Knittin' on a roll.....



Ok, I've got to say that for an advanced beginner knitter, I'm moving along quite nicely. I finished two projects this weekend! I'm pretty sure I won't have another day like that anytime soon. I've also figured something else out. I've always known that I need to replace my evening eating habit with something else. (This is what Dr. Phil says!) KNITTING! Yes, not only does it produce moderately cute garments and gifts, it makes me not eat!!! What could be better than that! Ok, more on these later, da girlie needs me! :)

Ok, here we go. I'm not sure where I'm going with this blog but I'm hoping to be able to share some of my thoughts and perhaps insight into the world and what's going on around us. Goodness knows that I have many things to say sometimes, and working at a church, I am unable to share them. I want to talk about the crazy and stupid things that happen at work, the funny things my girlie does and just have a space to come to that's mine. First off, I'll introduce you to my girl.

We call her Roo. She is crazy and we love her to death. The name Roo comes from her first babysitter and my best friend, who tagged her as "Kenzie-Roo" like kangaroo...get it? hahaha....anyhoo... it just stuck. She's 3 years old and a go-er. She's just been potty trained and is doing quite a good job! I decided that to celebrate her finally being potty trained (one day - diapers, next day - panties) that we'd have a panty party!! Yes, a panty party.

I told her that when she went a full day in panties (except for nap time) that she would be able to have a panty party. At the time, I had no idea what that would be but I ran with it. Well, she was beside herself with excitement. "Can Erin and Erica come over????!" she asked me. "Of course!" I replied. So...day 1. Panties all day. YAY! So, I improvised. I went shopping for panties for 3 little girlies....and that Saturday we had a panty party. The girls came in and they put their new panties over the ones they were wearing and ran around in their tshirts and underwear. It was hilarious. We watched a movie, had hot dogs and cake and I even made up a song. You couldn't pay me enough to post it on here.....lol. It was fun...and, no, the two moms did not partake in the panty party, other than the food.
