Burp Cloths, A Busy Week, and Bye, Bye Monkey

August 28th, 2007

This morning I finished crocheting my 9th burp cloth for Baby Boy #3. I made them each differently, so no two of them are the same. I’m happy to have them done… I organized a drawer in the nightstand in the nursery with all the little burp cloths, including several that I have left over from when Sammy was a baby. I’m excited for this baby to come!

This drawer is ready to go!

Here’s what they look like!

In other news, we had company all last week. We didn’t get a ton of pictures from all our fun-filled adventures (woops!), but here are a few:

While Joanna and I were busy at home taking care of boys and going on shopping trips, the boys were out exploring the Cascades!

Sammy, as always, was busy being cute

Bill and Joanna were busy enjoying their vacation

Patrick was always busy doing some sort of activity, which prevented him (at least in his mind) from having any time to take a cute picture with his brother in their matching outfits, even though Mommy thought there were several choice moments to take that previously mentioned picture.

And, most sadly, we lost Ooh Hoo, Patrick’s beloved stuffed monkey, on a trip to the park. We had allowed little Sammy to play with him in the stroller as we went on our walk, and somewhere along the way he was dropped. He was probably picked up by some little boy or girl, and hopefully will be much loved in his new home.

Ironically, the only pictures that we have of Ooh Hoo are with Sammy, the day before he went on to a (hopefully) better place. We all miss you, Ooh Hoo.

    A Lefty! Well, I happen to know for a fact that lefty’s are really great people. Poor Sammy without his monkey. We just bought Bailey (the dog) a smaller version of that today at Target in the $1 section. He loves it although we keep making it bark at him like a real dog so he gets confused. (yeah, we need kids). I love your new ticker, it’s super cute! Way to go on the burp cloths, I salute your creativity!
