11:13am

Forget Friday the 13th... try 11:13 am.

This was the second time I was on Studio 5 and it could quite possibly be the scariest 7 minutes and 33 seconds ever! :)

But really... the whole experience was a blast & Brooke Walker is SO great to work with!
This segment focused on 'how to dress up a basic tee with fabric.' I loved designing the different shirts with some of my favorite fabric from Sandi Henderson & Amy Butler. Do you love the little mannequin that GAP let me borrow? It was cute because it was just about Avery's size. :)

I thought it would be fun to giveaway one of the baby onesies I made for the show...
Leave a comment with your favorite time of day (hour:min) and why. :)

5:45pm is my favorite weekday time--it's when my husband walks through the door and rescues me from the dinnertime chaos!

Deborah said...

3:00 ....that's when the mailman comes at my house and I love getting the mail out of the mailbox...you never know what you'll get each day :)

J Lu said...

4:20- just makes me think of college days

Lain said...

2:40 pm. It's when I wrap down my "work" and start my "real" job and pick up the kids from school.

Ashley said...

Congrats for being on the show! Around 7:00pm, when both my husband and me get home and we can hang out and relax.

Katie said...

12:34 - Its lunchtime and its fun! I would love the onesie for my friend, who just had her first baby. I can't wait to finally meet her Friday :)

the ritchie's said...

2:35pm...when I get off work and get to go pick up my baby girl from daycare.My favorite time of day is watching her smile when I come to the door to get her.

Rosemary said...

3:45 am. Penelope wakes up on the dot and needs a bottle, and the other 2 kids and husband are still asleep and I get the only me time in my day.

Grace said...

I love eight o'clock in the morning. I wake up and open the blinds to let the sunshine in. I go see my munchkin waiting for me standing up in his crib. We both wake up quiet and slow. We share some kisses, make beds and have a nice quiet breakfast watching the birds out our kitchen window. We have a bird feeder out there and it's fun to share our breakfast time with the little finches.

melanie said...

11:22 - my birthday (Nov. 22)! :)

Cindy B. said...

3:55 pm - - the time the bus comes down the street and my kids are home safe and sound!

erica said...

i'd have to say 11:00. i always hope that by that me and my babe are a little decent for whatever the day will bring.
love the onsies!

Laci J said...

Thursday @ 2:25 AM When my husband gets home and climbs into bed and ever so quietly wakes me up to remind me how much he loves me. Then I wake up at 5AM to teach Seminary.

rsalo said...

7:20 am is when my son wakes up and there is nothing like hearing him call for me! the first thing he does is throw his pacifier to teh floor and then everything else gets thrown out of his crib. He smells so so so good each and every morning. That sweet baby smell! love it

Rachel said...

8: 15pm. This means my son is in bed and probably asleep so I can finally sit down and have some quality "me" time while also giving my body (namely the huge belly with a constantly active baby girl in it) some rest.

Joanne said...

My favourite time of the day is around lunch time now, its in betweeen the times i get morning sickness the worst :)

Anonymous said...

12:34 because it's lucky! Plus it's lunchtime, which means I got the house clean in the morning and the afternoon is open for playing and projects. :)

Amanda Fuentes said...

12:30 - lunchtime!

Mrs. Fletcher said...

I like 7:23 AM on weekends. I was born at 7:23 AM. Usually weekdays I am getting ready to load up and pull out of my driveway for daycare/school/work. That's okay I guess. I also LOVE 3:30 PM - when I get off work!

Natalie said...

my favorite time - morning, when my 11 month daughter wakes up and starts to kiss my nose to wake mammy))) in those moments I am most happy and forget about all the difficulties of Education)

Ginajam said...

My favorite time of day can vary, but it's usually right around 10 am...just after I've gone to the gym and am feeling totally revived! That's when I feel like I can accomplish everything on my to-do list!!

P.S. Would you consider doing a tutorial on your blog for the cute shirts, etc. that you made for the t.v. segment??? Pretty please?! Thanks!!

