apple hat for miss a




these pictures are a little old, but i thought i'd share them anyway because they show off miss a in her cute little "apple" hat, which is really more tomatoe-ish, but apple seems much more fitting for the season. posting these is a great motivator for me to cast on for another hat for aubrey...this is the only hat that fits her right now (she has a gi-normous noggin'...95th percentile, in fact) and the cold weather is rapidly approaching.
i have been so busy with the new job, pete travelling, and so forth that i haven't had much time to write. things are good, though. aubrey is continuing to expand her vocabulary...her latest challenge is learning to say all of her classmate's names. (she says "ah-eeey" for aggie; "yeeeed" for reed; "bom" for tom; and "jayjay" for a.j. everyone else is a bit hard to discern at the moment, but she's getting there!)
i am FINALLY back in a running routine (i run from my office to pete's, about 3.3 miles, 3 times a week) which is great. before i got pregnant and gave birth to boopers i was in excellent shape. since then...well...it's been a struggle to find the time to get back into it regularly. for the moment i seem to have found a nice groove and i am loving it. running, for me, is a really good stress buster, and boy do i need some stress relief these days!
also, i have been knitting like a madwoman, since everyone keeps having babies. (i made miss a the cutest little socks the other day...socks and mittens are my new favorite little people project.)
i will try to be a bit more regular about posting. promise!
