knitting projects

Started working on this tree of life sweater for the new baby, but it's actually more for Brendan's size.
Made this spur of the moment for the new baby, but it's rather girlie, so maybe it will become a gift for a girlfriend with a baby girl.

Knitting update

Made this for the new baby. It's the Baby Poonam pattern.
My felting experiment for a diaper bag. It turned out a lot bigger than I anticipated. We'll see how much use it gets.
Current fair isle experiment. I've never tried to knit gloves before and so far, the fingers are not much fun. I'll have to redo the part that I've done for the fingers.
Tree of Life sweater. Meant it for the new baby at about 6-9 months, but it's knitting up mucho bigger. It might even fit Brendan! That's what I get for not swatching. Oh well!

Brendan's PreK Graduation

They sang Yellow Submarine and Baby Beluga.
They had little diplomas each child got.
A very proud little graduate! Although, mom and dad may be just as proud!

Swim lessons

Launching himself off the diving board on the last day of swim lessons!
After being caught in the deep end.
About to dive with the instructor.
Just resurfaced!

Waiting for the lessons to start with buddies Nathan and Max.

Brendan in the sprinkler




These are from late April, but thought they were so cute and such nice images of Brendan, I'd post them now.

More baby sweaters



I've finished Brendan's hooded sweater to match the baby's hooded sweater I finished a while back (see Feb 15 post). I also finished another baby sweater, this time a wrap. I'm about to finish another baby sweater with cabling. I'll post that when I'm done.

Minor League baseball


The three of us went to the Rivercats game last night. Brendan tanked up on surgary stuff and was squirmy all evening, but at least he enjoyed himself thoroughly!
