Look at this little peep.  She truly (not because she's mine) is a beautiful baby.  She looks alot like her mom did way back when.  Getting ready for Xmas and my grandmother.  Both things are stressful for me.  Fun, but stressful.






A knitted hat with a sock monkey outfit.  Can't beat that.  I love sock monkey's.  My vintage one is stuffed with old women stockings. Poor thing has been through the ringer though.  I want to knit Addy her own.

Not to happy after naptime.... Which translates to 5 minutes by the
way....

Addy was great in Wally World. She's growing so fast. Anxious to
walk. Yaya is wishing she was stationary once again.

Knitting Goodies

Here are some very nice, cute knitting accessories. They were all found at Webs in Mass. My mom is soooo lucky that this is her local yarn store. Will definitely be going there in August.

Sophie the Giraffe

I have been looking at Sophie for awhile on Amazon.  She's a 100% natural teether from Paris, France for babies.  Low and behold I found her in a small store in Gville.  Addy seems to love her.  She squeeks like a dog toy.  A $20.00 dog toy I may add.


Toys

It really bothers me that every toy I pick up for Addy seems to be electronic.  I don't know why I am bothered so much..I am a techno geek.  I am trying to buy her some non-electronic stuff for Xmas (since I'm Santa this year while her mother is a poor student).  But I have found that the non electronic stuff, believe it or not tends to be a bit pricey.  I love Melissa and Doug things and have bought her some of that.  I mostly shopped online, but did go to the Toybox today in Gville.  It's a high end fru-fru toystore.  I loved it.  There was a big case near the register that housed these.  They are on my wish list because I love Madame Alexander dolls and I love Alice.
