We Have a Computer Again!

Its hard to believe how are lives are sometimes so dependent on technology. I have really felt out of touch with my family this whole week while we waited for our new computer to come. Its like a blessing and a curse, a blessing because it allows me to keep in contact with family who are far away from me and a curse because I sometimes waste time doing nothing of value on it. That said I'd like to catch up on a few things that happened last week.

On Tuesday Ashton and I made cupcakes. Cherry chip cupcakes to be exact. He took his job of licking the bowl very seriously. At one point he had his head completely in the bowl, he got batter all over his hair, so he had to get in the bath to wash it out.

Here he is waiting patiently for the cupcakes to come out of the oven.

Later in the week on Friday we went to the mall to play at the tree house. There were a lot of kids there. We stopped by the scrapbook store before coming home. We found Scooby-Doo stickers 75% off, wow! Then we picked a page of paper that we liked and some cool frog brads too. To finish off this artistic wonder he put his own thumbprints all around (some of them got on Aunt Dani's counter too). He thought it was funny to wear the crocheted ball bag on his head, like Santa he said.


On Thursday I finished another project, hooray. I had wanted this sweater to be a present for Heather for Christmas, but I didn't have time. I had to make the sleeve three times to get two that matched. What a relief to finally complete it. I hope that it will be the first of many that I create.


Yesterday I started my next big project. KCK One diapers for my sister-in-law Holly. Her baby will be born in 4 1/2 weeks so I really need to bust a move on this project. I practiced the welt pocket that goes in the front of the diaper so that the lining can go in, I feel pretty good about it so I began the task of cutting out all of the diaper outers. I hope that later today I can get the inners cut out. I'll have to let you know how it goes.

Yay, I'm so excited!
You don't have to hurry quite so fast though, they are probably going to be a little big for him right off so we were going to use about 2 packages of regular diapers for him in the very beginning.
I can't wait to see them! Thanks so much for making them for me!

Oh, and don't stress about the welt pocket. It doesn't have to be perfect, just functional.
