Kyle Matthew Bogdanov

My newest nephew made his grand and fast entrance into the world this Friday @ 5:30am! He weighed in at 7 lbs exactly, a perfect little 7. We are enjoying have a new baby around to love on. Below are some pics of the little guy as well as of the proud siblings. I was able to spend some quality time with Caleb and Katelyn as Janette and Matthew were in the hospital spending some bonding time with the baby.

I feel so blessed to be able to welcome 2 nephews and 1 niece over the next few months. Can't wait to meet my little Zoie girl(september 14 or sooner) as well as little guy Poling (beginning of October and Ryan and Rissa are still working on a name) It is such a joy to be an Auntie!


Love the head of hair!


How sweet is this!


Proud Uncle




Katelyn is so sweet with her baby brother. She loves to hold him and pats him gently like a proud sister.


Big Brother and Big Sister shirts Janette made the kids






Ok this is just for fun! Caleb and Katelyn were being so silly in the tub the other night, I just had to take their picture!

Sewing Contest

So I am finally coming up for air from a very busy last 2 months. I will be working on some new posts to update on all the happenings of the summer. But I just had to share quickly how excited I was to win a sewing contest. I made 2 coordinating dresses for my dear friends twin daughters and decided to submit a picture my friend took of them. Well lo and behold we WON!! I am sure it totally helped that the my little models were just as cute as can be and my friend takes amazing pictures. You can see for yourselves here the winning photos.

I absolutely love this dress pattern. It is so easy and fun and is sure to be a winner. It was one of my best finds on etsy and I have shared this pattern with so many others. Feel free to get inspired to make one of your own. More project pics to come. ;)
