I see light.

It’s kind of still dim but it’s there… the light at the end of the tunnel. 

I predicted it would take me 200 hours to completion? I’m approximately 82 hours in.  I think that my estimation was close.  I’m getting more and more excited to see it finished.  I bought a whole bunch of blocking mats and pins for the occasion.

Thanks John for giving me that little heart attack yesterday.  April Fools.  Haha… I wasn’t laughing.  (In case you haven’t read the comments, John had me believing for about 45 seconds that his mother had just given him the gown he was baptised in, that his grandmother made.  This would have meant that I was making mine for nothing.)  You’re lucky that I didn’t take my gown out of the bag and start ripping it back (I had it sitting beside me when I read your comment).  I was so upset.  I honestly almost cried.  Then he posted another comment that said “April Fools!”.  I love you, but I hate you sometimes!!!

I also have to remember to put the buttons on my Baby Surprise for the shower next weekend.  John, don’t tell Rachelle.  And, at some point, I’m going to make little Patrick that jester hat.  (It’s totally adorable.)

John, is it too “girl-y” with the tiny little bit of purple/pink?  Will you let Rachelle put this on your boy-baby?  If not, I’ll make him another, more masculine one. 

The wool I used for this little sweater is just scrumptious.  It’s called Mirasol.  (You can check it out if you click on the word.)  You can get it locally too, which is nice. 

Pray for my grandmother… she’s not doing well.  She kissed me and Jacob a lot last night when we went to see her.  She’s ready.

Oh, and I’m still obsessed with Twilight.  Maybe I’ll watch it again tonight….
