Big Boy

Happy Birthday to my sweet precious baby boy.  Four years old already...and it seems like you were just barely born.  Every day that passes reminds how lucky I am to be your mama.

I'm A Fickle Lover

I have cheated.  I betrayed and turned my back on my deep deep love of....cuff-down socks.  What kind of a person am I?? 


I love knitting socks from the toe up.  Completely love it.  They seem to knit up faster, for some reason beyond me.  I finished my first Think Pink sock last week, cast on for the second last night and finished the entire toe and two repeats of the pattern.  I'm hoping to get it done soon so I can cast on for Haruni, because that's going to take me for-flippin-ever, I think.

My baby boy's birthday is on Tuesday.  :(  I can't believe he's going to be four. 
He went from this:
 To this:
It's so hard to believe.  What's doubly hard to believe is that my daughter, my first-born, my precious baby girl, will be SIX in a week.  SIX!!!!  I'm super excited for their birthday party next Saturday, though.  My mom and I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday and raided their circus-themed party section.  We even got red clown noses for the goody bags, which are, incidentally, little red-and-white-striped, old fashioned popcorn boxes.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go watch a movie on my laptop, work on my sock, and laugh at my neighbors who are being blown all over the place by the 60-mph winds that are currently roaring outside.  Seriously, just put off watering your plants until tomorrow.  I promise they'll survive.
