My own creativity...

I am probably the least creative person you know. My friend Nat knits wonderfully beautiful things, my friend Meg makes her own diapers, our friend John takes great pictures (usually of my kids) and other friends create scrapbooks for their children....I do none of these! Now when CW and ZM are old enough I will be great at helping with homework but creative things like art are going to be at risk.

So you can imagine how incredibly proud I am of the fact that I made CW a tutu. Keep in mind I have been looking for a reason to get her a tutu for EVER. Hubby kept saying no. I finally, brilliantly if I do say so myself, figured out that if I made her be Tinkerbell for Halloween then I could get a tutu. But of course when I recommended Tinkerbell, hubby started getting all technical about it--he loves the Peter Pan story. And OBVIOUSLY none of the tutus I could find were up to 'his' standard. Since google is my friend, I figured I would just find an easy to make one and make one, cause obviously he wouldn't be dumb enough to criticize one that his wife so lovingly made lol. Luckily it is a rather easy project and I managed not to screw it--well at least I think it is perfect. It was so easy I made another one this weekend that is two shades of blue. But according to dear old Mother in law I made it too tight--thus too puffy! Luckily that wonderful baby of mine doesn't care and twirls around whenever you put it on her.
