Yesterday Sharon (Wayne's mom) was nice enough to help me make the curtains for Lexi's two little windows. Because of their unique size, it was impossible to buy ready-made curtains, especially blackout ones. So I bought the same curtains we have up on her big window, and a big blackout curtain to hem down, and Sharon helped me literally every step of the way (I'm so lame, I have no idea how to sew) to make them. They look really simple, but I can't believe I actually got a sewing project done! Again, I couldn't have done it without Sharon, so big big THANK YOU to her. Now my two priority projects are done. So... the baby is supposed to come now, right? I need another project to pass the time, I think. It was suggested that I paint the other three walls in Nameless Baby's room the lightest blue from the dots, and I'd love to do that, but I think I should give myself a break for at least a couple of weeks before I dive into another big thing. I already have a flower stencil and stencil paint, so I may stencil-paint a flower border along the bottom of Lexi's big blackout shade. That should occupy me for a bit...

Here are a few pictures of my simple little curtains. I think they're pretty cool... for me.
