20 Days Left

I feel as if I'll never finish. Anything. Before the time comes to put it all away an care an devote all my time to my 13 month old and my newborn. Vics home now helping me with the baby because i cant even move im so huge. The only thing i can do is knit <3 So im happy that I get to interact with my family an never get up from the couch an just knit for hours... watching finding nemo for the hundredth time.

Jacket With Seed Stitch Bands

It needed a flower. I combed the internet looking for one that would complement the sweater. I think i found it. Im going to start another project today.. just not sure which one. Time to hit the books.

Theres Never Enough Time

11:00pm, I should be sleeping. My son is sleeping, my daughter is bouncing around in her cushy lil home that is my belly. I cant sleep. I want to knit but then ill never get to sleep... it will be 4 in the morning by the time I put it down. I have so many WIPs at the moment I dont know where to start, I dont know what to pick up, an im afraid ill never finish any of them. At least before she arrives in Oct.

Maybe I should try to lie down for a while. Tomorrows another day for playing with my son, and knitting on the couch for my supposed "bed rest" Goodnight.

Finally A FO! Im so excited about it even though its been done for over a week. I have to put it on him an take some photos. I loved knitting every stitch of this sweater. I hope he likes it. Im not so sure about the buttons. I wanted real wooden ones but being on bed rest I cant just jump up to the craft store whenever I feel like it.

I knit it in the 12-18 month size. It fits him perfectly now but im worried he'll out-grow it before it even gets cold. Supposed to be 80 degrees tomorrow with rain in the afternoon.
