Beautiful Baby of Mine.

Well it was going to happen I just wasn't ready for it to happen so soon. She was so funny today. She told me, "okay Mom I am ready, you can pull it." So Paw paw came over and gave it a good tug and it came out.




She is going to be starting Kindergarten on Aug. 10. I can't believe it. the twins will be going to Daycare 3 half days a week and I already have a job at the local yarn store. I am so excited!!

I finished another Hat.

I love the Caramel knitted hat. It's free on Ravelry. This will be my second one made and gifted. I hope the receiver loves it as much as I do. NEXT ONE IS MINE!!!



I am going to also make he one of those multi directional scarves to go with it...all kinds of green.

Can anyone guess me favorite color.

It's good to be back Jenny, thanks. It feels good to be excited about something again. I have been exercising and knitting and feeling more like Angela instead of mom.

And Brena...I LOVE my yard too. I lived so long without one. It's one of the reasons why we relocated from California here. I wanted my kids to be able to play.It was sooo worth it.

I got some beautiful Noro.

I got three skeins of Noro Furisode.




My plan is to make a pattern from Big Girl Knits.



I think it's gonna be the Amelia corset. I can't find a picture but I hope I like it more than the girls on Ravelry.

And Now some pictures from my front porch.

Oh Man.....I LOVE IT!!!

I have a new place to go knit now and I am really getting back into my knitting. It feels so good to be around other women that have the same interests as me again. So everybody go to The Yarn Cottage and check it out. It's so cool to sit and knit.....that's it man just sit and knit and not have a care in the world. It makes me feel like a human again...not this anonymous person that takes care of these three little girls and a husband. Do you know what I mean?

I have been walking two miles a day and not doing my kettle bell workout as often as I should but I am still loving it. I feel so strong and "tall" after my workout. Does that sound crazy that I feel taller? Well I do. At 5'1" feeling taller is a real big deal. So there you go folks. I will post pictures of my FO later.

Bye for now.

Kettlebells, Wasps and Mosquito Bites

Darcy woke up this morning and was fine and then she sat down for breakfast. This is what I saw when she was done and came to sit in my lap.




I don't know about you but I asked myself,"How the hell does a mosquito bite you one the forehead and YOU DON'T NOTICE IT?" I guess she was really into her cinnamon toast. Looking at that face today sent me into fits of laughter. She has this face that is always so full of expression and then that bite on top of it was way too much. I guess you might also ask yourself how a mosquito got into our house....I don't know what to say, we live in Alabama, it rains alot.

Now something not so funny, Kendra and the wasp. Also happened in the house. I can explain that one. In the summer we have a big wasp problem and they come in through the chimney. I didn't get a good picture of the bite. Just the face.



My Grandma use to put bleach on any old bite and sting we use to get. I can't tell you how many times I laughed at the old woman behind her back. It really works people. It didn't swell AT ALL!! Sorry Grandma.

And lastly I got a kettlebell today. I'll let you know how that goes.

No sillies, that's not me in the video.

Starbucks, I can't quit you.

So I have been doing a lot of walking like I said last time. I didn't realize what a chore it would be to do without my tunes. My ipod is frozen on the menu page and I don't know how to unfreeze it.

So no tunes. You know it might not be such a bad idea walking without my music, I do need to hear the kids playing and all that "important" stuff. But......I really really miss it.

I have been listening to a lot of Van Morrison lately. Not exactly walking music but fun to cook dinner to. Libby actually does a little singing to it.


And I hate you Starbucks!! I love you too much. Bastards -for filling me up with calories.

The twins turn three.

It's the last Sunday of the month and Mike has to work. Dad has finished three sides of the fence so it's safe for the kids to go out and play so they are out there kicking their soccer balls around. Can you believe the twins turned three today?
My Aunt and Uncle came over along with my mom and dad and we had a great party for them. My dad got them fishing poles and Kendra can already cast. I can't believe it.

I have been walking around the fence line since it was put up. My dad says that 6 times around "if you walk the actual property line is a mile". But there is a fence there so I can't do that. I walk 7x and call it a mile. Sometimes I do it once a day sometimes three times. It feels good to get out and so something and not have to worry about the kids. They can get out the back part of the property but it's on the edge of another property so it's really not something we have to take care of right away. Dad will have to cut down some trees before the fence can go up. And by some I mean a whole bunch.




The fence line will go down the middle of that stump so that will have to be taken out. Anyway the kids are having a lot of fun playing. That's all they want to do now.
Rain or shine Darcy wants to go and play.

Here are some birthday pic.

College.

I think I am going back to college. I think maybe teaching? That way I can be at home with the kids at summer.

Spiders On Drugs

This is so funny.
