Hey there!

So I haven't posted in a long time...again. I've had so many posts rambling through my head, but just haven't had time or energy to put thought to blog.

I can't believe Aedan is 4 months old already!! And Trip & Jack will be three in just a few short months. Where has the time gone??? Aedan is longer than the boys were at his age, but he's thin like they were. He has the cutest chunky looks, but he's only around the 5th percentile for weight. He's working on a few teeth, but isn't as fussy as the boys were and they weren't as fussy as most teething babies get. I'm very blessed.

The big boys are getting bigger and more toddler-ish. Almost 3 is not my favorite age, so far. The boys are super smart, but maybe too smart for their own good. Some days they're like two monkeys sans cage. We're potty training right now, which is going fairly decent. We haven't really worked on keeping up with it when we leave the house, though. They also adore their littlest brother, but the jealousy is finally starting to show up. Trip has started to get beyond clingy. Every day is definitely busy in my house...especially since I have a power napping infant and two non-napping toddlers. Someone pass the coffee!

So I'm getting back into crocheting. I've also taught myself to knit. :) I had a knitting lesson to learn how to do cables & how to fix stitches a few rows back. It was so much fun! I'm also going to try and re-open my etsy shop. I'm excited, but not extremely confident, yet. Do I really have the time for this? I'd like to make the time. Crafting helps relax me (when I'm not interrupted a million times in one minute) and the income would be nice. Extra pocket money is always nice!

I'm also going to do a CAL (crochet-a-long)! If you'd like to play along, head on over to The Oxford Family and check it out!!! It's an adult sized granny square blanket!! Yay!!! I'm going to try to step out of my safe zone and get bold with the colors. I'd like to say I'm making this for my mom or something, but I'm going to keep this for myself. it would be nice to have something handmade on the couch a la Attic24.

So what's new with you!
