Cody has arrived!!!!!!

My nephew Cody Jacob has arrived! Weighing 6 pounds 15 ounces and measuring 19 1/2 inches. Congratulations to Jason and Denise!!!!!

My uncle has been taken off life support and is doing better.

In March, I finished my first pair of socks. I did them 2-at-a-time-on-1-circular. I used leftover Cotton Ease from the baby blanket. The socks took about two weeks. The directions in the book 2-At-A-Time Socks by Melissa Morgan-Oakes were wonderful. There were many illustrations that helped with each step.

Brooke decided how she wanted to pose wearing the socks. This is about the third time that she has worn the socks. I planned on making a second pair so that there would be two matching pairs, but she didn't want me to do that. She loved them the way they were, so I handed them right over. She put them on and started dancing around the kitchen.
