The Pink Set

I am back at the library and this time I remembered the picture of the pink set that Sandie knit for little one. I just couldn't stand the fact that I forgot it.

More for the Little One

I am the slowest blogger ever. I know it as well. But I think I have a good excuse really, at least for now. To let the gifts that Little One has recieved go one more day without posting would just be bad form on my part. So I have dragged my pregnant self to the library (since moving, I do not have internet at home) with my pictures saved on a flash disk. I also need to catch up on emails, like always. The lack of internet at home also means that I am without my cool spell check thing as well. Just ignore the spelling errors.

First of all, from Sandie, there are three lovely bibs and two knit sweater sets. The pink set is very girly and my little girl needs some girliness in her wardrobe. The white set is ssoo soft and shiny, I get it out just to pet it sometimes. (There are pictures of the pink set, they just didn't make it on to the disk last night. I'm pregnant??? That is my excuse for my complete stupidity right now. One of these years I will get a few brain cells back, hopefully.)

My BFF Davi, also sent Little One some cool things as well. There is a diaper bag plus two Playtex on the go bags. So I can carry bottles around with me and keep them cool. Stone Temple Pilot oneies, a purple elephant rattle toy, some pacifiers, and butt paste. Butt Paste is very important if you have a little one in diapers.

I LOVE the Stone Temple Pilot oneies Davi made for Little One. I looked for diapers bags around here and could not find one that I liked, was big enough, or in my price range. So Davi bought this one for me and I think it is the best ever. It has a clear plastic pouch for any wet stuff. And there are like a dozen pockets on the inside. Davi knows my need for pockets.

And there is actual knitting taking place around here as well. Not much, but a little. Using the Easter Peeps pattern and the Elefante pattern. My sister gave me some Brown Sheep's Company Worsted in yellow that I used for the Easter peep. I could not justify buying a whole thing of orange yarn just for a beak. For the Elefante, I used the March Socks that Rock club yarn held double through out. Let's hope Little One likes them. Now back to my regular assignment writing for school.

May Self Portrait-Fresh

Teaching is always interesting, no matter what happens during the day. These pictures were taken on a good day about a year and a half ago. My class had been amazing that day and told them they could use the writing box as a reward. It was nothing more than a box with leftover paper, envelopes, stickers, and colored pens and pencils. The kids thought it was funny to cover me in stickers. I didn't even notice until several hours after I got home and it was pointed out to me that I had stickers on my arms.

Fresh Self Portrait

I moved to a new apartment a couple of weeks ago. It is nothing more than a studio apartment, but it is the breath of fresh air that I need. I feel like I have space and the freedom to do things the way I like them. Plus for those of you keep track of the belly shots, these were taken at 33 weeks and 3 days. (Just for the record, I totally feel like I DO NOT have enough time to get everything done.)
