Mousie's Outdoor Fun







Connor's Weird Mousie :)



After I made Mousie for Joceline's present, Connor also wanted one for himself. I started this one last night and just finished it. Connor hasn't seen it yet, hope he likes it!

At the Dinosaur Exhibit



We went to a travelling dinosaur exhibit today. Wasn't fantastic, but it was OK. The boys quite enjoyed it.

Dirty Face Connor

Pictures taken last night.

First two without flash - I like them better - but it's hard because he's not very still...







For Marraine



Can anyone guess what it will be?
This will be a present for my Great-Aunt's 90th birthday.

Blocking



The little shoulder warmer I finished last night. I really love it, it's really cute. I used a button I had at home. I like it but I'll go shopping see if I can find something even better. I want big and bold! :)

Der Räuber Hotzenplotz



Today, I went to the theater with the boys for the first time. This is what we saw. I kept it as a surprise and didn't tell the boys what we'd be doing until we got there. They were pretty excited and they really enjoyed the show. They want to go again, with Daddy too this time... :)

Here We Go Again...



I used egg colours again. As I left quite a bit of white last time, I concentrated on colouring everything thoroughly this time. Apart from that, it is still a "let's see what this looks like" attempt without much though put into it.

This is fun!

Scrubby

This is the first scrubby I've ever knit. They are so fun, I will be making many more! This one is for a present, so I'll make one for me pretty soon so I can try it out. :)

The progress of my Monkey socks. The colouring is interesting

Teeny, Tiny Spider

Spotted in the garden yesterday on a small tree branch. It must be 3-4mm in size only.





Spanking the Naughty Frog

If you read one of my old posts on this blog, you will know that Connor was afraid of the "naughty frog". Yesterday, he beat the crap out of him! LOL

A Few More from Mousie

Just because she is super cute!
Of course, now the boys want one each...









Girlfriend Present

Picture of the day for: 02.04.09



So, last night Connor came home telling me he wanted to give a present to his girlfriend from school Joceline, who was celebrating her 4th birthday that day… He said he wanted to buy her a big dinosaur, because she loves dinosaurs ;)

Then, I was flipping through a new knitting pattern book, he saw "Mousie" and said “that’s what I want to give Joceline for her birthday”. So, I went through my leftover sock yarn, found two colours that would do and started her immediately. I finished her just after midnight, in time for him to take it to her today at school. Our first girlfriend present <3
