march eight :: 114 weeks old

Sean is 114 weeks old today.

And as usual, he's getting harder and harder to keep still for a photograph!

This afternoon Jamie's mom & her wife came over to visit for a bit. We don't see them often, so I'm glad that they got the opportunity to see the boys. It was a short visit as this evening we headed over to my parents house for my father's birthday dinner. His actual birthday is today, so we had a dinner at my parents house. Happy Birthday dad! For the man who is impossible to shop for (buys what he wants when he wants) we got him a subscription to Popular Science magazine, since he likes that one! Seriously, we're running out of ideas!

Mack has started to take interest in Bosco, my parent's Great Dane. Bosco is really good with babies, and loves Sean, so we are starting to introduce Mack to him. Mack liked Bosco. And Bosco was really good around Mack. It's amazing the size of the dog next to an almost 9 month old baby!

I am having a Spring Cleaning/Spring Break sale and the hot sale item of the day is Zen Yarn Garden Bling Yarn! There is currently 11 colors in stock!

Now for some knitting related content - FINALLY! I introduce to you the February Sock Club pattern that I designed - called Amelah.




The yarn is handpainted by Sweet Paprika, who are locals to me. They're stuff is yummy & deliciously soft. This colorway is called Secret Garden. I just love how it knits up. I want to thank my sister Amy for test knitting this pattern for me!

I shall have more knitting related items this week.

Cute kid thing of the day: Sean calls Oranges "Ornage".... it's so cute coming out of this mouth. Ahhh... one day he'll get it right, but for now, I smile at it's cuteness!

Love the pictures of you and sean. Freaking adorable. The green yarn and sock pattern are gorgeous. Guess I should have joined the club earlier. I'm sure I won't be disappointed though :)
