Spoiled Rotten

Noah, you are one lucky little boy.  Almost every day, a package arrives in the mail for you.  People all over the country are so excited that you are finally here! I wanted to chronicle some of the very special gifts you've received.  (You've received so many wonderful gifts, but these are the handmade ones.)

Are you spoiled, or what???  You will never want for adorable quilts!!  I got a big basket to display them all in your bedroom, and I love to pull them out for you to play on and snuggle with.  

Each of these gifts was made with so much love for you.
