Fall Rules

I finally got my camera and pics situated. This was our trip to the orchard. We love fall!

It's a girl

I found out yesterday that we are having a girl in February. We are very excited, I feel so blessed. Since we have gotten our new laptop, I haven't figured out how to get my pictures from my camera onto my comp. I am not very computer savy. I desperately need to because of all the wonderful things that I am hoping to crochet and sew for this baby. It is going to be my project this afternoon. So hopefully I can post some pics soon.

Another month

Bless me website for I have sinned, it has been one month since my last blog. It is not like I have great excuses. I have been really enjoying fall. Making lots of festive foods. I am thinking I might turn into a Macintosh apple, or a can of pumpkin.

We have also been battling illness. Last week my boy had a mysterious fever but no other really obvious symptoms. Till Mama comes down with a whole body ache, then whole body itch and painful rash on my hands. Apparently it is Hand, foot and mouth disease, and it is usually only common in children or pregnant women with low immunity. All in all we are well. We will be continuing our fall activities and maybe I will get a chance to post um.

Seriously Summer Slumped

So the last time I blogged was in June. I was complaining about my month slump, which in turn has stretched into a summer slump. It is not like I have been doing nothing, we have actually been very busy this summer. Between camping, softball, traveling to NH and house repairs, we really have had no down time. What little downtime I have had, I have been busy creating a human in my uterus. That's right we are having number 2. I have completed the first trimester and have some returned energy. I have an overload of fall ideas to cook and create. I am hoping that I will no longer go through these terrible slumps, and neglect my blog. I guess only time will tell.

This picture was taken on Jack's 3rd birthday. A wonderful moment of rest captured by my MIL.

Month Slump

After not posting for a month, I have decided it is sheer laziness. So in an attempt to make up for my blog laziness. Jack's godmother spoils him with random gifts, like this mini Adirondack rocking chair. After a few coats of stain. Voila!

First sweaters

Well it has been a long time since I have blogged. We have been very busy with summer activities, and house repairs. I have had time to crochet 2 sweaters. Though I have yet to tackle the adult sweater I had practice on these darling Baby Kimono Wrap by Susanne Visch. It is a pattern that I got from ravelry I believe.

I am also enjoying the peonies that have recently bloomed in my yard. God bless the previous owners of the house for planting random perennials around the property. I have this to stare at while we eat stuffed shells for dinner. I have never made them before, so hopefully they will turn out.

busy spring

I have been in a crafting funk. It seems like I have many projects and ideas but no inspiration to start something. I can't decide if it's because it's so nice outside and it feels wrong to be crocheting/sewing etc.

We have been enjoying the newest edition to our house.

We haven't done much else but play with his new swingset/playhouse. Hopefully the creative juices will start flowing again.
