The Trick Is

Not to sit down. If I keep moving, well, I keep moving. That Newton guy knew what he was talking about. Trouble is, I have a baby that needs to be fed and cuddled. This involves sitting down periodically. Then, I have trouble getting started again.
I would show you all the knitting that I have done, but sekrit xmas stuff is going on here. Hopefully, I will remember to take pictures upon delivery.
So, that makes this entry preeeetty boring.
Kid updates- Eldest is having trouble delivering important papers to school, unless it involves him getting tickets for lunch.
INBA is still insisting that he cannot read and refuses to do so. But he can read, he just doesn't enjoy it as much as his brother does and has to work a little harder. How do I get it thru to him that he is not his brother and to expect himself to be his brother is not helping anyone?
Lil'onE is growing like a weed. She is very vocal, loves to make raspberries (wow, that girl has a lot of saliva) and likes to rub things between her finger and thumb.

Life is hectic... Happy Holidaze!

6 Months Already

It's All Fun and Games...

Until someone gets stitches.Monkeying around on the bus, of course. Although, it seems that he happened to be innocent of the Monkeying, this time. It is still a game that the boys play regularly on the bus home, poking each other. He was caught off guard and knocked off balance and the bus came to a stop, all at the same time. He fell and hit his head and ended up on the floor. 3 stitches. OUCH.
Love the MedExpress on 19 at Boyce Road!! In and out in about 50 minutes.

And a stocking for the Lil'onE. I have been working on Christmas gifts and fretting already that I am not going to get much done. Man, these kids put a crimp in my knitting time! That and those darn jewel games on facebook. hee-hee.

Matchy Match

I finished my Lady Tulip to match the beautiful Tulip that Laurie made for Lil'OnE.
And I worry that she is going to be a peas-on-the-wall girl.
Ok, that doesn't sound good. But look at the arm going and the splatter on the face! We are getting a little better with the whole 'solid food' thing... but I have several damp towels close by at all times.

And I finally had a professional portrait taken of Lil'OnE... only took 5 months.
I must say, she is peaches. :)
The boys are busy with school. The Mister took them for the Cub Scout Fall Campout last weekend. in.the.rain. How's that for dedication?
Eldest has taken up Trombone for the school band. That is interesting. But only for about 20 minutes a day. heh.
I am hoping that the weather improves for the weekend. The Hickory Apple Festival is this weekend and I want to go.
How's that for a nutshell?

A Walk on History

The covered bridge featival is this weekend in Washngton and Greene counties. Excellent excuse to be out with the family.
