>What a great X-mas!!!!

>This year was so much fun. Our 2 yr old finally had an idea of what was going on. She kept telling us that she wanted Santa to bring her a red toy and a blue toy:). She ripped through all her presents so fast (along with everyone elses as well).

Here She is ripping through one of her gifts as happy as can be.

Here I am probably telling her to slow down just like my parents used to tell us to. It’s kind of scares me that I really do sound like my parents when I swore that that would never happen, hahahaha.
Since start up a new business and all money was rather tight this year to say the least. So I asked my husband for only one thing which was a Tom Forrester Spindle and my wish came true. I absolutely love it. I’ve never spun on a spindle so I wasn’t sure if I would like it, but it works great. I got a light weight (29 oz) to spin sock weight yarns on. I can’t wait to spin well enough to use it in a pair of socks for myself.

Here is a pic of the top view and on the right is a pic of the first spindle spun yarn ever!!! It didn’t come out to bad, but I have a long way to go before it will be consistant.

>Baby E… is here !!!!!

It seems like it has been so long since I’ve had a chance to write. A lot has happened including a new addition to the family. We had a baby girl Oct 16 at 8:13 AM. She was 20.5″ long and weighed in at 7lbs 6oz.
As for her older sister that is 2, she hasn’t been too jealous. She does the usual like get mad when the baby is on my lap or when she wants something and I can’t jump up and get it. She really does love her though. When she goes to school that is all she talks about.

This week I finally finished my felted bags. They came out so good. I lined them and put a pocket on the inside. I’m thinking of selling them, but I’m not sure if anyone would be interested in them.
