'Cause I'm a Swinger, Baby!

This is why I love sunny days at the park :)














More of my "Knit Along"




Although the Knit Along is over because they finished the sweater. I'm still plugging along at it in between things that I'm knitting for others and parenting my kids ;) I've officially started on the sleeve now, so I can no longer reserve it for my "Could be a really cool dickie" pile.




Swimming Lessons!

Charlie doing what he does best...waiting for Henry. Oh, the life of a second born.
See my tooth?!




Henry LOVES his swimming lessons. The other little boy in his class and he have a great time together....

He's Got the Rhythm...

Henry the Helper

And so the child-proofing begins again...just when you think you're done, the next one's ready to roll (or walk)

It's a Wrap!

Fashion Hostage?
Or willing participant?

Spring has sprung and with it, the first cotton short-sleeved sweater of the season.
This cute wrap sweater is heading to Alaska where it may be layered over a long sleeved shirt for awhile, but that's okay. Hopefully it'll last her through next Fall and beyond! (the random string in the back is just something that was on the table...forgot to brush it off before trying it on my model :)) As you will be able to see, seaming is still my weakness...if I can figure out how to knit this baby in the round I will... Holding 2 strands of cotton yarn and using size 13 needles, this project is a super quick knit, taking about 4 hours from start to finish plus seaming time. Oh, and it's made in size 2 years, which is why it fits a little on the short side on dear H.

My Boys


Henry asked me to take their picture...he's so proud of "My Dad" and his brother...or as he calls him "The Baby Hippo" (I have no idea why)