Heather said...

3:30 PM.....the time I am done with work and get to punch out and go home to my sweetie!!

Gioconda said...

2:45 pm. I am usually in the carpool line at school waiting to pick up my boys. My 3 year old is taking a nap in her car seat. I bring a book or CK magazine. Or I just sit in the car and look out the window. My kids go to a school with lots of green; trees, grass and mountains so the view is amazing. I don't have to answer the phone, put laundry away or wash dishes. It can sometimes be the only time during the day that I don't have to do anything.

tchrtiff said...

Friday, 10:02 AM
I love my kids dearly but on Fridays at 10:02 AM daughter is in 1st grade and son is at preschool. I'm in a quiet house drinking a Starbucks Frappaccino. I love and need my quiet time so this is my favorite time.

Jen D. said...

Well it is a toss up between 7 something am and 7 something pm. Seven in the morning because my two kids wake up happy, giggling and playing sometime around then. Seven something at night when my two kiddos go to bed. I love them and no matter how great the day was I am ready for some me time by then. Cute onsie, I am due this summer with our third in a little over three years.:)

Reina said...

2:13am My baby wakes up to nurse and it is just me and him because the other 2 are sleeping. Plus I always get a sweet smile from the baby as to say thanks and he loves me.

Ashley said...

3pm, naptime=me time.

Becky said...

8:01 p.m. b/c 5 kids are tucked in their bed, we've made it through another day and my husband and I can sit and savor the quiet for a little while.

felicia said...

Favorite Time: 7:30p late night snuggles with my boys and my hubby before bedtime:)

Rena said...

8:00 p.m.
bedtime for kiddos and wind down time for mom and dad.

DeAnne said...

My favorite time of the day is just as the sun is setting. It brings such peace to me and I have to just stop and take in the beautiful picture that God has just painted for us. I have even gone as far to let me husband know that when I pass away I would love for my funeral to be during the sunset.

Smiles,
DeAnne

candy said...

430pm I get off work and on my way home to my babies.

Kari B said...

Hi Liz-
Sounds like you did a great job! 11:11 am or pm, I don't know how it started but we would kiss/say our I love yous at 11:11 ever since we were dating (been together since 1995)
Kari

amy miller said...

my favorite actual time of the day is 3:22 either am or pm because that is my birthday. I also like finding patterns in numbers, so we celebrate the clock when it says 12:34 or 4:56 or things like that! so fun! wish I had this channel, I need to make some baby gifts and want to know how you do this!

LyonsDenLife said...

10:36pm - this was the time that I was born - and also the time my son was born!

Mimmers49 said...

I love looking at the clock when it is 11:11. Not too sure why?? Maybe because it is a palindrome, maybe when it is 11:11pm and my alarm is set the display looks like this :11:11 ...lol!!

Lee Ann said...

Right now - 8:32 am - that is when my newest niece, Abigail was born last Thursday. What Joy!!

Shelbie said...

8:00 pm!! Everyone is in bed so I can play! :)

Deb-Close to my Heart Consultant said...

7.45pm supper over and nothing on tv to distract me. i can sit and play with my stamps and paper.

Candace said...

3:30 is my favorite of course! It's the time I end a long day of work and head home. I really love it on warm sunny days when I open the sun roof, put on my shades and turn up the tunes!!! :)

Anonymous said...

3:26. I teach and the final bell rings at 3:25. At 3:26 there is quiet and relief that it's time to head home for the day!

susieummel said...

7:32pm....that was the time my first baby girt was born. The day my world changed 22 years ago. Now...next month...she will be graduating a year and a half early with 2 degrees. We sure did something right! Congrats Jessica! We are SO proud of you!

I get home from working 12 hours saving lives!

~Ashley
Cute onesie! I heart elephants

amanda said...

It would have tobe 7:30. It is bedtime and I get to start scrapbooking ;) I love the onesie!

Danielle said...

5:23 today because I have been off work for a while now just waiting for my little angel to wake up from her nap, and at 5:23 today I heard a little "mom mom mom" and was greeted with a heart-melting smile (which can make the worst day ever better in a split second).

