New Duvet cover for Audrey

With only 2 more days until Halloween, I have been trying to finalize plans and Audrey's costume for all the festivities! My Grandma is an amazing seamstress and can make amazing things with all kinds of fabrics so I asked her if she could make a banana for the monkey costume Audrey will be wearing! She went out of her way and made the banana out of a yellow terry cloth washcloth so Audrey can suck on it since she is teething! She drew lines on it and even made a cute little stem! I wish I had my Grandma's talent,there are so many things I wish I could make! On top of making Audrey her banana, my Grandma remembered that I have been asking for a duvet cover and comforter for Audrey, so to my surprise she made this gorgeous duvet cover with a comforter inside with some very adorable and funky fabric! I absolutely love it and it is big enough for Audrey to use it for years! On top of these items she has made me several burp rags out of really funky and adorable fabric! I am so grateful to have my Grandma around and Audrey is one lucky girl to have her GIGI make her cute things that will last a very long time! Besides the surprise visit from my Grandma, today was crazy, with all the cleaning and organizing I have been trying to do that I didn't even bother to make dinner! We had enough leftovers from yesterday which was Cheesy Enchilada hamburger helper for which I added strips of tortilla's and salsa Verde to the dinner to spice it up!Now that Audrey is down for the night I can get some reading done and maybe a shower! Tomorrow is her GI appointment at Mary Bridge Children Hospital so we will be at the hospital for a while!
