Baby Accessories Guru

Did you mom ever sew?  Mine sewed all our baby clothing and then through most of our teens.  I used to hate it.  Then I got to buy something off the rack!! yeah!!  It was horrible.  I had no idea I had a personal custom tailor at home.  Of course by then she went to work and sewing wasn’t a priority.  She had the gall to think I had to learn how.

Well I learned how.  It’s been an,uh experience.  Babies and toddlers are much easier to sew for.  Men’s pants are impossible and women, some anyway, have too many curves.  Men shirts are okay, but for the most part, I’d rather crochet.  I find crocheting soothing, whereas sewing can be murder on your mood.

Another day another diaper.  I remember wanting to save the planet by using cloth diapers.  They sagged, bagged and geez it was fun rinsing them out.  It was impossible to find baby tees that would cover all the bulk.

One day I cam home from work and the washer was filled to the top with extra hot, bleach filled diapers.  And, of course, the washer died right there.  Needless to say, I told my wife - disposable only and start potty trraining NOW!  Okay I was a little hasty, he was only 2 months old at that time.
