As a whole, we are doing pretty good. We've been slammed with a ton of dr visits and copays lately but hopefully things are settling down! With D's help I've gotten my wire frame finished to hold all the bows I've been making for the ones I've haven't sold yet! I just got the shipment from Diapers.com for the diaper cakes I've been wanting to try too! D got all the stuff he needs to make about 5 of those guitars he's wanting to make. We are almost ready to start taking pics and start the Etsy store and FB store! I'm so excited, and although I'm aware that it could take months, I'm still positive about the whole venture. We are going to try so hard to make something work. After Isaac goes to bed, Landon is chilling on the couch and the big kids are settling down, I work on stuff and D works on his. Stuff we like doing, and when it starts working out it will be so beneficial to Isaac.
We are kinda confused about the whole "branding" thing, and paying someone to help us with that kinda stinks, but I want it to be the same: from the business cards to Etsy banners, logo and possible carryover to a fb page. I've got more research to do!
As I'm almost done with my own "bling" project, I've decided that my next fun thing to try is soap making. I've done some research on it and I can't wait to start!!! The bows, diaper cakes, guitars...well that's fun for us to do for Isaac. The soap is something that can be both...to sell for Isaac and fun and useful for us anyway :)
I think I have narrowed down or come up with a name for all this stuff...
Cute Creations for Courtney
But...if anyone can come up with something with Isaac in it, or anything better PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!! D isn't totally sold on the name, so we are still open for anything.
Originally I was thinking a soft green and cream for the colors, but I'm still flexible on that too. D doesn't give a poop ;)
The cloth diapers are absolutely wonderful. I wish, I wish, I wish I would have done this YEARS ago!!!! I'm hoping that the Mother's Day out will go for it, but not holding my breath.
Isaac's therapy is coming along. He can sign please, more and all done. D has gotten him to say "go" a few times and that is super exciting for us! We had to stop the additional speech therapy, we can't afford it anymore.
I got to have lunch Sunday with 2 of my favorite people and probably talked their poor ears off. Thanks for the afternoon out ladies! I loved it!
OOOoooooo gotta go!! Isaac's got my phone!
