Well, from time to time I refer to my mommy friends online called the Diaper Sewing Divas. These women have become my friends ever since I joined this community when I was pregnant with Elias. They have this fun program that you work your way into once you’ve been on the board for awhile. (For security reasons of course. I mean, it’s not like I just put my address out there for people to send me stuff. They have a system to securely get packages to people without just posting an address list.) Through this gifting program, they’ve been on a rampage lately to give little baby showers to all the expectant mamas, and I guess, today was my day to open up my mailbox, and find 4 packages in there of homemade goodness. They work really hard to coordinate the packages to arrive on the same day so the mama is “showered” with baby gifts.
Want to see what I got?
This adorable handmade felt ornament. It’s it beautiful?
A little handmade baby outfit. Handmade knit top, fleece pants, and babylegs converted from children’s knee-highs. I’ve never had baby legs before so this is quite exciting for me!
A tiny little flannel bib and matching burp cloth…
A small diaper cover with a minky exterior. It’s like super furry soft fabric. Blue is my favorite color, so it better be this little girl’s as well!
See? Diva made!
And last but not least…
2 medium sized diaper covers and a corn filled warm/cold therapy pack for after birth.
I’m very happy to get little notes and gifts from these sweet women, and I’m very happy that I can cross “Make a few extra diaper covers” off my to-do list! I was hoping for 2-3 more covers than I had last time around, and I guess I got my wish!
Not shown is one more gift that I feel like I should mention because it’s so darling, but I’m going to resist the urge to go up 2 flights of stairs to get it in the baby’s room and take pictures of it. (I’m typing in the basement.) When I made it to the second trimester, one of the divas sent me a teeny little newborn fitted diaper and sock monkey PUL cover to help me celebrate making it to the second trimester. She knew after losing the previous pregnancy, making it to the second trimester was a big deal for me. These ladies are so sweet, and I’m so happy to know them!
