Honey Buns and Peter Pan



True love: Amelia and Honey Buns


And the winner is…

My cute 2 year-old

On the way home from Grammy's

The offspring of yuppie's: toddler playing games on the iphone!

Well, we are finally not sick! But busy as usual around here. We hamster-sat for the neighbors and Amelia fell head-over-heels. Keith actually had to put two padlocks on the cage because she couldn't put him down. There is such a thing as too much love…

The girls also had a nice overnight with Grammy (a nice break for Mommy and Daddy!) It went so well, they stayed another night and Grammy thoroughly wore them out (see above). It was a good aversion (being around Abby and Grammy) after the HoneyBuns visit!

I've been working at Churchmouse regularly now (Mondays while the girls are in school) and it's been a nice aversion for me (from the mundane)! I'm once again knitting up a storm; doing lots of samples for the store, and feeling more like a "mouse" again. To be a part of the "Mouse" club I decided to knit the Elizabeth Zimmerman fair isle yoke sweater with all the rest of the staff for the display and contest. It's so cool to see all the different color palettes that every one uses. They are all very unique and beautiful. There was a people's choice award (they vote on their fav) and guess who won! Yes, it's true! Somehow, mine got the most votes (well, I know that one of the votes was mom!) The prize was a $50 gift certificate for Churchmouse, but because I'm on staff, we donated it to the helpline house.

Well, we are gearing up for Amelia's 5th birthday next week. I can't believe my baby is going to be 5!! And on that note, Simone is at the PEAK of cuteness!! I just can't get enough of her. I wish I could bottle her little voice! I've posted two video that give a little glimpse of her. She is completely obsessed with princesses and Peter Pan (we took them to see a high school production a few weeks ago). She changes her name daily – rarely answers to "Simone." We have to call her Peter Pan, Sleeping Beauty, Prince Philip, or Cheese (the mouse from the Tinkerbell movie). She has such a great imagination and spends countless hours playing with her little princesses and polly pockets and Barbies.

  1. Both the girls are as cute as can be. I'm happy I can be a part of their lives and that we get to spend special times together. BTW, you totally deserved winning the knitting contest.
