Knitting

2 years ago for Christmas by best friend got me knitting needles, yarn and a 'beginners' guide to knitting DVD. I wanted to take up a productive hobby. (Mostly to get my mind off of TTC....it took awhile for hubby and I to fall pregnant). I got hooked! Right away I made scarves, pot holders and then moved up to sweaters and booties. After Layla was born my projects were put on hold, but I've recently been able to start up again. yay! This was my latest project: -------->

A friend suggested that I try and sell my projects, so I went straight to my FAVORITE (babywearing) group on BC to see what they thought......and a mama was interested in me making a one for her. :) I was so FLATTERED! :) I'm off to the yarn store tomorrow to get more yarn......pictures soon to come!

My new baby carrier = true love

My custom Wrapstar Mei Tai, arrived yesterday and I officially have the greatest baby carrier of all time. I. LOVE. IT.
It is seriously the most comfortable, supportive and 'hardy' carrier I now own. Erin (the very talented creator) does amazing work and I already want a wrap conversion from her. *Sigh-with hearts in my eyes gazing off into the distance.* Oh, and Layla seems to love it too.

Speaking of.....little Magoo is now interested in some solid foods. She likes the muffins from work, little Organic baby puff cereal, avocado, and oatmeal. She'll eat a little banana every once and awhile. She still is not crawling. I really don't think that she will. She has absolutely no interest, and she's totally content to roll where ever she wants. I bet she will just go straight to walking at like 15 months. .... that's my newest prediction. She does although have a few new tricks in her rotation. Besides 'wiggle', 'bub-bye', and 'clapping' she does ' so big!', 'knuckle sandwich' (thanks auntie lol), 'say mama' = then she'll say dada, 'hello', 'play music' singing toys on her bouncer, and 'bounce'. It's so fun teaching her new things. She's like a little spounge!
