6 Days...

aka: "Panic Sets In"

I've wracked my brain trying to come up with some sort of gifts for the nannies at the transition house. Others have brought little gift sets with soap and lotion, or manicure sets and stuff like that. I don't think it needs to be anything over-the-top, but I did want it to at least be thoughtful. I did hear someone else mention the nannies coming and going carrying lots of stuff, so I settled on tote bags (and it helps that that's the one thing that I can sew pretty well). So here's the first one. Whaddaya think?




They fold up nice and flat too.
