Migraines

For the past few days I have had a nonstop headache. Well, earlier I was officially diagnosed with Migraine headaches. This opened up a door to a really nifty drug called Imitrex. :) I think I am happy with my Dr for the moment.

Now to get this whole sleep schedule of mine back on track... *sigh* If it isn't one thing, invariably it is something else.

Oh, my children were so sweet earlier today. They managed to unravel most of the foot of the sock I have been working on. What little dears I have. :) Guess they didn't like how it was working up, so wanted me to start over. Hahaha!

Updates

Since I haven't posted here in what seems like forever, I figure I should at least mention that in March I gave birth to Dean. Needless to say life has been a bit hectic since then. Tomorrow I will be taking pictures and posting them here to share my little man and some of the woolies that I have made for him the past few months.

I look forward to getting back in the habit of blogging from time to time. :)

Lots of projects to share

I have been busy the last couple of months with making things. I thought that it was about time that I shared some of them! LOL


Newborn knit "Inspiration" longies for Dean

Small knit Rainbow longies for Dean

February already!

It doesn't seem possible that it is February already! There is so much to get done this month, and it feels like there is no time to get it all done. I will be finishing my first term of college in the next couple of weeks and I am freaking out! In a good way, but still freaking out.


I have been working on a very cute tunic for Piper in the "Piper" colorway from Bohemia Yarn Co. I will post pics as soon as I get the second sleeve finished. :) I have also been busy making hats, pants, kimono's, scarves, etc the last month or so. I have just really had the need to knit and crochet things, so I have been doing so in every spare minute.


I am now entering week 30 of my pregnancy. We came up with a name for our boy, so in the next 7-8 weeks we will be welcoming Dean Samuel into our family. It is such a relief to have a name!!! It will also be a nice relief to know that my baby creating days are at an end. 5 kids in 10 years is plenty, and now it is time for John and I to move onto the next phase of our lives as parents. I think it will be quite an adventure!


More from our world later!

The Era of Obama Is In Full Swing!

I am finding it an interesting ride following Obama as he is signing things into law and trying to get his ideas passed through Congress. I find it incredibly interesting that ZERO republicans voted for the "stimulus" package that he insists NEEDS to be passed, or America will cease to be able to function. Banks will fail, grocery stores will close, people will no longer be able to do anything but sit on their butts and look at each other until Big Brother steps in to save us all from ourselves... give me a break. "Green" jobs are a nice idea, but highly impractical considering how much more expensive "green" energy is. Yup, sign me up for that one please. I am so proud of the republicans in the House for standing on principle and not caving to the bully tactics of the left. Now the Senate needs to take a page out the House book. I am not going to hold my breath on that one though. *sigh* I certainly hope that the democrats continue down this path however. So I will end this particular rant with that.

In other news, I am about to finish my first term in college. Woohoo! I think that I will end up with pretty decent grades, and the next term has some classes that I think I will enjoy. Guess we will see.

The kids are doing well and Piper is making lots of progress in her speech. She is uttering some 2 word phrases from time to time and getting more consistant with the single words that she uses. Woohoo! Allissa is making some good progress with her speech as well. Not sure if it has much to do with her teacher or not, but I am happy for any progress on that front. I will be doing the early registration for 4-K for Allissa in a couple of weeks, and I am excited about that. I think that she will benefit greatly from being around other kids her age, and I think that ultimately it will help her clarity in talking. Might help her with making her "F" sounds as well.

I think that is about it from our world for now. :)