Audrey said...

7:05pm. The kiddos go down at 7:00 and then it is time for me to *breathe*. I love that we have a schedule and everyone knows what to expect and when to expect it. I know I have some personal time coming to me that I look forward to no matter what kind of day it's been.

Totally cute onsie, and since I've got a little girl scheduled to arrive by c-section in just 33 days I figured why not try to win it for her? Love it.

kelly in NB said...

midnight.....the house is quiet...the dog sleeping beside me....babies and hubby asleep....and i'm usually just finishing scrappin!!

Joy said...

8:00 pm - I am expecting my 3rd and right now I long for that magic hour when I can lay down and rest my growing body and not have to worry what the other two crazies are up to.

Is there a tutorial for those of us who didn't catch the show?

The Boys Mommy said...

Okay it's not a specific time, but it's whenever I change into my sweatpants at the end of the day!

Katie said...

6:00 (ish) p.m. because that's dinner time in our house!!!! I love cooking, eating, and spending time with family.

s a n s k u :) said...

My favorite time of the day varies depending on a day but right now my favorite coming date is November 20th. Twilight New Moon starts then. :D

Congrats on your tv appearance.

What a cute elephant on the onesie!

Connie B said...

My favorite time of day is 9:01 pm...that is when my three kiddos should be in bed and the house is quiet!

The Cox Family said...

My fave time of day is 5:10pm -- that's when I pick up my two boys from daycare. I love hearing my 3 year old yell "mommy!" and snuggling with both boys as we head for the car and home for the evening.

The onesie is awesome! I have a dear friend and coworker whose new little baby boy would look so sweet in it! Thanks for the chance! Love your blog!

Heather Marie said...

Wow! Today...I would say about 8:30in the morning when the sun shines through the window and you can feel the warmth of it on your skin!

Anonymous said...

5am Sunday. My Mum wakes me up to get dressed for the local markets, I sneak around to get ready and then lift my snoozing baby boy into my arms to take to the car. We get our fresh produce then sit in the beautiful morning air having a coffee. Baby boy gets his breastfeed and when we get home my other two little crazies come running out for morning hugs. That is a nice morning.

AnnaMarie said...

3 p.m. This is when my not-snuggly-anymore 18-month old wakes up from her nap. By then I've accomplished something during her nap, and we snuggle on the couch for a few minutes and watch Ellen!

Kali said...

7:45 when my husband wakes me up to say good bye. (and then I roll over and go right back to sleep...)

Caroline said...

7:00 am kids are waking up, we are fresh. Everyone is usually happy and ready for the day. AND 9:00 pm. Kids are in bed, and I have time to just relax to be me.

You were awesome on Studio 5 by the way. I caught the segment and even tried a little something! Thanks. The elephant has to be my favorite.

Mommy Hollis said...

When I pick my son up from daycare. I think of him ALL day long and can't wait to see his face when I walk through the door. He's usually waiting for me and his face lights up when I get him. My heart just melts everytime...it never gets old!

Farm Girl in MD said...

3:45 p.m. Bell rings and students head to the bus.

HB Crafty Lady said...

My fave time of the day would probably be 11 pm weeknights when "Chelsea Lately" is on. I get comic relief and I get my second wind to scrap and create until the wee hours! Thanks for your blog; you inspire me everyday! And I love the little onesie with an elephant!

Lisa said...

7:27 am. At work and no one is else is there. I have my coffee, the lights are dim and it is quiet. I get a lot done in that half an hour or so before anyone else is there! :)

doris said...

friday at 6:00pm hubbie home from work...let the weekend begin..great onsies!

Jennifer Johnson said...

7:10 am - getting my baby boy out of bed, he is still sleepy and just cuddles into me, rests his head on my shoulder and hums. heaven.

Lisa said...

wait! my favorite time is right now! my hubby is doing the dishes!! ;)

Emily H. said...

