Maclain's 2 mo. check up

Maclain went to his 2 mo. check up. He started his immunizations... it was sad! His stats are
Height: 11 lbs. 3 oz.- 41%
Length: 23 in.-54%
He is growing so fast!

Stockings

So since Maclain has joined our family I decided that I needed to make stockings for all of us. I am not a sewer, but my mom is. She helped me pick out the fabric, showed me how to sew and helped me! They turned out sooo cute!!
So we stacked the fabric and cut out these squares then mixed them up to sew them.
These are the final product. They turned out so cute!
