baby baby baby

i went to a baby shower last weekend so i whipped up a little coordinating set a la homemade by jill.

i just made a few burp cloths, appliqued the onesie, knit my fav baby hat, and made a little brag book. these brag books are my new favorite craft. they are kind of like oragami made into a little book.
here it is all opened up...you can see it folded up in the first picture. its kind of confusing to see how it works just in pictures, but you basically fold paper so that it folds all up nice and neat. then you can decorate your book and give it away so someone can add pictures!

this is the back side... see the covers on the ends?? if you all are interested it could probably put a tutorial together someday. its not my own idea...my mom learned about it from a friend and taught me... but i think i can still show you, right??

i was wondering what you ended up making, very cute! yes you should totally do a show and tell on the brag book. think of all the grandparents that NEED this!

i am absolutely in LOVE with it all and he will definitely be wearing the hat home from the hospital!! :) noah is in love with the thickness of the burp clothes too....although honestly i might use one of them for an on-the-go diaper pad!! i am just in love with all of it. i can't wait for pictures of him to fill up the brag book!! thank you so so much for making the trip!! love you!!
