So exciting!

I received the first pair of Mitts For Mary yesterday!

Are you excited, too?

This is so cool. I was going to attach a piece of paper to each pair with the name of the knitter on it, to make it more personal for her. I’m so happy Danielle did it herself! How neat!

I can’t wait to see more of your mitts. Does anyone have anything to show?

I have a headache. Clark is still not sleeping well. He may be growing again, because he can’t seem to make it through the night without a bottle right now. Or two. It’s not looking good for a spinning all-nighter. I’m not going to have the energy!

Oh, and on that topic, my wheel departed Greensboro, NC at 8:44 this morning. But we’re not anxious.

Veronica had a very nice birthday yesterday.

She made her cake herself. Cracked the eggs and everything. And emptied two of the three bottles of sprinkles I gave her to use. She chose the “6” candle, instead of six candles, so Nate lit it for her to blow out 6 times.

    Oh, lighting the candle six times, that’s so cute! She looks like she had a lot of fun with that cake too.

    Sorry to hear that Clark isn’t sleeping through the night/you aren’t either. I hope that gets better soon.

    Happy Birthday, Veronica!

    She did a great job on the cake! And on the flip side of Clark’s growth spurt. In a week or so he’ll be sleeping nonstop!! Alteast that’s what all my kids did. No sleep for a week or so and then they would sleep like a brick for a week or so. So maybe there is hope :o)

    I have my mitts done for Mary. Did you want me to just mail them? Email me and let me know!!I know you are crazy busy too…so perhaps that would be easiest.

    You have such beautiful children! And making the cake herself…how impressive!!!

    Ooh, that is exciting! I’ll give you the mitts I made when I see you on Thursday! Wow, this is a crazy birthday time of year for your family! Happy birthday to Veronica, and congrats to Olivia on getting her ears pierced – so brave! I’m not sure what I’m going to do with Evelyn – most of my friends who have girls have got their ears pierced as babies. Both my mum and I have metal allergies, so don’t think that’s such a good idea…