I actually saw the segment! I love the onesies and was inspired to make a few for my little one arriving in a few months...but I'd take the one from the show too!

My favorite time of day is 9:00 p.m. (particularly Monday night) because that means I'm off of work for a week! (That would be in 8 minutes...)

Jenny B. said...

9pm or so. Everyone is asleep and I am on the couch with my knitting and dvr.

Karissa and Mik said...

i love the time between day and night right as the sun is setting, my favorite part is right after the sun has set but the sky still glows a bit

Dana said...

Such a cute onesie! My favorite time of the day would have to be about 6:50 a.m. That's when my two little ones usually come running into my room and want to cuddle up with me under the covers :) It doesn't get better than that!

AngMomof3 said...

11:11 PM. We always saw this time show up on our drive home after performing in summer musicals... the greatest memories.

Lea said...

2.30am or there abouts is when my new bubba wakes up for a breastfeed. i LOVE this time. it is quiet and still-no big brother and sister trying to kill her with love...it's just her and me, our time and i love it!

Carla said...

10:42pm...time for my husband and I to snuggle in bed for some quiet, alone time (most nights, anyways). With three little ones around, this time is very, very precious.

natalienicole said...

8:30pm...babies are fed, bathed, and ready for snuggles with mom and dad.

Jenn Becker said...

Right around 6:55am, my 6 week old daughter wakes up with huge eyes and a dimply smile [just for me:)]...it makes for a great morning

amanda p. said...

hmmm.. I think 11:59 the last minute of the day, when my husband and I finally dive into bed hoping for as much beauty rest as possible! There are never enough hours in the day!

traceyjb said...

5:23pm... when my husband gets home from work. The kids are so excited to see Daddy - I love to see their faces light up - love to give my Bryan a big smooch - and love that the family is all "back together" after our daily activites :)

Jen said...

Hey Liz! Lets see...my favorite time of day is 4:45 pm. That's when Bob gets home from work and that about the time I feel like I'm going to have a complete melt down!! :) He is such a good dad and the girls LOVE when he gets home!

♥ JB said...

11:17
It seems as every time either me or my husband look at the time it's 11:17
At first we would get freaked out because that is his birthday but being married for almost 4 yrs and having to be apart for half of it (he's in the military) when this happens now I just smile and think about how he's probably looking at the clock at the same time as me

Emily Jones said...

My favorite part of the day? About 11:30pm, when I sneak into all three kids rooms and check on them one more time.
Their little arms and legs all flung about their beds, and I reposition and re-cover each one...kisses on the forehead, and then I'm off to bed.
I can't sleep if I don't do this little routine. :-)

Raimi said...

12:00 am becasue that is when I usually fall into bed after a long day of fun (cleaning, carpooling, homework, running the boys to & from, etc...)
The baby shirt is darling.

Amber and Nala said...

Well, I don't know about a favorite but your time 11:13 made me think of my Mom....her birthday was November 13th. :) Cute tee and I know a very sweet newborn baby that would look adorable in it. :)

laurensmommy said...

9:30am when my little girlie-girl is starting her morning snooze and I am catching up on bloggy world! :)

5:00 when my hubby gets home from work. I love seeing him again and watching him play with our (almost) 2 year old.

Michelle Whitlow said...

Jessica said...

7:30 pm. Baby is asleep and I'm cuddling on the couch with my honey.

Anonymous said...

I would have to say 4:45pm...putting in that last little push at work...and then going home to your husband and family.

Kate said...

definitely about 10:53pm... M is in bed, I'm not too dead tired yet, and my sewing machine calls my name.

Shannon F said...

10pm - it's finally time to relax after a full day of craziness!

Jenn said...

7:30pm - right before my little Kate goes to sleep, she likes to snuggle with mommy and rock for a few minutes... so peaceful!

Sherry Williams said...

i'd have to say its 3:33pm each day. my daughter who is insane with the details of everything...has been coming in the door each day after school at this time. she says it is her favorite time of all...3:33. silly. So when i think of fave times i always think of mine being hers, cause i just love how special she thinks it is. :)
(and id also say 1pm sharp--cause ive been watching the soap "days of our lives" for like 15 years and its my happy hour!!)

meganklauer said...

