I'm having a girl!

So, we found out on David's birthday that we are expecting a girl. Life has been crazy lately. I have been able to give myself some knitting time lately though. I am over half done with a baby sweater. It is turning out SO cute.

Anyways, back to baby. As of today we are naming her Brooke Annalee. We are having a 3d/4d US on Feb 23rd. Look out for pictures!

Ramblings from DC

I have decided to try to write down some of the crazy things DC says to me...

Lately he has been using some cute words to describe things, like, "that's crazy", "that's terrific", etc...

The best saying lately is...
"Mom, last night I was dreaming of power rangers, transformers and computers, (then he whispers in my ear) and my penis!"

Completely forgot about my blog here...

I can't remember if I posted last about the pregnancy? Well, I found out at the end of Sept that I am pregnant. It was quite a surprise since I have been infertile for so many years. This baby happened naturally. Of course, just a month after my initial visit with the fertility specialist. :) I have faith that God has healed my body and that this pregnancy will go just fine.

I am now 17 weeks and we will go in on Jan 9th, DC's birthday for the big US. I am hoping to find out the gender at that visit. I also have a 3D/4D scan scheduled for Feb 16th as well.

Now that I am feeling better I have done some crafting. I have sewn some blankets, wipes and burp cloths. I have crocheted some shorties. I am looking for some other easy things to do now.

My mom comes to visit on the 5th. I leave on the 6th to go to CA for a business trip and come back on the 8th. DC's b-day and my US are on the 9th, I am having a jewelry party on the 11th and his birthday party on the 12th. It is going to be a BUSY week!

Anyways, hopefully I can stay on top of my blog from now on! Write more soon...

Missing my dad

Man, time flies. My dad died 11/2/06. Almost 11 months ago. I don't cry as much or as often, but I still tear up often. I do think of him all the time and miss him so much! So does DC. The cutest things make him remember his Grampy. Especially DONUTS! Oh, they both love their donuts. Miss you dad!

Sock Progression

At the last knitting group I went to, Michelle was nice enough to show me magic looping, except I got home and couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do. I moved my stitches back to my DPNs and now I need to frog a few rows. I am going to take my sock back to her the next time I see her and have her help me frog it. :) all I have left is the ribbing, so I don't want to screw it up during the frog!

Well, again, been too long

It seems as though work may be slowing down a little. I am starting to volunteer at DC's school this week. I am still knitting. Recently I did about 8 washies for myself and for a swap. I'll add a pic of the two for the swap. I am also in the process of making my first pair of socks for myself. I am on sock #1 right now. I've also added a pic of my progress on that.
