Two nights ago I dreamt I was pregnant. Like 8 months pregnant. This is funny now because I am SO not pregnant. In the dream I was freaked out because I didn’t remember getting pregnant and I was a bit scared and nervous. Luckily, in real life, I am not the one who had a baby.
Meet my new nephew, Ryan:
He is wearing the oh-so-soft green angora booties his favorite Auntie (me) made for him and he is holding Bubby made for him by my talented but without blog sister Kara. He is about 2 weeks old now and is so small and sweet and smells good. It is hard to imagine him growing up. Life is a beautiful thing.
On to my knitting. I have been in a bit of a slump. I don’t know if it is busyness or laziness but I haven’t gotten a whole lot done. A couple nights ago I decided to check out a bunch of blogs online and all of a sudden I was excited to knit again. Just like that. It is amazing how inspiring the knit blogging community is. So I casted on for Paula sleeve #1 and I am almost done with that. With the holiday I am going to try and get this sweater done.
I am looking forward to Thanksgiving. My sisters and I are dining out. Should be fun and very stress free although I think to some degree I will miss a big family thanksgiving. Mainly I will miss my Mom and Dad, especially when I have to pay for dinner (he he, just kidding Dad.) I am really just excited to be with family and not have to be at work for an extended period of time. I love the holidays. Perhaps on Friday I will start decorating. So so fun.
I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. I can tell you one thing I am thankful for.

Awww – he’s gorgeous – and the booties look fab too. (And isn’t he a clever boy, clutching onto his bubby already – well done Ryan.)
He is so sweet! Baby booties alone are enough to make me baby hungry, and yours look great! Congrats to the mom!
I really like those fuzzy booties! They are adorable. I’m sure that Bubby will be loved, too.
Happy Knitting!
Okay…okay…maybe I’m finally ready to take up this knitting thing…if it can spontaneously create a cute little bundle like Ryan.
Well done, Aunt Erin. Well done.
The booties are precious, but not quite as precious as your nephew. Welcome to Ewetahknits!
