So today I had over a group of my mom's friends that we've known for a long time. Of course I wanted Tuesday to look her best so I asked Bj what she should wear. Her little dress, he said. But as I mentioned on the last post finding cool little tights hasn't been easy. …

The knitter in me can’t help herself.
Tuesday is briefly letting me off the hook, I just laid her down (about 15 minutes ago so she should be ready to hang out again any second now… just kidding I've got Enya blasting). I have a sure fire way to get her to conk out, if ever so briefly: swaddle her, plop her …
Princess Sparkly Pants get in her groove
Yesterday Tuesday did so great. My little bird, Bj and I went to my mom's to watch the Superbowl eat snacks and watch commercials. Bill, his mom and my step brother Taylor were also there so I had to take advantage of baby holding. It got a couple laughs but I brought the little sweater …
Enya Rocks?
Let's not talk about how this picture was taken at 2:30 a.m. We had a letter to drop off at the post office so we thought we do it in the middle of the night… oh and she would not stop crying! I'd like to say this worked, but as soon as we laid her …
The first week
Wow, thanks for the wonderful response, I didn't really know what to expect. And to backtrack some thanks, I loved all the comments from when we first posted her picture and stats. I read them all night long on my iPhone while figuring out the breast feeding thing. Oh and thanks for the name love, …
Baby and house goodness
Ah this is a relief: So much better, and exactly what I was thinking. I will have to buy two boxes of tile, but at least they are some of the cheapest tiles known to man. That's as high as they can go in one day because the tiles can only hold each other up …
Little spaces
So the upstairs is finally finished. There is touch up paint to do, but I'm like FORGET IT! I'll do it. I want my space worker free thank you. The alcove (in the little dormer at the front of the house) is finished: Of course not organized. It takes a very pregnant person a long …
It’s freaking crazy outside!
Or as the local stations like to say: STORM WATCH ARCTIC FREEZE STORM 2008 or something like that. My cottage looks so cute! I mean icicles, we never get those! They even make the garbage can look cute. And snow does wonders to all manners of things you wish were not in your yard, like …
Brrr time for more knitting
Well that didn't last. I told all my friends to take the extra candy. In a fit of pregnancy induced craziness, obviously! So I have been dismantling it with my paper piercer. I got desperate, you see I'm a bit trapped: (the backyard, normally I wouldn't show you a picture of it, since it's full …
Crew girl fun times
Yesterday was our annual crew girl holiday party. Note to the casual reader: I call them crew girls because we were all on the Oregon State Crew team together (rowing). In addition to our evening festivities this year we had a joint baby shower for Tracy and I, who are due on the same day …
