More Fun than Hair-Bows


On Sunday we blessed the babies because I felt like we needed to since Reese keeps running away to the hospital, and I didn't want to wait until they are two or something. (P.S. We've made it past the 5 day mark, when the little turkey usually goes back, knock on wood.)

Anyhow, I have been conjuring up outfit ideas and decided to go with purple. I know, they're boys! But, I liked my shirt. Selfish, I know.


So, I made the kids matching ties and the babies matching Sunday pants, my mom made Oakley new pants and a skirt for me.

And, it was fun. The end. (I know, totally un-cohesive, my brain turns off when kids are crying.)

Sara, that is a great family picture. Soo dang cute.

Congrats on your family's big day! And purple is fine for boys. They're going to pretty much snicker at any clothes you dress them in every time you go through pictures anyway. Now if it were little girls, that's different. Then they'll think you traumatized them for life for something you dressed them in when they were 2! LOL
And fingers crossed on the 5 days and counting milestone!

OH, I'm so sad we missed it!!! They look so good - I hope he starts liking home better :) I stil can't believe you make them little ties!

Carol said...

your family picture is very cute! i love it! can't wait to see you twice next week, so glad you are my hygentist :)

What a cute family- it's great to see you all together! And I'm impressed you made little ties and pants! I've got to get the courage to try that- I love them!

They are more fun than hair bows! You guys look so good. I am so happy that they are home and doing well, I hope that continues!

Kirk and Aly said...

You guys looked adorable! Your little buddies are all so cute!

You better be careful with the matching thing though. Kirk swears that's why his dad was inactive for a short period growing up, because his mom made him matching vests to go with all the kids' outfits. Hmmm.

Cookie Mama said...

I saw the matching ties and wondered where you found such tiny ones that also matched Oakley. I can't believe you made them, I am so impressed.

Love the pictures, you guys are the cutest!

K that picture is so fun! Oakley looks so cute all posed and cheesy to the camera :) and might I express my astonishment and jealousy at your sewing skills! You made the boys sunday pants? and ties? That is the cutest thing! I am really wanting one of your boys right now!

The Jones Fam said...

Wow you guys look great! Your boys are all so handsome. And I totally approve of purple ties (I'm sure that will mean a lot coming from their uncle who is occasionally mistaken as being gay). Okay, I'm going to go listen to some Cher now.

Hope Reece can come home again soon- and that he'll be able to stay!

Cute, cute, cute. But since I haven't read your blog in a while, it has emotional & physically drained me. So I'm going to go lay down. Perhaps, I should come get Oakley so you can do the same. Ever need anything, don't hesitate. I'm serious. This is not just a courtesy offer. :)

Heather said...

Stop making ties. Go get a pedicure or some such nonsense.

Brent and Brooke said...

Can I steal Oakley? I love his cute smile! Sara you are so cute with your matchy outfits, I still want your shirt that I love.

KatieJ said...

I can't find your e-mail but THANKS for the kind offer to make me a tie! You are probably the busiest person I know right now but if you decide to make another tie sometime, let me know and I'll come watch you and hold a baby or two! Thanks Sara!
