Celebrating our shark

{Yes, this birthday post is late!} .:Finally - his very own paint set (from Nana and Grandpa):. .:Cutting out his shark tattoos:. .:Did his own face paint (he said he was a shark):. .:Playing Wildcraft:. .:My goofy attempt at a shark cake:. .:His birthday sweater- a flax with a broken rib stitch mod. Rav notes here:.
Five. How can that be?! I admit that since the birth of Baby F, Little L does look a lot older but I still see him as my baby. His birthday celebration was over the course of a few days due to me just not being able to get my act together. I still can't. He waited patiently to receive a special knit shark for days after his birthday only to have it come out like a mutant shark, yet he is still happy with it.

My dear, sweet boy. He is our bringer of light and lover of life. How very blessed we are to have chosen us to be his family.

p.s. I apologize for not responding to recent comments. I will be very soon, though!

Keep Calm Craft On {crafting on}

The act of creating, in one form or another, preserves my sanity amongst the chaos of life. This explains why I always have more than one project going at a time as well as why my housework tends to fall behind. I enjoy seeing what others are working on and keeping calm with, too. What are you creating? What is keeping you going? Snap a picture or two and share it with the rest of us by leaving your link below.
My MadTosh yarn that I am using for the babywearing cover is bleeding like crazy so I am trying to set the dye again to see if that helps. I've got my fingers crossed!

C's birthday is sneaking up on me and she has requested a cardigan in a robin's egg blue. I am out of cardigan/sweater ideas and would love your thoughts. What is your favorite girl's cardigan pattern? She would need a size 8.

What are you working on? Happy creating!
