Flutter Skirts

I have always loved skirts. In grade school there were years I refused to wear pants. I was/am a girly girl. See…
I think my figure looks better in skirts. Smaller waist accented and child bearing hips camouflaged.
Skirts make you feel beautifulSkirts make you feel like dancing
Skirts make you feel feminine
Spring is in full swing and summer is upon us.

Another great post on skirts here from one of my favorite blogs The Domestic Fringe.

Where the hay can I put my diaper bag!?!?
You are in the grocery store.
You put your diaper bag next to baby.
Baby flings the contents of your wallet throughout the store.
You put the diaper bag in the cart, it gets covered with food and fixins’.
You get to the checkout you hold up the line searching for your coupons.
Use a carabiner (rock climbing hook) to clip your bag to the cart!!
I got my carabiner at REI. It has flowers on it 
I keep it attached to the strap of my diaper bag. It clips to anything… stroller, cart & toddler (except for the toddler).
These pix were taken on a recent trip to one of my favorite places, IKEA! 
Memorial Day FUN!!
~May you remember the men and women 
Call friends and family who have served our great country today!
“Memorial Day was first established in 1868 in order to honor the soldiers who had fallen during the Civil War. It was initially only recognized by first NewYork and then the remainder of the northern states, and wasn’t followed by the south until after World War I.”

Going on a Picnic? Take a Lid…
Get settled.
I’m not the best lunch packer (as some of you might remember Cora Jane gnawing on a potato at the pool). This time I packed leftover lasagna and one paper towel.
Cora is wearing the Pink Snowboarder Lid in pink size newborn-1-year-old.
I'm honored you clicked on Eli's Lids...I love visitors! Explore the blog to learn what really makes Eli's Lids so awesome... my little family and my inspiration... Eli! I'm a stay at home mama who starting sewing adorable "Lids" for my son in 2006. Before I knew it, friends and family were requesting Lids for their kids and baby shower gifts. I decided to sew my little heart out and start Eli's Lids! I've worked really hard to create a unique practical style for moms just like me. I hope you like them too. Many Blessings from my family to yours! ~Kara-Noel
Hot Hubby is the resident tech guy at Eli’s Lids. He gets all my ideas onto the computer so I can create. He is also the lifter of heavy things, killer of (small) spiders, and indulges my Anthropologie obsession. Though he has been know to slack off regularly because everybody knows he’s sleeping with the boss… often.
Our first born and the original inspiration for Eli’s Lids. Pirate obsessed. Cautious. Loves peach yogurt and veggies. Tells knock knock jokes like nobody’s business. Tall. Striking blue eyes. Doesn’t let anyone pick on his lil’ sister and brother… except him!
Dances to the beat of her own lil’ drummer. Loves getting her nails painted and playing games on Daddy’s iPhone. Adventurous. Perfect hair. Hates mornings. Can give a mean stink eye. Wants to read princess books all day.
My favorite (yeah I said it). Snuggler. Sweet tempered. Knock-out smile. French kisses everyone. Water baby. The reason I want more kiddos!
