Accomplishment

I am currently typing this in my bathtub with my computer sitting on the ledge.

Weird? Not really.
Unsafe? Completely.

I finished the last of my dishclothes the other day and gave them to Amy this afternoon. It's my last day off this week and I wanted her to get them before she had the baby (she's been having contractions). I drug Jeremiah along with me. As much as he denies it, he loves my nephew Charlie (the current baby). So, I thought I'd get to spend a little quality time with him while he got what he wanted at the same time. Win-win situation.

Anyway. Here is the finished product:

All 8 of my pride and joy's :]

(sorry for the side view. Jeremiah took these)
Binky and a Stroller

Hand print and Moon w/ Stars

Rattle and Saftey Pin

Bottle and Baby Feet



Jeremiah picked out the ribbon :] so proud.

                                           My favorite color is brown.. I had to.

I am so proud of myself for getting these done. It's not that difficult to learn how to knit and once I got started I couldn't stop. I'm now trying to learn how to make my own creations which is basically learning how to use and Excel Spread Sheet and getting started.

Also, I do NOT take ANY credit for creating these dishclothes. I got these from the amazing KrisKnits . She hasn't been using her blog as much, which is perfectly ok because life gets in the way of some things. I completely understand and, although I miss her knitting projects (her blog is what I aspire to be), I CANNOT wait for her return. I paid for these dishclothes and I WILL NOT be distributing them. They belong to Kris, I'm just glad she shared them with the public.

My sister loved these dishclothes that she didn't even want to use them. Her exact words: "Oh, Breanna, these are so cute I just want to hang them up!" I love my sister and her family. I cannot wait for her latest addition to join the world. Only 8 more days!!

And YES, expect a blog post :)


xoxo,
Bre

I Thought I'd Post

... considering the fact that I have been moved out of my apartment for about 3 weeks now. I would be VERY shocked if you couldn't guess what I've been doing with my spare time...

1. Knitting (My unnamed nephew is due on May 29th. I'm almost done with my 2nd to last dishcloth for his amazing mama)





2. Drinking Coffee. (Is this really something I have to say that I've been doing?!?)



3. Slowly (but surely) unpacking.


[No picture, I'm sure you don't want to see full-ish boxes...]



Work is getting a little easier. My boss says that I should be able to move up in about 3 months or so which is great. I'm not too concerned since my job isn't that bad anyway.

Jeremiah is already on his way and I'm happy for him! It would have been pretty surprising if I got a promotion before he did considering my job title is Technical Support and he has more experience than I do.

Delano is being Delano. I've been trying to teach him out to shake and he just doesn't get it. It's kinda sad because I think he's such a goofball. He does stupid things all the time. I guess that's all part of being a puppy.


PUPPY KISSES!
