Another trip out west

We headed out west for a weekend to spend some time with family and to give Matt one heck of a going away party before he deploys to Afghanistan. It was a great time, and Matt has a bunch of people praying for him and his troops.
Here are a few pics from the trip!

Baby Clothes!

I'm not real sure what has come over me lately, but I have had the urge to be very "domestic" and make baby clothes and other fun things... Now, when I say baby clothes, I mean I am decorating onesies and stuff I bought at the store. So maybe the correct phrase should be "spicing up" some baby clothes. At any rate, I have pleasantly surprised myself (and others, apparently) at how well they have turned out.

Here is Rayleigh modeling the first one I did. (You may have noticed that Rayleigh is sitting up all by herself in this picture. This is becoming a more and more frequent sight at the Langdon household!)  I am so excited and pleased with how the first one turned out! I have since made 2 more, one with a Christmas tree and one with an R on it. I will have pictures of those up soon.  I am thinking of maybe starting a side business by doing stuff like this and tutus and other fun stuff...
And I am also going to really put my very rusty sewing skills to the test soon by making RayRay a reversible jacket. We'll see....
I am extra excited about making baby clothes because I found out yesterday that I will have a new baby cousin to sew for in April! Congrats Jill & Aaron! The Langdon crew is so excited for the new journey you are embarking upon! You will be outstanding parents! Will I be sewing blue or pink? hhhmmmm.... we can't wait to find out!

Teeth!

I am proud to say that little Rayleigh Jean is the proud new owner of two front teeth!! They cut through yesterday on the bottom. It was so exciting. I was totally surprised because she hadn't really been acting any differently. She was gnawing on my finger as normal when, low & behold, I felt teeth!! You can see them cut through and you can definitely feel them. My little one is growing up so quickly! (Pictures soon to come)
