Where does the time go??

I can't believe that it has been so long since I posted.... anyways, Erin got her new baby girl on Thursday, She was 7pounds and 10oz and 20" long. As of this morning at 8:50, we have yet to hear of her name. They have had a hard time deciding on what name this little girl should have, so hopefully by this afternoon, we will be able to let everyone know what her name is.
I am just happy that she is here and healthy, and that baby and mommy are doing well. Erin thinks she will come home sometime tomorrow... then the fun will begin, but I am grateful that Stew has taken all next week off work to help her with the girls and then I will be around the following week so that if she needs me, I will be close.
I have been doing quite a bit of hemstitching lately, so that has kept me somewhat busy in the evenings, but I still have some more to do today and then put a quilt on, so I need to get busy.
Until next time.... HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOTHERS.... and keep smiling everyone..

April is flying past me....

With april now on a full roll, I am almost embarrassed to not have published before now...
A big THANKS again to Tracie for my wonderful April name banner.... did I ever ask you what I would do without her??? well I am asking you all now.......

Answer... I would be lost and back to hum-drum headers for my blog.....

HAILEY turned ONE year old on Thursday... She has grown so much. Unfortunatly, she wasn't feeling too well yesterday on her birthday, and so it wasn't too happy for her... luckily Heather and Terry will celebrate her birthday tomorrow along with Terry's birthday which is tomorrow the 11th of april....

I have not been knitting as much this past few weeks... I got out my old Nintendo console and have been battling to get through a few of my old favorite games.... If anyone has been a Nintendo junky over the years it has been ME.... I even bought the Super Nintendo when I was divorced and living alone to help pass the long lonely nights when I was on days off....glad I never got rid of it, but I regret not having the Original front loading Nintendo console with the fun games that I used to play on that one... oh well, time moves on, and so must I....

Have a Great Easter weekend everyone... and stay safe... and dry.. it is supposed to be rainy for most of the weekend...

BYE FOR NOW

March is zooming right by

WOW.. it is almost April already... and Hailey will be 1 year old on the 9th.... Where has that year gone??? man time flies the older I get....

Still been knitting, but not as rapidly as I was... got my sweater finished, but no pictures of it yet... now I am doing a little light blue sweater just in case Erin has a little boy.....She thinks it is a girl, but we can never be too prepared....
Erin's baby is going to be born on May 7th, so they are all getting excited to have a new baby in the house... and I am excited to get to tend another new baby....

HOpe you all are having a wonderful spring wintery week... and I hope more that Spring will come and stay warm, not just tease us for a few days and then snow some more...

MORE PICTURES for you to enjoy

I promised I would post pictures of Hailey's sweater and hats, and also the little stocking caps that I have been knitting for the NICU to use on preemie babies... so here they are..Hailey's sweater is a peach color with white, and the two hats are of the same yarn, one solid and one striped....




Here are the little hats. the picture on my hand on the one hat shows just how tiny they are, so that they will fit the tiniest of little preemie heads...

Promises Kept

Okay, so here are the pictures of the sweaters and hats that I have knitted for Lauren and Averi. What better way to display them than while they are modeling them for me...right?
Sorry that they aren't the best pictures, but I was too lazy to take the girls outside in the sunlight to get a good picture and besides, the girls would have been squinting from the sun.
Lauren's is the blue and light green stripes,and Averi's is rose and white stripes... as for the hats... I just started knitting and that is what came out... I also did a peach and white striped sweater for Hailey with matching hat, but I haven't got the zipper in Hailey's sweater yet, so I will post pictures of it when I get it done.... Thanks for looking.... and commenting..
