Another Project Completed

Today while waiting for Kelli, Anabelle and Brady to arrive I finished the poncho for our new little girl who arrives in May. Now that I have this one done....on to another project for this little sweetie. I have many things I want to make for her....and her mommy too. Diaper bag and some accessories to go along with that...more sweaters for the little sweetie...a couple quilts.....oh my..I best stop writing this and get busy! Hopefully I will be posting another completed project soon!

Cookie and Play Day

Kelli (my daughter in law) and I have started a fun "tradition" of having a "Cookie/Play Day"...we set aside a day for making "grammie cookies" for any special occasion or a holiday. We with the help of Anabelle and Brady make cut out sugar cookies. It is such fun!! I roll the dough out (after the kids have spread the flour on the cutting board of course)then they press their cookie cutters into the dough....once on the cookie sheet they put the "pretty sprinkles" on with the help of mommy. After the cookies are made (or like today...before we made the cookies) we play games. It is so much fun!! Today we played "hide and seek" (Anabelle and I had the BEST hiding place!!), after that we played Hi Ho Cherry-O and then a Dora Alaphabet game. We took time out for a snack of apples and bananas and just had the best fun and best day! We also had a phone call from Aunt "Wissa" and Anabelle and Brady had a nice chat with her....we had a busy fun day. My grandchildren are the BEST!! And they never cease to amaze me at what they have learned. And a hug and a kiss from a grandchild is by far the best thing a grandparent can receive....

The Joy of Knitting Continues...

Here is another project I found on the Lion Brand Yarn site....they have so many cute things to make in knit or crochet. Once again....I am having so much fun making things for our "soon to be" granddaughter. I had made several things for our first granddaughter....and for our grandson....it is a great joy for me to see them using grammie's blankets...my grandchildren are just a GREAT JOY to have!

The Joy of Knitting

I am having so much fun knitting for "our little princess" who will be born in May! This is actually the 2nd sweater I have knit for the baby....but the first one I have knit since we found out we are having a granddaughter. I now have another project started for her....and several more to go. And of course have been knitting in pink now too besides some other colors. I can hardly wait to see her in "grammie creations"
