This Week I Am Loving........

.......Pinterest. Oh man, of all the time sucks on the internets, it is definitely my favorite. I mean where else can you find amazing things like this:

Though I don't have much time between having a nearly 5 month old, writing a book due in 2 months, and running a full-time business, I do manage to take a couple minutes to play around on there each day. And I always manage to find something awesome when I do. I highly recommend it if you are not on there yet!

 

I've Got Glasses!

Yup. Baby hormones seem to have done my eyes in and I had to make a visit to the eye doc last month.

Pretty cute though, huh? The glasses aren't too bad either!

Meet Giles!

Yeah! I have a pattern out in the newest issue of Creative Knitting Magazine:

This is Giles the Giraffe. I finished him up the last couple weeks I was pregnant, and have been super excited about him ever since.

You can buy the mag here, or the e-version here.

Enjoy!

So, I am a little slow mentioning this I see, but I am excited to be teaching at this next summer:

Sorry to have mentioned it after the lottery is closed, but I hope some of you heard about it and got signed up already!

Remember Me?

Hey there! I'm Rebecca. I feel like after disappearing there for a bit I needed to re-introduce myself.

Man, it has just been one of those weeks. The Kid was super cranky from his shots through Sunday. Monday he was a bit less cranky and I whizzed through some book knitting, impressing even myself. Since then it has been a struggle to get anything done, and not even because of The Kid!

But, we're getting through. The weather has totally turned here and we are coming into my favorite season of the year. I love the fall color, crisp cold weather, falling leaves, pumpkin spice candles and lattes, big snuggly sweaters, crunching leaves under my feet when I walk,  and everything else fall brings. 

I am just pushing through my second book writing which has been a big struggle. I don't think it was the best idea to add on this year, but hey, I'm ambitious. Silly me, I just assumed this baby would nap more! I have been joking recently I used to work at home and now I just pretend to work at home. It's not even like The Kid is unwilling to help me out with things. Right now he is snuggled in this sling, which we both love, happily helping me type. Type one-handed, but type nonetheless. I can do just about anything one-handed, unfortunately knitting is not one of those one-handed type activities. And he's just so dang cute and fun that sometimes it is hard to focus on work and not him. Well, more than sometimes really. Good thing I love what I do or going back to work would be so incredibly hard. And it's not even like I am not getting a ton done, I just expect so much of myself and have pretty much always lived up to those expectations in the past, so it is hard for me to expect anything less from myself.

Alright, we have used up happy baby time. But I will be back up to more normal blogging this week since I really do have a bunch of fun stuff to share!

Tired Mama

The Kid had his 4 month immunizations on Wednesday and has been running a fever and sobbing since. He is finally doing better this afternoon, phew! Poor little guy, I feel so bad for him.

Now I must try and catch up for the last couple days!

 

 

Presley's 4 Month Photo

We had stuff going on all weekend so I am a little behind posting, but we managed to get Presley's 4 month photo done!

This time complete with a pug.

Oh 4 months, how I love you. It feels like we are through the tough newbie part and we are beginning to fall into more of a routine. We are getting to know The Kid better, and I think he is starting to know himself better too, which helps a lot. Life is feeling more "normal" for sure.

We got so many good pictures this month I had a hard time not posting like all of them, but I did pick these other couple which I just love.

So fun!

Sorry for the lack of posting here the last bit. I have lots of fun stuffs to share with you this week though, so hopefully The Kid will stay on his lovely 2-3 times a day napping routine and I will continue to be productive. One can only hope for a consistent baby, right?
