Tight Knit Mamas: July 2010
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 5, 2010. It's a playdress, it's a daydress, it's an okay-to-spit-up-on dress. I love buying playdresses for Miss L, and boy does she love wearing them. She picks out her own clothes each morning, and she always selects a playdress and leggings. What's not to love about the concept? They are comfortable, look nice and hold up to all her playing and running around. The dress in the photo above was a recent gift from her grandparents. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tight Knit Mamas: February 2010
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 26, 2010. First finished object with 3 under 3. It feels absolutely wonderful to be blogging again after a very long hiatus. Thank you to Mama V for introducing my two bundles of joy who arrived in December - Master Q and Miss V. The next night I knit two rows and I was hooked all over again, just like when we knit our first hat project with Mama N over a year ago. Knitting again has really made me feel rejuvenated. All week I couldn't wait to get back to my knitting. It was ...For Maste...

Tight Knit Mamas: September 2009
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. When only Mommy will do. Blue bunny. blue bunny! But no dice. He wanted it out of the room from the second I turned it on. So that's where we are and I have no idea how to make it better. I feel terribly guilty every time he gets upset. Is it possible that he senses all the changes coming his way in about three months? Now what do we do? Finished object: a ragdoll. I really enjoyed knitting this ragdoll for Miss L's second birthday. It is a Debbie Bliss pattern. I bought a ...

Tight Knit Mamas: January 2010
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 19, 2010. Fulltime help: do I really need it? With great trepidation I hired a nanny - fulltime. About it and still am not quite sure about it. Do I really need fulltime. Help when Master R is already in nursery 3 days a week? Sure I can't do anything with Master T glued to my hip but I like to feel independent. I always think about my mother raising 4 of us with no help. Then I have to remember the nervous breakdown. Exposure. Rather than the gruelling interview I'm going to give he...

Tight Knit Mamas: Food revolution!
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2010/06/food-revolution.html
Tuesday, June 29, 2010. I love Mama J's post about sharing simple, quick and healthy recipes. I've been making an effort to try new recipes to expand my repertoire. Mister T is getting tired of my roasted chicken with vegetables. I love the range of cuisine and the recipes are really easy to follow. The meals look so nice when they are plated and most of all they taste delicious! I also have also made the Mexican family dinner from goop. A couple of times. It is really easy and a fun family dinner...

Wednesday, April 21, 2010. That offers a baby clothes quilt kit. It offers two levels of DIY. You can cut squares from your favorite pieces that your child wore as a baby and mail them to be sewn for you into a quilt. Or if you are feeling a little adventurous you can buy the kit with instructions on how to sew the quilt yourself. April 21, 2010 at 1:33 PM.

Tight Knit Mamas: May 2010
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. I finally sewed the sheep on last week and with one sheep to go, I showed it to Aidan. He thought with one sheep in my hand, it meant the sheep came off and started pulling at the other sheep I had carefully sewn on there! Will need to put away for a little while. I am very happy with the results and it will be perfect for Liam in the fall. Just don't look too closely at the edges as they are completely uneven. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Follow me on Twitter.

Tight Knit Mamas: November 2009
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 12, 2009. The documentary has just aired on UK TV tonight. Its like watching a horrific car accident. I just can't bring myself to turn it off and yet I'm cringing and feeling so angry at her. Initially I thought I'd watch it with an open mind. I would not prejudge her and give her the benefit of being a loving woman who took motherhood into her own hands and on her own terms. But after seeing those poor children I just feel ill. Then tells her he doesn't like her talking about him....

Tight Knit Mamas: July 2009
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 31, 2009. When Master X learned to talk, he called her "shi-shi" and took great pleasure in seeing her every morning and after her walks. He tried to throw her toys to her so she would chase them and frequently offered her cookies, which would then prompt me to yell "No! And grab his hand away from her mouth. Mister B started telling everyone that Kishi was getting used to Master X and that we hoped they could peacefully coexist. Thursday, July 30, 2009. The fun of meeting other mums.

Tight Knit Mamas: March 2010
http://tightknitmamas.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 27, 2010. My first knitted object for myself. The sweater was an easy knit and I was excited that it was one of the few projects I was able to get through without having to rip it out and start again. Since this spring isn't shaping up to be all that warm, I should get some use out of it. Friday, March 26, 2010. The best cake pan! The day before Master A's birthday party with some family, I mixed up a snickerdoodle cake (great recipe on the pan) greased the pan well and prayed! This bunny...
