Hadley continues to be a super baby. I posted on Facebook today that I feel like I’ve won the Mommy lottery. In an unscientific at-home measurement, she weighs 15.6 lbs. and is 24.75″ long. This puts her in the 100th percentile for weight and 90th for length. Go Chubba-Chunk! She’s been sleeping through the night for {…Continue Reading}
My maternity leave has ended, so Hadley started daycare on Monday. Since we had kept Arden there to hold her place and to keep her attending preschool we were all pretty used to the routine for getting out the door in the morning. I don’t remember why Arden was upset, but check out that pouty {…Continue Reading}
Hadley is a little over two months! I was waiting for her two-month well check to post this so I would have her updated measurements. As of today, she is 14 lbs., 13 oz and 24″ long. That puts her at 97th percentile for weight, and 90th for height. Looks like she’s going to be {…Continue Reading}
I made my first pair of shoes today! I used a pattern from Amy at Naptime Crafter’s Etsy store; Peekaboo Pattern Shop. I won a giveway on Fingerprints on the Fridge a while ago and I had chosen as one of my prizes the Pleated Mary Jane shoe pattern. Amy and I were both participants on Project {…Continue Reading}
I did it! I finally finished the second fair isle sweater for big sister Arden. Here it is with the smaller version I made for Hadley. I made this one size larger than the pattern was written, which involved a lot of figuring, so I’m really happy with how it turned out. Don’tcha just love the {…Continue Reading}
While waiting for more yarn to arrive to finish the last three rows on the fair isle sweater I’m knitting for Arden, I finished up a cute little flower hat for Hadley. It’s the same pattern to coordinate with the one I made in purple for Arden last fall. It’s from Itty Bitty Hats by Susan B. {…Continue Reading}
So, if you’ve read any of my posts lately, you know I’ve got a new cutie in my life. I thought I’d give you a little glimpse into what my world looks like on a daily basis right now… I spend 80% of my time on the living room sofa. It’s littered with the paraphanalia of {…Continue Reading}
Just couldn’t resist posting this picture of my littlest cutie snoozing this afternoon. I’m making good progress on the fair isle sweater, so hopefully will have a finished sweater to share soon! I’m working on the fair isle part, which is the most fun.
Whew! It’s been over two weeks since my last post. I guess I’ve been a bit busy with these two cuties… And I’ve been knitting every chance I get to finish the fair isle sweater for Arden that I started to match Hadley’s 3-6 month one that she’s threatening to outgrow any day… Then my {…Continue Reading}
Our sweet little Hadley has reached her first milestone – one month! After initial concerns about failing to gain weight after leaving the hospital, she’s made up for it in fine form and at her one month check was 11 pounds, 4 ounces and 23 inches long. Both measurements put her in the 97th percentile {…Continue Reading}
