Flexibility

Erg...

My sister Jaime is 7 months pregnant right now, and I think I am experiencing sympathy acid reflux for her right now. Tums has become my constant companion...

I tried looking around for some Project Spectrum-inspired photos and found I had to engineer one. It's easy to dress Willow in red and pink - she's a nearly-four-year-old girl and those two colours make up about 65% of her wardrobe. I wore pink myself on Sunday, and wrapped my pink/coral scarf around us:



This was the good picture - you should have seen the one before it where Willow wouldn't look at the camera and I was glaring in frustration!

I was telling Willow that when she was little she used to always put her feet in her mouth and suck on her toes... and she promptly showed me she was still able to do that:



Oh, to be that flexible!

I'm sneakily planning my April Project Spectrum project - it will be something for my abovementioned sister's new baby. I don't want to take a picture of the project until it is done - so that may mean a lot of filler pictures in the meantime. It's okay - spring is nearly here and the flowers are gorgeous here when they all come out.

Day 13: There are 90 different sleep disorders, and insomnia is only one of them.

Yeah... I think I have experienced a half dozen or so...

I can remember when you used to suck your toes too! Like grandma[I remember when my mother saw you sucking your toes - she told me that I used to suck my toes also], like mother, like daughter. Love & Hugs

At least you can have tums, i can have 3 in a 24 hour period. I remember sucking my toes, and if I wasn't 7 months pregnant I'm sure I still could do it. Jaimes

I got it! IGOTITIGOTITIGOTIT! Jo, you absolutely ROCK! The Knitpicks Shadow? Bought 2 hanks in the same color today for an Adamas Shawl. I didn't know if 2 would be enough, I guessed, now I know I'm safe! How in the holy hell did you know? Wow. I'm impressed. I could go on, but I did, extensively, just now, on the bloggy thing.

Aleksia loved the picture of Willow sucking her toes. She laughed and said, "Funny!" Amazing how fast they grow up, eh. So, perhaps we will see you this summer?
