    I’m a pediatric occupational therapist and that super man pose is actually a reflex that stays with newborns until 5-7 months old and is called the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex (ATNR). When a baby turns their head to one side, the arm and leg on that side will extend and the other arm will flex and make that very cute super hero pose! It will eventually help with his postural control and stability and his overall fine and gross motor skills 😊

      I agree, I was a childcare provider and used to see this during nap time 😴 (A 9 month old and 2 year old. I thought it was cute ☺️ and hilarious 😂 at the same time. 😂🤣

    Large kitchen tables remind me so much of growing up in Italy and Germany where the table was the centre of everything. I did my homework there, my grandmother did her ironing and baking on it, we had meals and gatherings there. A kitchen island is just not the same. When I got my first flat I made sure the kitchen was big enough for a large old table😍 I guess all I wanted to say is that I love your table 😂

    The little pants need to go under the onesie to solve the belt problem and I think all the super heroes wear tights :)

      I was thinking that turn your onesie, one side out and so your cape onto the collar and then the fabric that you have from the pocket that you removed could you not cut it in a strip and sew it over top of maybe that wouldn’t irritate his skin as much. But that is gonna look adorable.

    I have modified a lot of recipes to reduce sweetness. I took my childhood chocolate chip cookie recipe and subbed coconut sugar and reduced by 1/3 and switched to dark chocolate and we love them. Also you can look for recipes from European bakers as traditionally American desserts are CONSIDERABLY sweeter then other countries

    Love creating costumes. Growing up my mom always made our costumes. For my daughter we used a combination of thrifted clothing, fabric and my moms sewing. My favourite was a witch costume made from a 1960s crushed velvet mini dress. It was the perfect full length for a 7 year old.

    if you're new to sewing and want to try the gathering technique that macenna demonstrated, lowering the tension dial will help make the gathering part easier. just remember to put the tension back up to what it was before you put everything away or else you'll forget when you start your next project.

  • @akelly4207
    @akelly4207 День тому +5

    A second stitch line at the edge inside the collar of the onesie would have made the gather lie flat , keeping the cape out of the way so you don’t sew it. A zigzag stitch if you can’t sew close enough

  • @monical4632
    @monical4632 День тому +7

    Macenna, that was the cutest little costume! I know Super Cade will save the day and steal hearts of everyone he meets. For your sewing container you can use a tackle box. It has compartments that are adjustable, and you can lock it up so tiny fingers won't get pricked on pins if it's out being used. I like my tackle box and it keeps everything together yet separated.

    I cringed when you used the same scissors for cutting fabric and paper. When I learned to sew (in the60s) we were told NEVER to do that or we would dull our sewing scissors. To this day, I follow this same rule.

      Or else just slide the parchment paper off the cookie sheet onto the counter. The cookies will firm up! Oh, use a food servers that look like mini ice cream scoops to scoop cookies or candy balls. They have all different sizes: 1Tablespoon size, 2T, 3T and others sizes. They are great for measuring out cookie dough and all sorts of foods.

    😊 There is something, for some time now, that I noticed. Cade is wearing less clothing compared to what you and Romeo are wearing. Rule of thumb is.... if you're dressed comfortably for warm or cooler days baby should be as well. Just saying. Please don't take offense. You're wonderful parents and Cade is one lucky boy. Love you and all you do. I never miss an episode. Happy Halloween ❤

      Babys are people and people have different temperature preferences. Our son never slept in a sleep sack, always rather wanted to be cold at night than warm, was sweating and turning red much quicker than we did.

    • @tracygarrett3952
      @tracygarrett3952 9 годин тому +1

      I think Cade is probably dressed appropriately for the weather. I say this because MaCenna tends to wear heavy clothes in warm temperatures, and I think Romeo wears a heavier top and shorts.😂

    When making gathers like that, put 2 rows of long stitches’ maybe even 3 rows of stitches to make gathers. Makes the gathers a lot more easier, even , and pretty. Been sewing since I was 5 and I’m 73 years old now. I also had a girl. I made almost all her clothes, including prom dresses. I loved making Halloween costumes. Very cute costume. He’s going to look darling.

    You might try sewing the cape with the right side towards the neck of the onesie so that when you turn it over the edge will be under the cape and may help it stand out a bit and also be softer at the neckline. Just reverse it from the way you have it now and the edge will be under the cape. Also I always take cookies out of the oven before they get brown around the edges. If you wait until then they will be overcooked and hard. It’s great to see you all enjoying the Halloween 👻 season 🎃. All the first times are so fun!

    Since you've become so "pioneer woman" with baking you might consider making your own pure vanilla extract. It only needs the cheapest, highest proof vodka you can find and Madagascar vanilla beans (which can find online). It takes 3 months to "brew" and the older it gets the better it is. I made it last October for Christmas gifts and my family and friends LOVED it - they thought I was either the smartest person on earth of Martha Stewart. I use it all the time. It's been a year now since I made it and it's so good that I could drink it.
