What do you do on a Saturday morning when you get up at 6:00AM to go to the bathroom and can never fall back asleep? Well you get on the internet, learn how to make a tutu for your little girl, go to Hobby Lobby and get your supplies, and make two darling tutus!
I have a lady in my ward who is taking Jordyn's newborn pictures for free. So we have been gathering ideas of what we want. I knew that I wanted to get some of her in a cute little tutu; so I started looking to buy one on the internet. I was absolutely blown away when I saw that people were charging $30-45. I thought I would have to just settle for not having any pictures with a tutu. Boy was I wrong! I am going to let you all in on a little secret... I made these tutus for $3.00!!!
And right here I need a short minute to vent! The lady who was cutting my stuff at Hobby Lobby was driving me crazy. Here is our conversation...
Her: "What are you going to make with this?"
Me: "Tutus for my little girl"
Her: "Oh how old is she?"
Me: "She will be here in two weeks."
Her: "She doesn't live with you?"
Me: "No I am pregnant (if you can't see my ginormous stomach) and I am due in two weeks."
Her: "You are going to put a tutu on an infant?"
Me: (Getting a little annoyed) "Yep!"
Her: "What is her name?"
Me: "Jordyn"
Her: "Silly me I thought you said you were having a girl!"
Me: "I am."
Her: "Since when is Jordyn a girls name? I mean I guess if you say it is then it is right!"
Me: (REALLY ANNOYED) "Yep!"
Oh my, maybe I am just easily irratated but this bugged me so bad.
I really don't think Jordyn is that uncommon for a little girl. I guess I was wrong!

SUPER CUTE!! I can't wait to see her in them. and don't feel bad about that lady and her lame comments. I have just decided some people are just lame. People are gonna say that "your son is so handsome" no matter how much pink she is wearing or if she has a giant bow on her head. people still think mckinlay is a boy and they think her name is a boy's name or that it is a strange name. oh well!
darling Gen! Can't wait to see her in them!
There was a lady at Jades pedatricians office that would always say "he" when asking information about her....people are funny that way, don't let it bug ya!
Super Cute TuTu's!!!! What an annoying lady!!!
Those are absolutely adorable tutu's!! Great job! I love the conversation with that lady---what a moron!
those are way cute tutus if you dont mind me asking what website did you find them at( on how to make them)?
good luck with everything coming up too....
Hi Gen! I fianlly got to see Jordyn's tutus. they are so cute! some of my friends here at work made mother-daughter matching tutus! go ahead make one for yourself. better yet - make one for Cory! (the thought of him in a tutu is a little scary, but I know he could do a cute dance. LOL :)
Hi gen! it's me again. did i already give you this tutu website? if not - go to www.yayapapayatutus.blogspot.com
I love to conversation with that lady! I'm sure I would've been way more irritated than you! Good job on the Tutus! You're so good at that kind of stuff!
Those are darling! I'm impressed with your craft talents. At least you are being productive, I always just sat there and wathced Nik @ Nite, I guess I did make some quilts and other stuff.
Yes, she sounds a little annoying to me too. Just wait until you have her decked out in pink from head to toe with bows,bracelets and even earrings and someone (usually an old man)asks "Is it a boy or girls?" Duhhh!!!
Gracie was excited to hear your message and that baby Jordyn is almost hear. She was thrilled to hear that you might come visit the kids at school. Good luck!
