My knitting list just keeps getting longer!

I just found out last night, I’m going to be an Aunt!!!! My brother and his Fiance are going to have a baby!!! Due in September!!! Actually within days of our own Mother’s birthday!! What a present, being made a Grandma for the first time!!! Her family would like them to move up the wedding to this summer instead of next but if they are going to have the wedding they want, and get ready for the baby, they need to keep it as planned. And good for them for sticking to their own plan!!! Our Mom isn’t being pushy at all, though she did ask what the plan would be, nothing wrong with asking, once.

So I’ll be looking around for baby patterns and superwash yarns as I know they will use things that they are given. Guess we know what I’ll be working on most this summer!

Oh, and our neighbor across the street had her baby, another boy! I’m not sure exactly when they had him but it was recently. I’ll be working on booties and a bonnet over the weekend . . . .

And there are something like 4 more baby gifts to be made in the next few months as well. Yikes! What a total baby boom this hear!

I’m working on the sock from the funny roving I dyed and I’m about 1/2 way done with the foot. I haven’t had much knitting time the past couple of days so its slow going and runs the risk of being cast aside in favor of more baby items for a while . . . ah well.

Still lots to do at work so I’d better get to it . . . .
