There are reasons

There are reasons I have posted much lately. This is ostensibly a knitting blog, yet there has been very little of that going on. Plus, M. had her first ear infection and I got sick and anyway, there you have it. She recovered quickly, I think I am getting sick again.

So, knitting. I've made some progress on my dad's sweater, and I will actually be going to knitting at Wool and Company this Friday because D.'s mom is going to come watch M. There might be visible progress for me to show you.

In M. news, she has cut some of her sixth tooth, and it's a molar. She going completely out of order, but she likes to do things her way. She also walked up a step for the first time a couple weeks ago. It was shallow, so that made it easier. She likes to walk around like Godzilla; I think she's practicing for steps on flat ground. First haircut was Sunday. Looks a bit less like a ragamuffin. She sat pretty still for it. My mom asked if I had cut it. Hahhahahaha. No.

She likes her hard hat.

Pre-haircut, notice the wisps at the ears.

Post-haircut. Shorter wisps.

Strange child

Today, M. actually took two naps. She was tired enough after our trip to Trader Joe's to go down again, she just wasn't quite aware how tired she was, I think. She sat in her crib for a while sucking her thumb and cuddling her bear, and when she fell asleep, she just leaned forward. It didn't look comfy at all, but I don't disturb sleeping babies.

Happy Birthday!!!

If she looks serious, it's because she's wishing her daddy a seriously happy birthday :)
