Crafts| Weaving

I am currently weaving my 1st project. I am unsure why I thought it was "so easy" but it's not. It is hard work and now that I am weaving it is very rewarding. My first project is a baby wrap. What is a baby wrap? It is a long piece of fabric that you use to 'carry' your baby! Here are some pictures....

Comes with the famous "Sleepy Dust"!

Picture A Day

A picture a day for 365 days

This is a little self challenge for me. I feel like 2012 flew by and I don't have nearly enough photos of my little. I feel blessed to wake up everyday and live it! I also have started obsessing about Project Life by Becky Higgins. This is a new way of scrap booking/journaling! I always wanted to get into traditional scrap booking but just didn't feel like I was creative enough to make it truly a work of art. Project life to the rescue!

I leave you with some of my favorite pictures of Ike for the past 9 days. I will try and post my favorites each week. As soon as I can order the new Project Life binder and journaling cards I will update you on my progress.

On the Fly: Bottle Warmer Review

My 1st review on the new blog!

Simple Solution...for heating baby's bottle. Perfect for air travel, car trips, game days, shopping...anytime you are on the go!

Easy to Use...2 easy steps to the perfect bottle temperature.

Works with Most Brands...such as AVENT™, GentleFlow™ from Gerber™ and BornFree™. (from the On the Fly Bottle website)

I used a Life Factory Glass Baby Bottle. 
It comes with 3 warmers and one cover (comes in sm or lg).
I have 4oz bottle so the sm cover fit perfectly

This is from the On the Fly website. 


Directions

1. Place prepared bottle in On The Fly™ BottleSOC & pull up outer layer of the BottleSOC

2. Wrap air activated warmer around inner layer of BottleSOC, pull down outer layer of BottleSOC

A perfect bottle will be ready for your baby in 30 minutes or less. Never overheats.

30 min later...it was WARM! 

I was so pleased with how warm it was and it stayed warm all day!

It was not too hot for baby to hold and it was a cold day when I tested

so I think Isaac enjoyed holding on to it! The concept is like a 

hand warmer but amazing last so much longer!

I really enjoyed this review and any mom who is on the go will love this warmer. 

This will be perfect for our road trips!
