I just finished this hat and left it with Chrissy today. It's the pumpkin hat from Itty Bitty Hats and it was really fun. I did the 6 month size, so it should be just right for Chrissy to wear in October and November.

This is Chrissy, as if yesterday. At one month, she has gained almost 2 pounds. She will find out on Tuesday when she goes for her next pediatrician check-up. She's such a sweet baby.



Update, 8/28/07 Chrissy now weighs 10 pounds 9 ounces, and is 22inches long. She is 5 weeks old today!!!!!! Wow, she's really growing!!

Yippie!!!!!!!!!!!

I just got my invitation to Ravelry! What fun! What a lot of work!!!! Oh, well, with this blog and Ravelry, I'll really keep myself busy. The only problem is that I want to read, too. With working full time, and all of this, I'll never have enough time for it all, darn it!

Chrissy and family are doing fine. I miss that tiny baby, so much!

;-)

Here she is again! Miss Chrissy!!!!!

We spent another week with our darling Chrissy. What fun! She is growing and changing every day. It was hard to come home, but we needed to, so I could go back to work. We'll see her soon, I'm sure, but I can hardly wait! This picture has her wearing a frog rattle from her Great Aunt Lorey. (my "big" sis!) It's still too big for her wrist, so her ankle is perfect.

Ths is one of the bibs I knit for her. Still a bit big, but very soft and functional. This is me holding her, too, but she is more important, so the picture concentrates on her, of course.

This is why I haven't posted for a while! She is the most wonderful, beautiful little baby girl in the world! I'm not prejudiced at all! LOL! Born on 7/24/07, 8 pounds 5 ounces, 20 inches. Blonde hair with blue (at the moment) eyes. Our daughter had a c-section at 39 weeks and they are both doing wonderfully! They don't live where my DH and I do, but we were there and got home today for about 4 days. We will return to our girls on Sunday to help for one more week, since Chrissy's daddy has to go back to work on Monday and Mommy won't be driving or doing stairs, just yet. We are truly in love with our first grandbaby!
