Can I show off...

...something I made for my baby boy while I was preggo? It's a cross stitch I started it last July and I did it on the bus to and from work everyday. Then after he was born, I added the name, date & weight. I had it professional framed which cost a few bucks (!!) but it was worth it.

I was taking it down from the wall while I'm packing and I realized I didnt even take a pic of it. So here it is:

Sorry I dont know why it's so big, I'm uploading from a new site.

Elizabeth that is beautiful. I love that the pics are big because in the bottom corner I can see where it says 'From Mommy with love'. This is something that he will treasure forever.

beautiful Elizabeth. I enjoy cross stitching- but not counted- it hurts my eyes way too much. You did a great job on this.

Liz, it's beautiful! My favorite part is 'For Lukie, From Mommy with Love' with the little hearts around it!

One of my best friends made me a cross stitch for Paul - they are so nice to display!
