Another Homemade Gift + Weekend To Do List

Knowing that the bird mobile went over well, I decided that I could try one more time on a homemade shower gift. At Karissa's shower a woman gave her burp cloths that had been accented with ribbon, which made them one of a kind. Tonight I have a shower for a friend in the ward who is having twin boys this spring. I figured that with 2 babies burp cloths would definitely be on the list of things they would need. I bought a pack of Gerber Cloth Diapers and added blue and green ribbons to the edges. I think they are cute! I love the idea that I can have a fall back for any baby shower. It is perfect because it is a quick make and can be coordinated with anything mommy-to-be has in the nursery.

This weekend I am setting only 3 goals.
1. Get up in time to go to the temple with the Relief Society Sisters (meeting at 7:30).
2. Finish 2 kitchen chairs
3. Fill 2 tubs with things for storage from our WAY TOO MESSY second bedroom.

Wish me luck!!!!
