Easter Basket

While I didn't want to overdo a basket with lots of spring-themed toys that would remain in my house after the holidays, I had to make an Easter basket for my sweet boy. We decided to do Easter on the cheap and used a basket a friend bought us for Sawyer's bedroom, dyed some hard-boiled eggs, made a bunny, and bought at set of stacking ducks for bath time.

My fabric collection had been gathering dust, so I whipped up this friendly rabbit on the fly. It was basic doll construction, plus some bunny ears.

These stacking ducks are to die for, don't you think? There's nothing like a toy that doesn't offend an adult's sense of design! We've got a major water baby on our hands, so I'm looking forward to future bath time floating/stacking/pouring fun. You can even buy them at Target or Amazon!

Burp Clothes, Etc.

My dear cousin Kate will be welcoming her first baby in a few weeks, so I got myself back to the old sewing machine, dusted it off, and put together these burp clothes and a diaper cover for the little mister.

If you're going to have to be in the presence of puke and snot, you might as well have a pretty burp cloth, right? And who can resist a little bum covered with this classic checkered pattern?
