McKay is getting much to big for his crib. Time to start thinking about digging the twin bunk-beds out of storage. Along with bringing his new twin bed to the house, he needs a new big boy quilt. His Grandma (Colby's Mom) and I, (Okay, mostly her) are making a HUGE quilt for him out of all the receiving blankets I got that he has almost never, or never been small enough to use. So I cut them up into 61/2 inch squares and together, we have been sewing them together.
The top of the quilt is done!! It looks very cute! Many different patterns, randomly displayed to be pleasing to the eye and create unity. I can't wait to get it finished so we can get him in this Big Boy Bed.
Goodness. Where did the time go? I know it's cliche, but it seems like just yesterday I was bringing him home from the hospital and learning how to be a parent. Now, just a few days later (seems like) I am getting him ready for his own bed. One he will probably have until at least high school. Time fly's. It really does. My baby is a full fledged Toddler now. A very big Toddler, who wears 2T clothes.
Okay, enough of that. Can't wait to see the whole quilt finished! It is going to be really cute! Oh-and the best part, is that there was enough fabric left over to cut out 41/2 inch squares to make a crib size quilt for a perhaps future sibbling. (I said, perhaps future.)
