OhFancyBaby

OhFancyBaby  was born when a stay at home mom became very passionate about cloth diapers, due to the fact that her newborn was allergic to regular diapers. As simple as cloth diapering can be, she got caught up in all the questions and doubts about cloth diapering that she decided to make it simple for all the mommies and daddies that want to save money and be more gentle to their babies. With that, Fancy Pants was born; the all in one pocket cloth diaper with a micro-suede inner lining, and an outer super soft and cozy fancy minky or the fancy original outside. They come with 2 inserts either the double fluffed microfiber insert or the all natural fluffed bamboo. With Fancy Pants cloth diapers she decided she needed wet bags and other accessories. That is when Fancy Mama was born. Fancy Mama products are all made by stay at home moms who have an amazing God given and blessed gift to sew and be creative. Fancy Mama Products include; wet bags, reusable wipes, toy blankets, nursing covers and more to come. The final Fancy product that was created are Fancy Flowers, these are made by a stay at home mom, she has an amazing husband who  supports her Fancy Adventures and she also has 2 girls whom are 7 months and 4 years old, Felicity and Faith who are her main reason for creating OhFancyBaby. Hi, I’m Laura Weiting, owner and creator of OhFancyBaby. Thank you so much for loving us we are so blessed and thankful for all your support.

Coming Soon...

We just got back from our yearly Summer Vacation up at the lake. Nothing like tenting it for a week with two kiddos and thankfully one dog. Our neighbors were kind enough to watch the corgi's and the kitty for us. We had a blast though, the weather was some what perfect and the bugs were at a minimum and we have some great and well behaved kiddos... so piece of cake right ? It was a nice getaway but now we are back to the daily grind ...

I have some new things up my sleeve that I'm starting to get really excited about, I'm hoping that my passion for this grows only stronger and that I succeed as much, if not more that what I'm imagining. A new business can take up to a year to get going so please pray for patience and endurance as I embark in my awesome new adventure.


Coming Soon... Cloth Diapers, Re-usable Wipes, Flower Clips, Nursing Covers, Crinkle Blankets and MORE
Please send me an email if you are the bit interested in what will be coming in this new business as I will be having a Launch Party in the next few weeks that I would love to have EVERYONE at.

I'm praying for strength as I launch all this at once and I praise the Lord for giving me this opportunity thorough my Tia who was welcomed home about a month ago. Although we all miss her dearly, we know that she is home now and happier and healthier than ever.

Back in the Blog

So I feel like I haven't blogged in months, probably because it has been over a month... I think.

I have had a lot of family stuff going on causing me to be out of town and not myself lately, but as I'm starting to get ready for a certain someones 4th Birthday I though I should update my blog and the rest of my life.

You heard it right my not so little princess is turning 4 !!!

I'm having a really hard time excepting the fact that my little girl is getting to be so BIG. I can only imagine how I'm going to be when she goes to school. However, I'm having an even harder time with the other princess who started crawling, sitting up and blowing raspberries (thanks to grandpa) all in the last week or so. 
 

What characters these two are together, Faith is thrilled that Felicity is starting to interact and play now, it's AWESOME that these two are so in love with each other. But don't you dare take a toy from Felicity, she is a screamer lol and holds her own that is for sure.

In other news, I'm still trying to figure out my nitch, I'm continuing making flowers and headbands but it hasn't boomed like I had hoped, so my next possible adventure may be getting into the cloth diaper world and selling those, however it's a lot upfront and I'm not sure how it will turn out in the end. So prayers please as I try to figure out God's Plan for me.

I promise to try and get back into blogging sorry it's been so dark around here lately :)

Mmm... Chocolate

I never thought I would ever have 5 girls, however over the weekend I got a brief preview of what life would be if I was a mommy to 5 girls... The oldest was our neighbor Isabel (9) and the youngest was Felicity (4 months) in between that I had Faith (3), Lauren (4) and Holly (2)... after watching the movie of the moment "Tangled" I decided to skip the painting of the nails and jumped right into the games. Hide in Go Seek is not so fun in a small house with restricted rooms (the girls ended up on the couch covering their eyes) I found it briefly entertaining ha ha (I love it when kids think you can't see them). Well that failed, so I busted out the board games ... an all time favorite !! TWISTER

 

We had a successful night overall and I had a blast with all the girls (No they did not ALL spend the night ;)... just in case you were wondering.)

I don't really have an amazing story about this next picture, other than how awesome it is too see in person... Faith yells "Hey it's MATER from cars!!" Sorry the picture isn't that great but I was trying to be some what discret... 

