Baby sandals & watermelon battles

Our neighbour Jason told me that some of Stacy’s friends are throwing her a surprise baby shower on Thursday.  So I set to work!  And last night I finished the cutest pair of baby sandals ever!  But I’ll let you be the judge!

I was so thankful I had these colours in my stash.  I was also happy to find these buttons because I didn’t think I had any!  The pattern was amazing and she had so many other adorable patterns in her etsy store.  I chose these because they seemed perfect for a baby born in Costa Rica!

After getting the perfect photos of these cute sandals the girls and I went out to blow some bubbles.  Why are bubbles so entertaining?  Margo, using her Spanish said “Mom, can I blow the burbujas?”  She is getting better and better!

She looks like she is six years old in this photo.  I can’t believe how BIG she is getting!

Margo helped Thelma blow some bubbles.

And this one is for Margo’s fans back home!

Now, I have learned something about Thelma.  She is a watermelon fiend.  No joke.  She scraps every bit of pink from the rind and then keeps on going.  And if a bowl of watermelon is put out for everyone, she will literally eat every single piece.  Matthew and Jesse witnessed this on their visit.  She is a watermelon monster.

Buts she is cute while eating it!  Well… until I have to pry the rind from her fingers while she screams at the top of her lungs.

I put Thelma down for her nap and Jason set up a kiddie pool for the girls.  Larry, Jason, Matt and I sat in the shade and talked for hours while the girls played.  It was lovely.

 

PS-  This video is for family missing Thelma… its just Thelma being a little wierdo!

  1. Margo’s wearing the shirt I got her ;) !!!

  2. Super baby Thelma loves watermelon. She was walking around the pool with at least 3 rinds in her hand and still chopping on a piece in her other.

  3. Those baby sandals are amazing! You definitely picked the perfect colours!

    Thelma is a force to be reckoned with! The video is so cute…i love her “uh oh” when she falls but then is so happy to be playing in the rocks.

  4. Thelma also kneels on the rocks – no problem. Nice hearing her little voice. Margo is growing so tall! Miss you guys.
    p.s. Love the sandals!

  5. You are amazingly skilled with the needles Rebecca and also at weaving a tale. Love you all.

  6. I love all the feedback I got from this post! Thanks so much everyone!

    To Erika- she loves that shirt! Who wouldn’t!
