My project.

Saturday night Joseph and I went over to spend time with Robin and Neal and their two little kiddies (who were very shy upon our arrival).  Caius (the eldest), as soon as he would talk to me, would call me "Mommy, ... Grandpa,  ..." and then continue with whatever he wanted to show me.  It was really cute and made me laugh every time.  While we were there, the boys went off to play some computer game in the back room while Robin and I worked on some projects.  She made several Christmas stockings - which I now want to make for my growing family, and I started on some little tiny baby booties!  Once we left I had finished one booty which was so stinking small!  Over the next couple of days I worked on a matching hat and then the other booty (the second one didn't take me nearly as long to finish as the first).

I got sick of doing the hat about half way through.. so it's really small and *might* fit a premature baby.  Hopefully we won't have to use that one...  BUT..

BOOTIES!!  They're extra small and extra adorable.  One is also slightly smaller than the other, it's hard to make things the same size!!  When I finished the second one, I attached them together with a bit of yarn so I can hang them on the tree and they can be baby's ornament.  Then she can wear them when she's born (after detaching them of course)... then they'll go back up on the tree next christmas!!  Yay for completed projects!!!

  1. Cute hat! And you have to walk me through the booties when I find out what I'm having, so don't forget how you made them! We should go to the craft store soon for more craft materials.
