Casting On

Having now done this twice there seems to be a pattern: extreme nesting from about 3 months pregnant to delivery.  Then the day after the baby is born all unfinished projects just lie there day after day.
Somewhere around 7-8 months the urge to complete them miraculously comes over me.  So here is not-so-little Caleb in a new hat for winter (which may come someday) and I'm also finishing up a few sweaters and staring some socks.

Celebration for Grammie

Instead of a sign welcoming Grammie, Jonas wanted to make a "celebration" for her upcoming visit.  He worked on it for 2 days including table settings, multiple courses and special linens.  This pot is cranberry spinach.  Grammie bonded with her boys and prior to leaving she created a delicious (and real) pot of beef barley soup for her peepies.

Caleb on the Move

In the last few weeks Caleb went from scooching a few inches to fully crawling: the style that involves mostly arms and dragging of the legs, a.k.a. comando crawl.  He can now cross a room to pull over his toy bin and climb inside or treat the coffee table like an obstacle course.

Boo... Happy Halloween

Katy and Jason brought their pupkin (Julien) to join the

halloween festivities.

Caleb was Max from Where the Wild Things Are.  I think it was over most peoples' heads and he looked more like a baby king.

Jonas as a shark- the red lollipop created a nice effect!  All of the photos can be found here.
