october one

Last night I crashed on the couch as soon as I was done blogging. I was out cold by 9:45 pm with Mack in my arms. Jamie came up around midnight last night from playing video games (since he didn't have to go into work today) and woke me to put Mackie in his crib and myself to bed. This morning..... Mack woke up at 4:50 am because he went to bed too early, and I've been up since. I got a good night's rest from 9:45 pm until 4:50 am. That's a full night's sleep right there! I couldn't go back to sleep even though Mack did... so I started doing work really early in the morning. (And now, I'm beat... this evening!)

I forgot I had Aqua Strollers this morning, and I'm kinda upset I couldn't go. Sean stayed home from daycare again today as we had a lunch at Jamie's cousin's house for the Jewish New Year. Sean was shy again at first today, but because there wasn't so many people as there were the past 2 nights, he was a bit better and the crying only lasted 5 minutes instead of 30 minutes as it did the past 2 nights.

Mack was all ready to go today.
Can you tell we're huge Habs fans?

I got Mackie the other day the most cutest sweatshirt (zip down). Fits him perfectly. I got it in 3 mos size (which he's wearing now) and in 6 mos size. I have the wrong season of clothing for 6 mos size, since Sean was 6 mos old in summer and Mack will be 6 mos old in the dead of winter.

Today's earrings. I'm having fun with this!

Ah.... I'm insane. Mom of 2 under 2 and I'm taking on the world. Lovely, eh?

I got my Debbie Bliss Magazine in the mail today. I love it. Found a few projects I want to make already. I've already got Sophia on needles (from the Rialto book) (must get back to that eventually), loving the Cabled Tank, I heart Isabella, amongst other projects.

I've been working on compiling my information for the Ravelry Fave Things Swap & the Single Sock Swap as well. I'm going to make sure pals get out by the weekend. Please be patient if you're waiting on your pal. I have another idea for another swap in my head, but that won't be for a while, must get these 2 swaps underway first!

I've also been working on the Montreal Knitting Guild newsletter, which I will have done by tomorrow so it can be emailed to members and mailed out to those without internet before the next meeting in October.

Alright. I'm enjoying some Beaujolais (my fave bottle of red) and kitchener stitching the toe on the October Sock Club pattern. I can't wait to photograph it tomorrow, it's looking smokin' hot! The November kit is now in full swing being sold.... get yours here....
