A clothed belly picture
If you had any idea how difficult it was to get this picture... well, you'd appreciate it a lot more. Carl was a grumpy, hasty, unwilling photographer and I was a bit of a diva. Regardless, I think it's fairly decent.
I'm enjoying my belly so much. It's a lovely thing to rub and enjoy. I think it suits me and I may attempt to be pregnant for the rest of my life so I can always have a baby belly. It's great. Overall, I have nothing to complain about. This has been a wonderful pregnancy and I'm blessed to not be suffering from many afflictions. I have some heartburn and sleeping isn't as fun as it used to be, but I'm still feeling fantastic.
I'm very excited to be wearing jeans again! I haven't fit my old jeans for months and I was unwilling to buy new ones until I was ready for maternity pants. Now I'm wearing Motherhood Maternity's SecretFit jeans and they're great! So comfortable. It's nice to feel human again.
Oh dear. If I love this baby half as much as I love this toy, he will be covered head-to-toe in slobber. I brought the toy (I think his name is Kiwi) to work today to show Dr. Kardos (a fellow knitter) and I couldn't help but snatch him out of my purse every 45 minutes or so for a quick cuddle. I tried to do it on the sly so my coworkers wouldn't give me a hard time. I failed a few times but it was totally worth it.

Some recent projects
This is my first hat and my first attempt at Cables, made using a delicious Baby Alpaca Yarn. This was gifted to Carl's dad, Eddie. (Forgive the iPhone picture)
This is the same pattern, different yarn made from Alpaca, Wool and Silk. It was nice and chunky. Carl's mom got this one. I'll post pictures of her wearing it as soon as Eddie sends them to me.
Lamb toy for August. I figured babies grow fast so I'll spend most of my baby-knitting on hats and toys that (I hope!) he'll get to use more. This lamb is made from the same Baby Alpaca yarn I used on Eddie's hat. It's so soft and fuzzy.
He has a darling face. I need a name... Any ideas?
So this is what I've been doing with my time. I have another 4 or 5 projects cued up - I'm waiting for my interchangable Needle set from Knitpicks.com
I have a sweater for August, a hat for Carl, and a hat and a cowl neckwarmer for me ready to start. Where are those needles?! :)
I love Christmas
I don't love how behind I get in nearly everything!! I was so busy making Christmas gifts and trying to come to terms with the rapidly approaching Holiday, I lost track of my blog and taking pictures. I'll try to be better. For now, here are some random Christmas-y shots.
My silly husband trying on a gift for August (sweater and pants) from my dear friend Joanne ("Auntie Jo").
