Cranky Inspired Shorts

I have been obsessed with Crankypants for a while. They are adorable, but since I knit I couldn't justify buying them. Besides the fact that Bry might have a fit if I spent that much money on a pair of custom pants for Liam.

Here is the Crankypants website. Her stuff is amazing! http://crankypantsknits.blogspot.com/

Here is my version. They are supposed to be shorts, but I made them a bit too long. Maybe they will still fit next year. They were really fun to knit up.

Computing and Swim Class.... only belong together in a blog post.

Liam is constantly trying to get his sticky little fingers on my computer. If you have ever seen my screen, you know that he frequently succeeds. Here he is checking his email in his underwear.....



Bryan has been taking Liam to swim classes at the local YMCA for the past couple of months. He had his last class on Saturday. He did really well, but lost steam about 15 minutes into class. We are going to try again in the spring. Here are some photos of his best moves......

Mikey-bone

Liam was watching American Idol with me yesterday and asked me for the mikey-bone (microphone). He likes to sing into a microphone that came with Bryan's rock band game. It is really cute. He is starting to sing along to songs now. It is the best part of riding in the car with him.

Here are a few pictures from today.

New Tote Bag

I love Amy Butler fabric, so I decided I needed to make myself a bag out of some. I never make anything for myself, so I really enjoyed doing this. It is a reversible bag and I used craft bond to make it more sturdy. There is also a layer of heavy interfacing on the bottom so it isn't flimsy. There are six pockets on the inside. I love how it came out.
