I still need to get a crib for the new baby. And figure out which double stroller to get and sell the single stroller and a whole 23 item list of large “to-do”s before this girl arrives (like GO TO THE DENTIST). But, instead of all of that stressful stuff, I decided to start her summer 2013 wardrobe instead. So what.
Aren’t these shorts cute? The pattern is from my sponsor Petite Kids Boutique, the Ceci shorts. They have little pleated pockets and knotted ties on the hems. The pattern is really easy to follow and made me feel like I really accomplished something. (That’s the best kind of pattern, you know?). Fun sewing, cute shorts!
Check out Petite Kids if you need a pattern for KCWC! I also love this cute Maia Dress and the bubble tunic!
2 days down, 5 to go!

10/09 at 1:29 PMYou already know how much I love these shorts! But what I was going to say is that I was going to sell my single stroller too before #2 came then he came 5 weeks early, so I never did and it and it ended up being a really good thing! There have been so many times when we go somewhere and my oldest can just walk even though he was so young. Also if we have ever each had a boy it’s better cause that double stroller is HUGE! Just my opinion but I bet you will still end up using the single :) how far Part will your kiddos be?

10/09 at 2:56 PMI kept my single stroller too. If you go somewhere with only one child you don’t really want to use the double stroller. We did buy a Joovy Scooter X2 Double Stroller (my son picked the lime green color) and I love it. More importantly, my older child loves it and loves to ride in it. My children are 2 years and 5 days apart. The Joovy has tons of storage room under the seats, a giant shade canopy, both seats recline fully independent of each other, and it fits through standard doorways. It was worth every penny.
BTW, the shorts are too cute. I think I need a pair for my daughter for next summer.

do you have an ergo carrier / moby wrap? i love snuggling the little babies up (especially winter babies) and you could just push cohen in the single. double strollers are handy but they’re also huge giant beasts! we’ve never owned one. ;)

10/11 at 1:53 PMThese are so cute. I just finished my first pattern by this shop and was really happy with it too. I need to focus on cold clothes so I’m trying to block out the cute summer stuff!
I use my double stroller, and there are times it is a must- but I agree it took awhile before I felt I NEEDED it. I found a great carrier for baby number 2 (something I never managed with 1) It was a lifesaver to have my hands available still.
