Last weekend Abigail spent quite a few hours with her cousin Melanie (who is 1 TODAY!). She decided sitting up to play (like Melanie does) is so much better than laying down and playing. She is becoming quite the master at it!
The two cousins (Abigail & Melanie) wore matching dresses on Sunday but I guess [...]
…for neglecting the blog for the last week.
A good friend of mine lost her job last week, then I got a cold & went away for the weekend so I’ve been busy.
Here’s my cutie on 10/15
and on 10/19 in the sweater I knit her (btw, it didn’t fit her as well a week later!)
That same [...]
I had never heard of this place when Terry suggested it but I now realize people usually call it Taylors Falls or St Croix Falls. There actually aren’t “falls” anymore but we won’t get into details!
Terry decided we should go here as part of my birthday celebration and I thought it was a great idea! [...]
We celebrated 6 birthdays this past Sunday. I’ll just give you a few highlights.
I’m pretty sure she liked her present… It was some material to make a tablecloth, placemats (maybe) & napkins plus some paint to match. She asked for all these things because she’s going to make an orange & yellow tea set [...]
I dressed Abigail in the cutest fleece outfit on Saturday morning. It had a sheep on it so that got me thinking that I should take some pictures of her with some yarn. Here she is with some Dream in Color Smooshy Sock Yarn.
Hey Dad? I think I like this one!
This yarn tastes so yummy! [...]
I’m still working on the Caledonian Mist socks…getting much closer to done which is good because my time is almost up! I still don’t have a new picture of them but the second one looks almost exactly like the first one (aren’t you glad) and I’m almost that far.
I’m thinking about my next projects and [...]
On Friday night we celebrated our nephew’s 2nd birthday. He got some pretty cool presents including a very fun motorcycle!
And a “Goodnight Moon” cake.
Abigail had lots of fun with her Aunt Tracey and she loved watching this video over the weekend!
This weekend we also installed a programmable thermostat and completely rearranged the living room.
I’ll [...]
We had a pretty quiet weekend at home.
I got some organizing and laundry done. Then a bit of knitting on the Caledonian Mist socks and plans for our next big birthday party are in the works!
Abigail looks pretty happy after her bath on Friday night doesn’t she?
Terry worked on the lawn and some residual dirt [...]
Abigail went in for her 4 month doctor’s appointment on Monday. We got there early so i figured we’d wait around for a bit. I barely had a chance to sit down and look at the developmental checklist before they called us in.
She weighed in at 15lbs 2oz, height of 26in and a head circumference [...]
On Saturday Abigail turned 4 months old–she spent a few hours in a parade listening to “Hi Baby” “Look at the baby” “It’s a baby!” She was a hit!
For a closer look at the sling she’s in:
It’s called an Eclecticos but unfortunately they are now discontinued. I borrowed this from April for the weekend just [...]
