Keep on Keeping on

The yarn arrived for all the projects I need them for! I do hate how buying on the internet never gives you a true color view. I am binding off the Girasole till the Olympics start. I frogged the one sock I finished in the serendipity pattern. I hated it, and it fit poorly. [...]

The Name Saga

The naming Saga continues. My Grandma suggested I name him James Kurt. Problem with that one, is I have A grandpa James (passed on), a grandpa Jim (still with us TG!), a uncle Jimmy, a uncle James (goes by JC), a brother named James (goes by JD), and I have my middle name picked out [...]

Tada’s

Tada! I finished, and delivered the sweater. It’s cuter than this picture makes it look, cause the cables are hard to see here. It’s even cuter on Jackson.
 
I started on my blanket, Girasole. It’s a lovely soft merino single ply. So soft. Love Malabrigo. Tada!
 
I have gathered my mobile supplies. I [...]

The Hunt Continues

I still don’t have a name. Some new ones we are considering are Cullen, Carson, Griffin, and My Husband’s Favorite Maximilian. Problem with that one is my Best Friend just had a baby a few months ago, and named him Maxwell. 2 max’s is just a little too copy cat for me, so I nixed [...]

Miracles

  
its a BOY!! We just found out a few hours ago. He may not be named for quite some time. Don’t ask.

8 days into potty training Aiden, at 3 years old 2 months and we are on day 3 of 100% dry. In the past 8 days we have had 2 wet [...]

Happy New year

We had a great new years eve. Games with the Snow’s (which I won for once). Then we chilled and relaxed just the two of us (all kids snug in their beds and fast asleep well before midnight)! I don’t do New Years resolutions, I figure if it’s important you don’t need an excuse [...]

A Knitted Christmas

So here it is, the final count 17 holiday Knitted gifts, of which I have pictures for most.
I knit 4 pairs of socks,

2 ornaments (I forgot to photograph Ivan’s!)

1 scarf (not pictured [...]

Christmas Downtown

So every year we go downtown with the kids during the figgy pudding contest. We ride the monorail to the Westlake center with the kids, then walk around a bit looking in the windows. We ride the carousel and peak at Santa. Some years we go see the one at Nordstrom but not this year. [...]
