It’s hardly work at all

By in babies, crochet, making stuff is good

Lately it feels-around these parts-that Shannon and I are competing at being the most productive/creative. His soaps and candles and candies are amazing and inspirational.  2 nights ago I found an adorable, free pattern for a knit cardigan on Purl Bee.  I though, hey, I have lots of small ends of sock yarn, I could […]

Done!

By in babies, clothes, crochet, making stuff is good

I decided to go with no sleeves-after knitting half of one-because it’s a hot summer already and this sweater will only fit for about 5 more minutes. I just need to weave in about 800 ends and it will be ready for wrapping paper. Next baby gets this sweater.  Or this dress. And obviously it […]

Babies

By in babies

Seems everyone I know is pregnant these days. Or has just had a baby. Or is just wrapping up their baby-making business. Not me. I went for a long time wanting a baby, then a long time not wanting a baby, back to wanting one. Now it seems it’s too late for babies for me. […]

Beautiful babies

By in babies

I’ve been super lucky to have spent the last 2 weekends hanging out with old friends and their gorgeous (and well behaved!) children. No favourites here, they’re all lovely and somewhat jealous making. Here’s Molly Jane, the grand finale to Ryan and Corrie‘s family.  She’s got navy blue eyes, 2 teeth and no worries in […]

Tradition!

By in a good day, babies, we have fun

As it goes every year, I made my way back to Windsor on Superbowl weekend. It’s a good way to reconnect with my Windsor girls, I love them all so much and miss them like crazy during the rest of the year. The weekend was spent largely getting to know Ruby who’s 15 months old […]

Wee Cait

By in babies

Yes, I already posted this on facebook, so what? The date on the back is May 1974, “Just before Caitlin’s second birthday”, in my mom’s handwriting. I think we had our pictures done regularly at Sears (or…wherever) because we had relatives in England that we didn’t get to see regularly. My sister has a picture […]

Yes. It is what you thought.

A dollhouse potty on her nose. Hilarity ensued. Nothing like a baby with a good sense of humour!

ME RIDE BIKEY!

By in a good day, babies, we have fun

Ari and I went on an overnight road trip to her Oma’s house to spend some final summer time with family. It was quite idyllic and Kathy’s homestead is wonderful. Ari’s cousins are always up for fun and Oma’s gotten her hands on a bunch of kid sized bikes for everyone, including Uncle Devon. I’m […]

Babies.

By in babies

Seems every time I meet a baby I think that THIS is the best baby ever. And then I meet a newer one and I think it all over again-sort of like Artie Lange who always says the same thing about the Miss Howard TV. Anyway, I really did meet the best baby ever this […]

Stitch and Bitch

By in babies

As you may remember, a couple weeks ago we had our first ever stitch and bitch. There were only three people total (which was good, more people would mean taking shorter turns bitching) and I managed to do a complete project start to (almost) finish. All I did when I got home was stuff it […]
