Baby Week Day Four

Are you ready for some more cuddly goodness? After having Peachy, we learned the importance of a good swaddle. We also learned that I am not very good at using the traditional receiving blanket as a swaddling device. So we invested in a Miracle Blanket. And let me tell you, it was a miracle! I decided with this baby that I would try to make my own swaddling blankets. I searched the internet and saved several tutorials to Pinterest. I ended up deciding to use the original Prudent Baby DIY Swaddle Blanket Pattern. (Note, they also have a revised version here.)
I dipped into my fabric stash and came out with these two cuties.

And while I don't know if Cream will be a swaddle baby and I don't know how well this particular swaddler works, I do know that they are cute!
Can't you just see the little baby head peaking out now?!!

Very cute! With my beginning of summer baby, I ended up using a muslin blanket for swaddling because all the swaddle wraps we had were fleece or heavy material, but with these you could make them any weight you choose!