Growing up I couldn't stand chocolate... I know it's crazy but you can ask anyone, I wouldn't eat brownies or chocolate cake or even s'mores during camping. However, while pregnant with Felicity I CRAVED chocolate. I don't know what it was with this girl, but she demanded chocolate and LOVED it. I still couldn't stand the taste so I would literally gag it down to make her happy. (The things a mother does for her child) Well, I'm still eating it now that she is almost 5 months and now and then I still crave it. Although, I don't have to gag it down anymore... I think I have actually acquired a taste for it. So, when we went out for ice cream the other day I ended up getting a hot fudge cookie dough chocolate chip brownie sundae... and I didn't think to take a picture until I was a few bites in already .... and I just realized the picture doesn't do it justice... so don't judge ;)

Felicity is becoming such a big girl, from eating cereal and bananas, to trying to get up on her hands and knees to crawl and even taking naps in her big girl crib every so often. This girl is always surprising us. The other night we were at some friends house for dinner and I had Felicity on my lap while we were eating. Felicity has begun to stare intently while you eat and lick her lips, and apparently she had had enough because she grabbed at my plate and managed to grab a baby tomato and almost reached her mouth... Unfortunately I don't have a picture but you could imagine it was pretty comical.

Faith finished up her Awanas Program last night... She will continue as a Cubby in the Fall but got an award for finishing her first Cubbies Book (Memorized almost 30 verses) GO Faith !!

Lastly... I'm entering the world of CLOTH DIAPERS... To Be Continued...

Here is a sneak peek ;)

Crab is Growing Up

Imagination is an amazing thing. Faith plays pirates, cowboys, and princess all the time and sometimes all together too. Who am I to judge her though? I did the same thing when I was her age and beyond, I guess that is where she go it. For a few months now she has had a friend named "crab". This "crab" goes on vacation with us and pops up at dinner and at bed time and is really where ever Faith wants him to be.

Recently though, "crab" has gotten married, needed band aids and has needed to go to the doctor too. The other day she even whispered to me, "Mommy I have a secret for you, guess what "crab" is growing up."

I was desperate to keep her little hands busy on a rainy day so I handed  her a small box and some paint. As she started painting she looked at me and stated. "Crab is going to be so happy, this is his new house."

So here it is... Welcome to Crab's House

Don't be alarmed by the "boo boo" under her nose... she has been trying to grow into her size 11 feet and they got the best of her at the park the other day when she tripped on the pavement and her nose met the ground :( She is healing though.... crab is too.

Happy Mommy is a Happy Family

I made my bed for the first time in I think a month, it gave me the motivation I needed to fold the laundry and put it away and then vacuum. Just when I think I'm all caught up, I get to start all over again. I feel like it's a never ending circle that doesn't have any turn offs. I realized I was making it that way and it didn't necessarily have to be like that. So today I decided to turn off that never ending circle track and to start a new path.

I made my first official "Crock Pot" meal, it was SO easy and came out delicious... I got it from my good friend Kirstin and I tweaked it a bit to make it my own... kind of. So I hope you enjoy this super easy and yummy dinner recipe.

Crock Pot Chicken Taco Soup (Total Time 7 hours)

1 Chopped White or Yellow Onion

1 (16oz) can Chili Beans w/ mild sauce

1 (15oz) can Black Beans (drained)

1 (15oz) can Whole Kernel Sweet Corn (drained)

1 (8oz) can Tomato Sauce

1 (15 oz) can Chicken Broth

1 (16oz) can Diced Tomatoes w/ green chili’s (un-drained)

1 package of Taco Seasoning

1 cup of Water

3 Whole Skinless, Boneless Chicken Breasts

Shredded Cheese

Sour Cream

Flour Tortillas 

Step 1 :  Turn Crock Pot on low setting

Step2:  Pour all cans and water in Crock Pot, put onion and taco seasoning in and stir.

Step3: Place Chicken on top and put lid on. Leave it for 5 hours

Step 4: Take Chicken out and shred with two forks and put back in Crock Pot for 2 hours

To Serve: Pour in bowl and top with shredded cheese, sour cream and fresh warm flour tortilla pieces

** Avocado makes a good side as well :)

I have decided to start working out and eating a little better as well, I haven't physically started yet, however I have made the mental commitment and that is the first step right? At least I hope that is how it will work out. I finished eating all the cookies so they are a temptation anymore ha ha... and now I'm ready.

I have been really focusing on ME lately, because I have determined that running the same race everyday isn't doing my family or myself any good. If I'm in a bad mood, so are my girls and so is my husband. So I need to take care of me. That is the best advice I can give any mom... A Happy Mom = A Happy Family

Faith Started Swim Lessons and Loves her New Goggles

Miss Felicity has found her toes, and her toes have found her mouth ... Toe Sucker
