Baby Birth Record

My sister-in-law had a baby a few months ago.  I decided that I would make him a cross stitch birth record.  I went to Michael's and got a kit that I thought would be really cute.  I picked out  Dimensions kit, the toy shelf birth record.  I thought I should start early in September, then by December when the baby was born all I had to do was add the information.  However with making a bunch of Christmas gifts I was unable to finish it in time.  So I didn't finish the work until early in January, which I guess is still pretty good.  When it was done I brought it into Michaels to get framed.  They had 60% off the framing price (the frame, matts, and everything) which was a huge help!  The lady there was a great help and selected matt colours that I never would have thought of.  They were also able to get it done for me just in time for the shower! 
The finished work!
All framed up!
