my weekend will be full of family
and snow and yarn.

its been a quiet few weeks here -

full of snow and knitting and snuggling.

needless to say, i'll take it. i find myself being incredibly productive in this cold weather. i bound off a little sweater dress for frances last night and immediately cast on forty stitches for a cotton leaf rag. and it won't stop there. i have plans to have at least a few inches of my cowboy cowl done by tonight and i would like to make a pattern for a little red cape for frances.

maybe by spring i will have bound my quilt.
but for now i will be knitting knitting knitting.

p.s. i updated my ravelry page.
for what its worth.

i think this weekend will be all about babes -
maybe because mine is growing so fast.
running and talking and definitely a toddler.

half the fun of being a parent is watching what kind
of a person that little being is going to be.
it wasn't so long ago that she couldn't hold her head up alone
and now she can draw and eat and comb her hair
all by herself.

1. at work, 2. daysleepers, 3. sophia., 4. in the morning, 5. Untitled, 6. A80064_5, 7. sweetest sleep, 8. the breakfast monster, 9. flour

this little family is heading out on an island adventure for the next few days.

a chance to scout stone walls
and climb gnarly trees
and hug and kiss oma.
