Really Cute pics I had to share of a baby elephant!

I apologize to those of you who are here to see knitting stuff. I am still knitting and you can guiltlessly skip this post, but I didn't get any GOOD pictures at halloween of any of my kiddlings, and little b had an explosion in his clothes today and this is what I grabbed to change him into and after his nap he was in rare form. So while the other 2 beauties slept I snapped away and just love what came out!!!

Christmas Pagent, Santa, and finshed projects, oh my!!

My Big girl did her first Christams Sunday School Pagent, and can I say bursting at the seams with pride. My big girl said her lines slowly, clearly, and loudly! She remembered what she was supposed to do, as one of the 3 kings! (The pictures leave a lot to be desired but the church was too dark and my camera is not the best, but it works!!!)

I am actually not exactly sure what the otherking was doing to my daughter (adjusting her crown perhaps?)

Love this picture, bald head in the lower right corner cathces the flash and they eyes spookily glowing in the background!! :)

Daddy caught her after she had unrigged and made her rig back up so he could get a picture!! :)

Fleece stuffed mittens for my big girl! All done in just a few hours!!!


Big B in his jammies on Santa's lap! Last year he climbed the walls at just the thought of sitting on some strange fat man's lap :) He didn't sit there long, but later in life I will thank him for humoring mommy. He has been very sick, actually today was the first day since Monday that he didn't have a fever. Long story, short it has been a long worrisome week!

My big girl seems more worried about baby bro, than telling santa what is on her list. She finally did tell him she would like a shimmering lights ariel barbie doll. He said he had lots of them. Baby B seems to be wishing for a nap. Something tells me next year will be a diferent story though.

Santa brought S a miniprincess barbie from one of the movies that came with a crown for her to wear, she LOVED IT!! He brought Big B a giggling elmo drill with cookie monster googles.....oh my goodness talk about thrilled, perhaps in appropriate, but nonetheless humorous, we have some animated mice (thanks MOM!!) that have been under the eves, gotten wet, and been chewed on by real mice, that had to be fixed before they would work this year, the first thing Big B did was find one and locate the screws and go right to work, I won;t go into details but use your imagination!!!!!!! It was humorous!

OOOH Laaa Laaaa Finito, and other knitterings!

Ok so as you can see the sweater is finished...(hehehe and this is what little b did while I finished it LOL)

Here is an actual pic of the finished sweater, it blocked very nicely and I am hoping that APPB will let me get a picture of her wearing the sweater! It was a fun pattern to knit and was quick, in reality, although the sleeves were painful in 2x3 ribbing!

This is just how far my second sock got before the yarn petered out!!! WAA.....well here's hoping and wishing for a knit picks. com gift certificate from the fat man in the red suit!!

Ok so here is the actual proof!! S came downstairs after going to bed and said she couldn't sleep because she had a tummy ache......Mommy asked "so how much frosting did you eat?" to which she replied "None" hmm this pic is a bit suspicous ain't it???



Little B waiting for mommy to finish downloading the pictures so she can feed him.....lol Priorities you know! Just look at him doesn't he look the part of an undernourished neglected child??? NOT!!!


This is Big B getting his temp lowered! Poor little man has had a fever for 4 days now off and on, went to the doc yesterday, and got no real diagnosis.......today called and he conferred with our pediatrician and if his fever goes over 100.5 we are to call and they will give us antibiotics...hmmmmmmm.

Big B demanded that little B wear sissies hat.....a pink flowery scooby doo hat. He definitely looks cute in a brain cover!!!

Our house was over 80 degrees today so everyone was pretty much stripped!!!!!! It is December in Maine, what is going on?????

I am now up to the thumbs on fleece stuffed mittens for the big sis. No pics as of yet but I knot them out of unknown scraps a pattern from my head (or lack of pattern, they are very plain) and I knit them 2 at a time on 2 circular needles. They came out good!!!

What is next?

Ok so let me preface this post with the fact that I hate posts without pictures and I myself USUALLY skip those. Shame on me I know, BUT I had to post as I am so excited, and I did not want to post a pictures quite yet.

I am DONE the Stacy Pullover for APPB!! Woooooohooooooo. The arms are on, and I even taught myself how to crochet today so that I could do the trim around the neck!!!!! I have to block it and then I will post some pics.

I was so happy I cast on my second sock, for which I know I do not have enough yarn but I want to see how far I get!!!

(I am doing the happy dance very quietly, as both boys are asleep and big B is coming down with something, and has been a wholey terror all day!!!!)

Whew....life gets in the way Part 2!!!

OK first to update on the kids and if you aren't bored to death I will update the knitting too!!! I actually am quite happy on the knitting front!!!Can you say NOT impressed?!?!?! Little B looks oh so thrilled to have a camera pushed in his face yet AGAIN!!! I think this picture is just way too cute! look at those juicy baby lips!!!!
Wouldn't you love to be able to sleep this peacefully again??
Look at that cute little fly trap!!!
And if you slept that peacefully at night you would be this happy right out of bed in the morning!!! WOOHOO, if only it were that easy!!!!
Ain't he cute??????? Yes the other 2 are still alive and kicking they just don't hold still long enough to snap a picture!!!!!!!!!

So the Stacy sweater body is all done, with one sleeve 2/3 done!!! The sleeves are heinous-ly (is that a word) boring 2 x 3 ribbing BLECH!!! And I have one sock of my own done........and Houston we have a problem here......look at the second picture.....hmm there does not appear to be enough yarn to complete a second sock.....grrrrr an excuse to buy and dye more yarn.....yeehaw!!!! So there is a brief update and I will try not to be so slacker about it!!!!
