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 [...]
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. [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
A dollhouse potty on her nose. Hilarity ensued. Nothing like a baby with a good sense of humour!
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Remember last year when I went to the orphan’s Superbowl party? That happened again this past weekend. I left early Sunday morning-my train was at 7:50am-and was picked up by my friends Karen and Greg. We got coffees and went to Karen’s to get all caught up and laugh our heads off. Then Karen drove [...]
