An all around exciting day

Its been an exciting day in my house. Katie went potty by herself, without being asked. And earlier in the day, told me she had to “go potty quick!”  Also, my ever adorable and increasingly mobile son FINALLY took a bottle. I can now leave the house for more than 2 hour blocks of time. [...]

knitterpated

I finished this adorable shirt pattern I found at knitty.com. I knit it up in yarn I bought from the artful ewe when I was in kingston. Its a bamboo, merino, nylon mix.  The ruffle was done in Berrocco cotton twist in cotton candy color. I even blocked it!! (this is a first for me, [...]

crazy days

Family recap . . . Katie is still potty training. Some days are better than others. Many pairs of underwear have hit the can. (cause there are just some things I don’t wash) I really want her to just go by herself, but she isn’t 100% there yet. I still have to remind her to [...]

TV worth watching

Ok so my 3 favorite shows post regular season … 2 of them have already started, and the 3rd starts in 11 days.

 
 
 
So the Starter Wife with Debra Messing is a smash hit with me. Its edgy, witty, funny, and just fabulous. It has the possibilities that sex and the city had. I [...]

wishing for a time long ago.
The smell of the summer storm,
Lingers in the air tonight,
and leaves me a little forlorn,
for a place forever lost.
Weeks spent every year,
The best part of the summer
spent with those I loved so dear,
gone [...]

Alright so my knitting update… My mitts for mary are complete. They are gorgeous and I still have some koigu left (thats right, one skein made a pair of mitts with some to spare…)  They striped nicely. I think next I may start the sweater I will be knitting with Laura. Or I might start [...]

A wild and wacky day

So my middle child, Katie decided today, that she would no longer wear diapers. Thats right you heard me. We had been having a 50% ration in bowel movements prior, so I was willing to give it a shot. I got her some training pants from the stash and began taking her in every [...]
