My new favorite pillow

I made some new pillows that I love

check out the tutorial here

I love how my first one turned out and I am still working on the second.

I made these ones for my bed

The tutorial makes it for a pillow 18 by 18. I did my 12 by 12. 

So I cut the fabric 13 by 13.

 I made my large circles 3 inches around and the smaller one 2 inches. 

I didn't bring the white pillows to texas so picture it with those and also with another one of these pillows
 (also more pillows to come when I make them)

Ps: here is my next project pillow isn't it darling?

its off the same website

13 weeks=2nd Trimester

13 weeks: Our Little Peach

To our little peanut: You are the size of a peach! Wahoo. You grew a lot this week almost a whole inch. You now are about 2.9 inches and .81 ounces. You are now forming teeth and vocal cords. Your head is now only one third the size of your body. You also have fingerprints! 

This week we had a tornado warning in Dallas. The news said a tornado touched down about 10 miles from our apartments but it only stayed down for about 1 minute. We had to hide in a stairwell with about 30 other people. I forgot to mention last week how I had got really sick one day. It was a horrible day but I don't believe it was because of you. I think it was because of a little bug because some other people got it too out here. Then this week I got sick again and didn't feel good at all one day and I believe that was because of you. We have moved into the second trimester however, so I really hope no more sickness for mommy. Since the tornado warning day its been very nice. We have gone to the pool everyday and we even went swimming today. We have made banana bread, chicken pot pies, and really good taco salads this weeks. You had a little taste of my favorite candy yesterday when dad brought me a Symphony Bar. It was delicious. We fly back to Utah in a week and a half for two doctors appointments. The second doctors appointment we get to find out what gender you are! Be good to me this week.

love, mommy and daddy

Week 12: Our Little Plum

To our little peanut: You are the size of a plum! If you are about average size you would be 2.1 inches and .49 ounces! Almost all of your systems are fully formed. We are living in Dallas Texas right now. Your daddy works for a company called Vivent. He installs and makes us money.  

This week was your cousins Pax's first birthday. We had a BBQ at the pool but the pool was a little cold so we didn't swim. We went to the Dallas Zoo with your aunt Stephanie, cousin Pax, your soon to be friends Courtney, Haley and Zoey. We also laid out at the pool and went to a mall here.

Daddy thinks you are a boy, of course. According to the Chinese calendar you are a girl. So your mommy thinks your are a girl! Whatever you turn out to be we will be excited! 

love, mommy and daddy

Dallas Apartment

When we first got to Dallas Vivent had not made arrangements for apartments

So we had to stay in an extended stay for a couple days.

Now we have apartments!!

They are super nice apartments but we don't have furniture so I took pictures off the website to show you.

I love it here. 

{We are even member at a country club for living here, I don't even know what we are entitled to}

Our pool is amazing.

We have two pools this is my favorite of the two
