For the last 3 days, my Son has decided that sleep is for the weak. He wants to PLAY PLAY PLAY! No matter how tired he is, he just struggles to sleep. We can’t Hold Him Down to sleep, Cuddle with him, read to him, sooth him, even giving him milk won’t work! The kid has just refused to sleep.
This has also meant Mommy & Daddy have not got much sleep. Today I’ve been exhausted. I keep thinking this kid has GOT to find a way to sleep… and then he did.

on the couch. Yes, perhaps that is what he needed. Time away from his bed. See sometimes I just need a little reminder that things don’t have to follow any particular “way” or “plan” to work out. Lesson here: Sleep is sleep, on a bed or not!

After reading up on all the beautiful things Dana Posted about for Celebrate Boy over at MADE, I decided it was time I finally try making some clothing. I’ve been doing great sewing various household things, but it was time to try clothing, after all, that is what I got into this sewing thing for anyway.
I used her Knee Pad Pants tutorial as inspiration. I can’t say my pants are as well made, but hey, they are the first article of clothing I’ve ever made! I’m just glad the holes are in all the right places, and they are wearable!

Hopefully soon I’ll find time to sew a second pair. I learned a LOT this time around, and I am certain I can do better. In the meantime, perhaps I should just hem up the pair I already made (note to self).
I tend to get very frustrated when trying new things, however I’m glad I gave this a go! In addition to another (more properly made) pair of pants, hopefully in the next week I can make my little guy a shirt to match!
