Crafty Girls...Ha!

Here are the much awaited (I'm sure ;) glove animals that Alix and I made. We learned a thing or two along the way and no doubt if there were ever to be a "next time" (which there will not be) then they'd turn out much better ;) Oh well...they were made with love! Alix has named hers Finn and mine will lovingly be called Lou-lu, so when we call the baby an actual name the nickname will live on.

So today...

Lou-lu is still inside...damn him/her! I think I'll really freak out if s/he comes before the Second of JUly. I just don't feel like anything is going on that would give me an inkling that labor is anywhere in my future...although I did bake Chocolate Chunk cookies yesterday--from scratch! That has to be some sort of nesting thing, right?! Alix actually laughed when she came home and I told her. She couldn't believe that I would do such a thing...hmmm, I guess I don't bake much ;)

Today to keep busy...Alix and I went to Lake Nokomis this morning. She rollerbladed (ummm...I don't know what's gotten into her either...usually I have to beg her to do anything active with me) and and Dino and I walked along. It is a gorgeous summer day here and we were all happy as could be just laying under a tree after the fun. We also finally got to our glove animals started (Alix ditched me for a friend yesterday). We have completed the bottom half...they are proving that we are definitely NOT crafty, but it is keeping us busy ;)

7 more days until induction (well, if you don't count today or the induction day...which of course I don't ;)
