There is actual knitting going on around here!  I am kind of bored with the stocking knitting, so I’m procrastinating on that.  I’ll get back to it in time to give it to my cousin at Thanksgiving, but for now, I am in need of some "instant" gratification that doesn’t require much thought when I’m … Continue reading →

No excuses or explanation about why I’ve been gone so long.  Suffice it to say, I have a project that is keeping me very busy! He just looks like trouble, doesn’t he?!  Well, I started back to work last week and it is going quite well.  We have a great "school" for the munchkin, so … Continue reading →

Our friends Chavaun and Jason are getting married!  We are really excited for them so I wanted to do a little something special for her bridal shower to go with her store bought gifts.  The Mason-Dixon dishcloths instantly popped into my head, but I wanted to do something different, too, so I consulted Ravelry and … Continue reading →

He’s here!  I’d like you to meet Cameron!  He was born Friday afternoon at about 4:20 following my induction that morning at 9:30.  He weighed in at a healthy 8 lbs and 8 ounces and measured 20 inches…he’s a big boy!  There is much more to say, but we just got home yesterday and are … Continue reading →

Nope, the kiddo isn’t here, yet…but his blanket is finished! These colors are next to impossible for me and my poor photography skills (not to mention the contractions I’m currently having) to photograph, so this will have to do.  I thought this thing would never get seamed up! Now that it is all assembled, I … Continue reading →
