I totally forgot to share this on my blog until I saw it on pinterest! Obviously, a one-year old doesn't have a birthday wishlist and to be honest there wasn't much Greta needed. I make my girls a brithday dress each year, and we usually give them a book or two. In Greta's case, we gave her Hug Time because she's our cuddler and always wants hugs and kisses. But I wanted to do something special for her, something that could maybe be a keepsake. I embroidered a Princess and The Pea pattern for her that I had come across on Etsy. It was so fun to work on! Holly really enjoyed observing my progress too. It now hangs in the girls' room. It's kind of perfect because Greta is a little princess. She had this sleeper when she was still small that said "Princess" on it and we would roll our eyes at her because we were always getting up with her in the night. She's very peticular about certain things and can be extremely sensitive - I'm sure she would feel that pea! Lately, she's been putting on a "shy" act. Yes, Greta's shy and Holly launches into a full-on conversation with anyone that glances in her general direction! They are such a funny pair!
