This is my first blog ever! I've always wanted to start one, but never found the time. Now I have even less time and I'm starting a blog. Heehee :)
My name is Kristin and I will be 27 years old on Saturday. I married the love of my life on 11/7/2009 after dating for 2 1/2 years. I found out that I was pregnant with our first child in mid December...it was a big surprise! I had to have 2 ultrasounds to find out the gender because we had a stubborn baby that wouldn't show us the goods! We found out at my second ultrasound appointment that it was a girl! It took the poor ultrasound tech a full hour just to get a tiny peak.
I was so excited to be having a baby girl. I ran out the very next day to get some cute outfits and hair bows. This is when I ran into a huge problem. I couldn't find any cute bows to match the outfits we had bought. I even looked at some Boutiques in the area for something custom looking. I found some cute things, but there was no way I was going to pay $20+ for a bow!
After seeing all of the hair bows, I thought it looked easy enough that I could do it. With my work schedule and being so sick during my pregnancy, I really never got a chance to try it. My little tater tot decided to come 3 weeks early and I was on leave for 6 weeks. This was the perfect time to try my hand at bow making!
I sat down at the dinning table while Madison was sleeping and just went for it. I just used some scrap ribbon I had lying around and made my very first bow! I think I made Madison about 6 bows that day. I sent photos to my Mom so she could see. She then sent the photos to her friends, and they were asking how much! I made my very first order for 6 hair bows the very next week!
Pretty Prissy Baby Boutique was born, and I was so excited!
