The Smidget

Three days after my last post, my doctor sent me to the hospital and a couple days later we had a new arrival in the family. The last four weeks have been completely absorbed with spending time with my little one. I've actually started this post several times and each time been pulled away to tend to the kiddo or see to some other critical task.

We've nicknamed him Smidget and he is about as good natured of a baby as I could have asked for.


As you can imagine, there isn't much time for crafting anything. There are several projects in my sewing room that I owe other people and I just haven't had a block of time to settle in and work on them. Most of what I've done, I've squeezed in while snuggling Smidget in-between feedings. Over the past month, its made for a fair amount of progress. Its much easier to pick up and put down a crochet project, so that is where the bulk of my spare minutes have been spent.

 The occasional Smidget nap that I am not also napping for has seen a little progress on my Tiger cross stitch. I've mostly filled in the nose and mouth.

My mom has sent another blanket for Smidget! Jack's favorite super hero is Captain America and we were both tickled about this blanket and hat.


I don't know when the next update will be, but I hope you have all had a wonderful month - I know I have!
