Gabriel's getting to be a big boy now. He loves to play with his feet and is really relaxed. Every time Dean comes home he just about explodes into a mess of smiles and squeals. Claudia is my little dictator of sewing. She keeps me busy picking fabrics and almost always wants a dress. Nadine's doing really well since the ballet recital fiasco. She's doing really well with potty learning and is having fewer GI issues as a whole, so we're trying to encourage that without being too hard on her because goodness knows she's hard enough on herself when she's not perfect.
So for those of you wondering what's new with me, I'm learning to knit because wool is a more breathable option for diaper covers and I can't afford to buy the wool I want. This is my first pair, and there are some errors but they are functional so I am not worried about it. The next pair will be better. Right now I'm knitting up a spa set with all sorts of nice bath goodies in it. It's a good break from knitting pants with the heavy wool. After I finish this project, I'll make Gabriel a pair of pants and then start the sweater for me. I have some good patterns for knit dresses for the girls, but I have a mountain of fabric to sew through before I can even think about that. :-)
