I'm really sorry-- no pics, my camera has taken a field trip for the day.
I was so excited to see something in my huge size. I got a beautiful orange fluttery skirt from Sarah (SewSarahSew) I haven't worn a short skirt in a very long time, and my legs are really pasty, but its very comfy and fun. I'm wearing one of the headbands Shecki sent as well. Lorelei is in the fabulous swing top set that BeckyDyane sent-- orange too. We're in heaven!

Ambresmom and I made quite the haul

Mama swap

Orange skirt

Blue skirt-- also from SewSarahSew. It fits Tiff right now, but she's still slimming from her surgery, so I'm hoping totake posession (and try to lose enough to get into it lol)

Notebook and pen sets from SewSarahSew-- I got a batik, Tiff got a pretty mint green. Very fun

Dragonfly perfume bottle from craftykitty-- this is just awesome. I really love it.

Yellow and brown monkey totes from patchworkpixie-- I got dibs on the yellow lol

Rose perfume and bathsalts from Sunflower-- its a good thing we got two!

Embroidered dishtowels from Tawnya-- I love the sun motif. I got both only by serious negotiating.

Topped dishtowels from nanirose-- the negotiation rofl. Tiff got both of these. The apples are perfect for her kitchen.

Headbands from Shecki-- I really need to make some of these, I wear all the onesI've got constantly

Cotton hemp dishcloths from Branwyn-- These look really scrubby, can't wait to try 'em out

Garlic potholders-- I just love the colors on these, very classy

2 medium lwi t-shirts with kanji iron ons from LaVieBoheme-- These are gorgeous! I really wish that they fit someone. Dh is the right size but I don't think a pink/purple t-shirt with "beauty" is going to work. I'm seriously cnsidering cutting them into dresses for L. The colors are incredible

Trinket boxes, bracelets and magnets from Kimmieboo-- My oldest nieces are going to love these. I did swipe the braceltes though lol. They're just gorgeous

Pursetinis from nutmeg-- this is such a fun idea

handsoap and washie from frogsand ladybugs-- smells yummy

bath salts and milk bath from Korwynne-- I love having stuff like this on hand for gifts


Kids

Lorelei got oodles of clothes lol. They're all really cute, thanks.

Swing set from BeckyDyane
2 pairs jammie pants from patchworkpixie
2 short and headband sets from nanirose
jammie pants from Shecki
LWI t-shirt from elfmaker
blue t-shirt from LaVieBoheme
3 peasant blouses from me rofl

My nephew- to-be also got quite a bit

2 pairs of soft shoes from SewSarahSew
2 dyed tanks from mum2conor

We got some cute crocheted socks that ambre though were fabulous. She loved the friendship scarves from nutmeg as well and we got 2 sets that matched, so all the girl cousins are going to be matchy. She's a bag fiend too and claimed the summer themed tote frogsandladybugs sent to hold her swimming stuff. The bright orange boa from rebeckahK was also right down her alley. She stuffed everything into the toybag from willischomp and was content.

We also got 2 of the fairy plaques Sunflower sent, a Bob the Builder dress-up vest a really nice pair of 12 month pants from Auntie Rachel, and 2 crocheted nests from tmrhopkins. What a great way to wake up this morning. Thanks!
