Knitting Update

Lilly's birthday was a lot of fun. We went to Chocolate world and had a wonderful time, I really love Chocolate world. Thank you Hershey!

4 is already a much better age than 3. No kidding. She woke up at 5 am today and had no tantrums all day, amazing. I am loving 4. As my mom said "She has turned an emotional corner." Every day she tells me how much she loves Jackson and that he is her child and her favorite. When I say "Lilly, I love you." She says "And I love Jackson."

I knitted a baby cocoon for my friend who likes photography, so hopefully she can get some cute(r) baby pictures. It is meant for a new born and not for an almost 13lb baby, as you can see Julia is a much better fit. (I couldn't resist stuffing Jackson into what I now call a baby stuff sack)

I am currently working on a bunch of hats because I can't escape my obsessive need to make hats. I am also working on a secret Valentine's day project for Jim which may or may not be this sweater vest that I found on whipup.net.

How adorable- you are out of control! And I envy your entry into the golden years of 4-6. We are in a slump where the boys are aging out and Marley hasn't hit it yet. Those years are wonderful becuase they're becoming independent, but they're still innocent and sweet and think you hung the moon. I miss it!
