Post baby motivation

I have a very short nesting period when I'm pregnant and it's not so much nesting as forcing myself to get things done before the baby comes. But after the baby? That's a different story. For some reason, I get a ton of energy and I do a ton of random stuff for several months after I have a baby. When Gabe was born it was close to Christmas and I did a bunch of homemade gifts that year.

I'm just weird like that, I guess. My sister even said she wanted to get her baby skirt order in before I go back to normal. lol.

Anyway...this is what I did the last couple days.

Freezer jam! I grew up on freezer jam and it's my favorite jam. So, I gave it a shot. Strawberry and Strawberry/Blueberry. What do you think, should I call the latter Braberry or Strewberry or Strawbleberry? (The last one is Dave's contribution...we've been discussing this.)

Isn't it pretty?



And I made a skirt for Aria out of the left over material. There was no tulle left. I used it all up cause I kept messing up. It's a little different, but they can be cute together. And to think I roll my eyes at the pictures of me and my sisters dressed alike. I get it now and I'm totally going to put my daughter's through it, too! In my defense, Aria asked for the matching skirt!
