Autumn Update

Grump no where near where I'd like to be with these. I was musing to put the border of the design on the Name square however the time it's taken me to do the amount I've done thus far I think I'll cut that lose. With that said I'm more than half way done with the lot. Perhaps *crosses finger* things will be done by the weekend... but deffinately next weekend?

A Little Progress

Baby boy is a month old! Days drag by, but weeks seem to fly by. Fussy Buttons got his first hair cut yesterday. You probably think I'm insane for cutting his lovely locks this early. But it's a Chinese thing. My mom tried to explain it to me but I still don't know why. But if Fussy Buttons is anything like his dad or me, his hair will grow back soon enough.








I worked more on my Autum Fair and Square blocks. I have the center motif done. Goal is to have the design done by this weekend. All the back stitching done the following week. And then the name block done the following. Idealy would like it all done before that, but well I'm trying to be realistic lol. Will post the progress pic here after the blocks have been recieved.

Can it be... a Post?

Little fellow is nearly a month old! Beautiful Baby boy is growing bigger by the day. He's strong and healthy. One couldn't ask for a better baby. He has his querks mind you but we all do.



It's been a week since MacMac had to go back to his duty station. He wont be back till May, so sad. Feel so sorry for him, missing out on the baby's milestones and such. sigh. It's a hard life, but its one we chose it. We are however musing at the thought of having me and the wee one visit him for the Holidays... Musing being the key word since with layovers the flight there is a stated 20 hrs. that doesn't included getting to the air port or secuirty. I'd really hate to be the lady with the screaming infant on board an air plane, but someone has to be :p



I think i put in ten mins of stitching in to Celtic Christmas while MacMac was here helping me out. I puttered about to much to be able to enjoy the breaks he was giving me to their finest.



Realizing my stitching time was going to be very tiny, I decided small little projects are my best bets. That said I never can figure out what to do with the little buggers. So I was delighted to fine the Fair and Sqaure blog. It seems to be a lovely solution to my problem. With the deadline and all it also forces me to find a moment to stitch, which also means that I'm taking a moment for myself and therefor my life isn't completely over runed by the little guy.



I'll wrap things up with a pic of the floss toss for the Autumn Exchange I'm doing:
