $30.
Not sure about this one. Check out the fashion: tie-dyed shirt, boxer shorts, navy blue dress socks, assorted guns, and the ever-present hat. Oh, and just a little bit of a cross eye. He's still pretty cute though.
