Have you seen the Knitting Stash app? It keeps track of your needles and projects so you know what you need/already have when you're at the store.

How's it going? How's Evie?

Re: Noisy

  • Ooh, I haven't! I should definitely get that, I almost bought a second set of size 7 circulars a few weeks ago by accident. 

    We're doing okay. My ILs go home tomorrow morning, then my mom and sister come Friday night. I'm looking forward to a day and a half of just us until they come, but I'm also a little nervous since Lorne has some meetings and I'll be alone with both kids for the first time tomorrow afternoon. WHAT IF I CAN'T DO IT?! I mean, I'm sure things will be fine, Evie is super mellow so far - she likes laying and kicking and eating, and she sleeps pretty well. 

    Will picked a really good time to get a cold, and as a result he's not sleeping well and has been pretty cranky the last couple days. He's also doing a little more testing of me and Lorne, seeing what he can get away with. I'm having a hard time deciding whether to be a hardass or to cut him some slack since he's sick and his world has kind of been turned upside down in the last week. He's still cracking us up though; last night he called for Lorne when he was supposed to be in bed, and was all, "Daddy, maybe I just need to touch your hair for a little bit." So Lorne let him touch his hair, and then Will said, "Daddy, that was kind of weird, wasn't it?"

    Seriously, how do you ever tell that child no? I would be in stitches.

  • Ahh. Will is awesome. Of course you can handle 2 kids on your own. Don't be ridiculous.

    I don't know if either of you are on ravelry, but there is also a place on there where you can keep track of your needles. I know that doesn't help when you're out buying needles. I wonder if Ravelry has an app but I would think that is very useful.

    11/11/11 = 5 years. Woah!
  • If you need a break send Will our way. I'd love to hear Will and Maggie have a conversation. I remember being on my own with both kids the first time. Just have yourself all set up for success (I do this every evening)snack prepared for will, cup of milk in the fridge, DVD cued up if you need it. Diapers and wipes stocked up, burp cloths, pacis. You can do it!

  • i love that he felt it was weird.
  • I'm dying! I'm sorry the hair touching didn't make him feel better, though.

    I have like 4 size H crochet hooks because I always just end up buying them rather than going home and discovering I don't have them. They're like $2, so I don't feel too bad, but still.

  • Oh Poor Will.  Evie is Beyoootifull.  I know you can handle it, you are going to be just fine!
  • It's so not fair that you get to live with Will every day.  I love it!  I'm going to start asking to touch people's hair and then declare it weird from now on.

  • I declare this my most favorite Will story. And I have a lot of favorite Will stories.
