Quiet Book

For my son's second birthday I made him a quiet book. Here is a quick look at the pages I have made. I plan on adding pages to it in the future and will post those pages as I get them accomplished.
The cover is made out of camouflaged duck cloth


A pig, a duck, and a cow finger puppets hiding in the barn. There's also a chicken hiding in the top window.

This page was inspired by the song. He loves to have me sing this song to him so I made it into a quiet book page




I had to do a clock page. Anyone who knows my son cannot doubt that.

I like to hide a treat in Daddy's wallet so he's excited to look through it



This page is perfect for the cars and the Thomas train he likes to bring to church with him

Button flowers I thought would be a great way for him to work on his buttoning skills

Birthday Crafts





Homemade Birthday Banner

Opening his quiet book
This year for my son's 2nd birthday I decided I would make him homemade things from me. I made him some pajama pants, a quilt for his bed, blocks, and a quiet book.

Car Seat Tent/Nursing Cover



I finally got this project done with six weeks left until my due date. I found the tutorial here at hippos and dinosaurs. It is one of my favorite crafting blogs to follow. I also wanted this to double as a nursing cover so I made it a bit bigger and added some boning and straps to one side. It turned out great and I can't wait until #2 gets here so we can try it out.

Paper Ornaments


I've borrowed my sis-in-law's Circut and I am in heaven. I found this really cool star project from Little Birdie Secrets, and I knew I had to make my own star ornaments for my Christmas tree.


I also made me a Christmas Sign to hang with my pictures. And I made an ornament using the Circut. I love it!

Sorry the pictures of these ornaments are blurry. But my sister came over and she showed me how to put these babies together. Again, I am loving these homemade ornaments.
