It might be October, but there is still beauty in our garden.

I've recently wound some some yarn into balls... so many things to knit.
Neither one of these 3 are for the same project.
I've been finding the hand winding into balls very therapeutic.
(Though I do have a ball winder & swift).

Mack's totally into posing for the camera lately. He'll ask "take picture please?" (it's so cute), but then when I get my camera, it results in him sticking out his tongue. He cracks me up.

Today’s Link Love:
- Yet another Pampers Gift to Grow Point code; 10PTSFREECODE4U
- And yet another Huggies Enjoy The Ride Rewards Code: BJQTWZMFQJWFPGB
(They've really been on the roll with free points lately!)
- This photo is really cute.
- This tea bag holder wallet tutorial is really cute. I received a tea bag wallet that holds 2 tea bags once, and I was looking to re-create it, but can't find a pattern online for two tea bags. Does anyone of any?
- Love both the photo and the fact that the flowers were crafted.
- I love this own stuffie. (Tutorial how to make one).
- Love this baby Owl Tag Baby Toy. So cute. (But of an owl kick lately).
- Love these pinwheel coasters too.
- Love that after seeing this on Etsy, (for 48$ USD), I found the FREE pattern.

Tried using a round brush to blow dry my hair tonight. Thought maybe I could try to replicate the way it looked when I got it cut at the salon. Yeah right. Not sure I understand how to coordinate my hands to use both the blow drier and the round brush at the same time. Anyone got any tips or tricks? Maybe I just need to find a video on YouTube on how to use a round brush while blow drying your hair... Hmm...

Hmmm I don't know about the hair dryer and round brush. I try to stay away from blow driers as they create lion hair for me. Good luck on finding that video!

Thanks for the Braidy Cowl free pattern link. I think that would make wonderful (and easy!) Christmas gift knitting.

Maxime has been doing the same thing lately (asking me to take a picture). I've got LOTS of photos of Monster Maxou, Zombie Maxou or Silly Maxou! lol

I'm waiting for your next ultrasound. When is it again?

I think your hair looks super cute in that picture! Is that after the round brush? I hate bad haircuts, it is the worst. I'm going through a series of repairing haircuts after a particularly bad haircut which left me with 79 layers. I HATE layers.

Hope you're feeling good! Any closer to a name for cutie pitootie number 3?

love so many of these links and shared a few on my fb as i have a bunch of crafty friends who i know will appreciate them!

as for the round brush and hair dryer awkwardness.. i know just what you mean. i had the same problem when i first started using it. no tricks, but all i can say is that it totally gets easier. just keep practicing.

That flower is absolutely gorgeous [as i told you on FB]. Love the purpleness!

How long does it take you to wind?!?!? I need more project ideas! Been at a loss lately.

Cute. I saw a tutorial once some where too for tea bags!

Your son is so cute!

Why did I not realize that Sean is almost 4? I guess I did because Mack is two but it didn't really register until just now.
