Cutest Kids in the Whole Wide World!


Okay, so I tried to be cool and make a slideshow of the various poses appear in this posting but I couldn't figure it out. Once I talk to Master Nerd (my brother Rick) I'll switch it so you can see both poses. But even with just this one I think you get the idea--super cute kids, super cute pajamas! Notice how the fabrics all coordinate? Amazing. The most amazing part isn't visible in the picture--Monroe has tops & bottoms in the stripe pattern and not only do the stripes line up on the top, but they also match up with the bottoms. I am quite proud of that, as it took me a good solid hour of planning to make that happen. (NOTE: for those of you who are worried, Elise (the oldest one, in the back) does not actually have a blob above her eye, that is just from the scanner)).

These are my 6 nieces and nephews. Later this week we'll be delivering PJs to Jerel's 10 nieces and nephews in Utah. Jerel is nicer than me and his kids all have fabric that matches their personalities, hobbies, and style instead of all matching. It won't make for as cute of a picture, but it will make for happier kids. (Although you could--and should--argue that I am still the nicer one since I actually did all the sewing.) We are supposed to leave tomorrow afternoon to drive down to Utah, but since we currently have about a foot of snow with a layer of ice on top, and since I-84 is closed, it's not looking promising. We'll make it down there, we're just not sure if it'll be before Christmas. Cross your fingers, or pray, or do a little dance, or whatever it is you do for good luck--we need it!
