Little People, Big (piles of) Knits

All around me, people are making babies.  Friends, coworkers, acquaintances, you name it.

Let it be said, I'm done with having babies.  I have two sweet daughters with the man of my dreams, and we were fortunate to have that moment of closure when we first laid eyes on our second.  We had our family.

That said, I still love babies, in a thank-God-for-vasectomies kind of way.  I am relieved that my Breedy McHumpalot friends are keeping me supplied with babies to hug and love and hand back when they cry.

And knit for.  Never forget that part.

toe-up socks in stretchy rib  

Teensy raglan and socks in Lucy Neatby Celestial Merino Dream, Sugar Maple colourway.  This has been sitting in my stash since last summer, so it was great to fish it out and fall in love with it all over again.

Teensy raglan and socks in Crystal Palace Panda Wool, Basil Curry colourway.

And as I whip off teeny knits, I have two constant reminders that I am no longer the parent of a baby.  This outtake from a recent portrait session perfectly shows the silly side of my sweet girls.

Have a great day!

Oh so sweet and cute! both the knits and your gorgeous daughters :))

My friends are going through another Breedy McHumpalot (love it!) phase too. Baby knits are everywhere. As are baby girls. YAY!

Love the photo of your girls!

Gorgeous girls!
And I"m with you. No more babies (and grateful for that) but have a list of baby knits that I need to get going on....
