A lot changes when you become a mom. All you moms and grandmas are smiling, laughing or nodding your head now I'm sure! The littlest things like taking a whole shower, using the restroom and eating a warm meal become amazing blessings and things you don't take for granted. After a few weeks with a very unhappy little Liam we have determined that he may have a sensitivity to dairy protein. Fortunately this is not uncommon with infants and there are a variety of non-dairy alternatives these days. I can highly recommend the coconut ice cream now! Now that we have that in some realm of control Liam seems to be getting more happy and has even graced us with a few smiles! That also leaves me with a few moments while he is resting to show off some more of the amazing handmade gifts we got when he was born!

This AMAZING quilt was sent to us by my friend Ellen. We love it and I really do mean we. Liam has just started enjoying time on his belly and because he can not make out colors yet he really enjoys laying on this looking at the black and white. It is such a cute pattern and the fabrics are adorable. Maybe that's because I am partial to polka dots! To keep it all together, Ellen used this fantastic rocket embroidery that compliments the rocket patterns in the quilt.

As Liam grows (6 weeks tomorrow!) I'm searching everywhere for cute boys things to sew.  I would love to have some things ready to put him in this fall. If you have any good resources please pass them along in the comment section or visit the NINA fanpage!
