I've never seen so many packages in one day!

Today was a busy day at the Post Office!
I finally finished the tidal wave of orders that came in for Thanksgiving/Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend! I sent out a total of 15 packages today, and the wagon we took to the PO was overflowing! I wish I'd have had my camera, I'd have taken a picture of that - kids piled ontop of boxes and packages :)

Here's the packages before they went out: (I still have one more for Terri here that goes out tomorrow)


and then I got 9 packages in the mail today - I missed the PO Friday as well as Saturday, so there were a few waiting for me :) I have more coming too - I was lucky enough to be able to trade my soaps, detergent, etc. for items from other WAHMs for my family's Christmas gifts. (Hooray!) and I'll post pics and links as those start coming in. I have a few things that I'm very excited about!

Here's today's fluff, unopened:


and opened (contents list coming next):

The five diapers on the bottom, along with the white/pink shirt and three flowered hair clips are from Sabrina - traded her for some longies and fleece footies that Canon wouldn't wear (cry). All for the studio, except maybe the clippies :D
The thing on the right is a flattened wine bottle (yes, real!) that is now a really unique spoon rest (like when you're cooking and have the dirty stirring spoon). Two DVDs, new in package - for the kids for Christmas. Elmo for him and Happy Feet for her.
The pink diaper and tiny striped diaper are for the studio (I may let Canon wear pink - that's a Jellybean Muttaqin Baby 3SR there!), also traded for them. The white hat, rainbow hat, and rainbow scarf I got in a trade for some rump solution - rainbow is Canon's if it'll fit, otherwise it's for the studio. (Okay I really need some babies in the studio - if you have a LITTLE baby or will have one soon, please email me!) The thing with cars on it is a flannel sleep sack for Canon so he stays warm in bed this winter. And finally, my favorite part of the fluff for today - the brown hat in the middle with teddy bear ears - and a tail!!
Here's an action shot of that - it's just to die for!
(he was mad because McCayla kept trying to steal his hat)

and last but not least - I finally finished and shipped the large letter order today! Hooray! (that was the big box in the outgoing fluff picture)
Here's the finals on them:
Here's the inspiration for that one:




and the inspiration for that one too:





Okay I think there's way more than enough photos in today's post - more tomorrow! :D

What a fine collection, incoming and outgoing! You should do a holiday gift basket that beats the heck out of anything Hallmark or 1800-flowers ever thought about producing. ;)

You are amazing!
