food, crochet, merriment
Our lovely little Crochet Nativity adventure began last year. The very next thing that happened after that sweet baby arrived in the manger–was those lovely little shepherds showed up.
But my poor daughter April had to wait a whole YEAR to get these little guys to come around. A few pieces each year, for her next birthday is about as good as I can do.
Totally worth the wait—wouldn’t you say?
The basic Nativity pattern is found HERE. Of course, I mess around with it in my own way. Heh, heh.
When you have an over abundance of pie…
it only makes sense…
that you should be happy…
and grateful to share.
Easy to do, when the pixies are loose.
This, my dears is our newest little sweetheart–Merrick. He’s the happiest little soul that you’ve ever seen and OH, so much fun to snuggle and kiss.
 Do you just adore the matching ties for church?
He is the son of Dane & Kortney and the dearest little grand-baby imaginable.
So glad they are close by so they can share all this happiness with us.
I wake up most mornings to this silly thing crying to be let out to the room at the top of the stairs. It’s where her own personal spot of sunshine hits and she lays there basking until every scrap of it is gone. On overcast days–when there is no sunlight whatsoever, Jiff will act mad at me for hours. Â Like I’m in charge of the sun, and just not letting her have it, or something.
Maybe I need to get her a heat lamp and totally be the Goddess of all warmth and light.
I could live with that.
April and Jacob will be coming back tonight.
At last–at last!
This baby girl sure does miss her Mommy & Daddy.
Bless her sweet heart.
