For Kate...

I have some yellow and orange Kool-Aid yarn leftover from a soaker, and I was thinking that it would be stinkin' cute to have a sunshiney skirt to put over the soaker.  I'd have to adjust the waistband so it's the same size as the soakers with the holes for the drawstring in the same place, and then I could pull the drawstring through ( Read more... )

Let others know a little more about yourself, repost this with your name followed by "ology".

I wouldn't say Amy is a picky eater, because if she's hungry she will eat whatever is in front of her, but it's more like she's peckish - she eats just enough to where she's not that hungry and then she's ready to move on to something else.  Kate, on the other hand, will shovel food in her mouth until she's ready to pop.  This morning at breakfast ( Read more... )

I stayed up too late last night watching a documentary on two guys who grew an acre of corn.  I know that sounds horribly dull, but it turned out to be really interesting...and gross.  They made high fructose corn syrup in their kitchen, and it was more like a chemistry experiment than cooking.  And they talked about how cows weren't made to eat ( Read more... )

We had our ultrasound yesterday, and it looks like a boy, healthy and kicking. David got his heir :), Amy is very excited about having a little brother, and now I get to rid the girls room of all the baby girl clothes under 12 months and all the girlie baby stuff.  This will give me SO much room it will be insane.  With my sister's baby on the way ( Read more... )

Kate caught on to the signing, starting with "more."  Given how much that girl loves to eat, it's no surprise that was the first one she found useful.  She's using "all done" (waving her hand in the air and pushing her high chair away from the table) and we showed her "milk" and "Cheerio" but they kind of look alike, so we're trying to figure out ( Read more... )

I posted this to knittinghelp.com and I also want to see if any knitters here have thoughts...

This is the first project where I've ever tried to use row markers or a row counter, (and my third project ever) and there's very obvious lines in the knitting where I went around the markers. Once I noticed this was happening, I tried to just pull tighter ( Read more... )

At Dawn's recommendation, I just put a bunch of Elizabeth Zimmerman knitting books on hold at the library.   Now I have something fun to watch watch for in the mail. :)

Ultrasound is coming up... I have my 20 week ultrasound on Monday, which means that we'll see if we can find out if it's a boy or girl.  I say "see if" because I know that sometimes those babies get a sudden burst of modesty and refuse to open their legs for the camera (these are the same kids who will run naked around the lawn when ( Read more... )