9:30 because on a "normal" night this is when my hubby and I head to bed and snuggle while watching tv.

Melanie said...

6:30-7:ish p.m.
Daddy comes home and I get to see the wonderful smiles on my two girls' face as they see their daddy. It's absolutely wonderful to see the adoring looks on their faces.

Jason, Dawn, Lane, and Kate said...

I love any time of the day i get to snuggle with my kids, but one of my favorite is when my kids are sleeping and i get to snuggle with my husband.

Melissa said...

11:48 - Just gave birth to my newest little angel last Tuesday at 11:48!

sierrasmommy said...

5:30 am, its early and i'm feeding my daughter. Just the two us together.

Wife and Mother. said...

OK, first of all, Elizabeth, you did amazing on Studio 5! I would be terrified to ad-lib on tv, but you did great!! You've come a long way since our days at CTMH.

And I'm in love with your elephant onesie, so I'll tell you my favorite time of day is 3:11 (am or pm). for some reason 311 has always been a strangely lucky number for me, and that goes for the time of daym too. Whenever I look at the clock right at that time the rest of my day has a little extra pep to it.

Ariel said...

11:59 pm I love to see it switch to 12:00 am...ahhh...the start of a new day

Becca said...

10:00 AM
I still don't feel to lazy if I haven't really got after things, it starts to warm up, the sun shines through the windows-Love!

Daisy Niemeyer said...

My favorite time of day WILL BE on May 8th at about 1pm when after about a year and a half of living in South Korea, I will be returning to the States! I am so grateful for how lucky I am to be an American. This experience of being in a foreign country was quite an eye opening experience!!!!

Tami said...

Anytime my husband comes home from work. He travels each week so when he comes home it's a big deal around here. My son is beyond excited yelling "Daddy's home!! Daddy's home! Daddy's home!" Doesn't get much better than that. :-)

sassy said...

you are one talented gal! my fav time of the day is wakingup to my little one calling mum mum from his crib.......I was NEVER a morningperson beforemy baby but now I can't wait to see him each morning. motherhood...love it!

jill said...

Angela said...

8:30 ish When I get my second wind (and usually some scrappy time) after the kidlets head off to dream land!

Anonymous said...

Favorite part of the day is 5:00am - time to spend about 1 1/2 hours sewing before getting our youngest up for school.
My time
Nicky from Canada

toots said...

I LOVE how crazy my kids are when we go to the annual Egg Hunt....Kids Run Wild!!! Crazy Fun!!!

Erin said...

3:00 am... just me and the baby - feeding in the dim nursery. Mommy, son bonding time. ;)

Jessica Shaw said...

11:34 night or day... My husband and I (together almost 7 years now) seem to have a connection to this number. We long distance dated for a year and it seemed that around that time when we'd look, we'd both see it. When his dad passed away, and we moved back home to Kansas from Dallas, TX, the odometer read exactly 1134.00. It's a magical number to us :)

Lau said...

My favorite time of the day is around dinner time (6:30 pm), because me and my husband eat and enjoy talking and food.

kristen said...

my favorite time of the day is around 7pm because that is my unwind time.

shelby said...

oh man! that is so cute! if the contest is still going on, I would love to enter. My favorite time of the day is 8:35am...that is the time my baby girl was born!

lucid99 said...

Right now it has to be in the evening after I get home from a long day at work. After dinner I cozy up to my DH and watch my 9 1/2 month pregnant belly move all over the place. It's nice to have the quiet time just the 2 (almost 3) of us...

Nancy Holley said...

I like 10:23 it's the month and day of my birthday and I always love seeing it on the digital clock -- weird I know -- but it is easier to celebrate my birthday for a minute randomly throughout the day without actually having to turn a year older

Debra said...

My favorite of day is early morning snuggling with my husband before he goes to work.
