Stocking Redo......

I am taking wyatt's name off his stocking and adding pete's in it's place and doing a shepherd's bush for Wyatt. I should have done one in the first place since all my grandkids have shepherds bush ones and I know aimee wants one badly. so.............I have one more shepherd's bush to do this year and then I will take a stocking break but I still have 3 stockings to do for Don's daughters 3 girls so I will probably start those in the summer.

Cameron's Stocking is done



Just some backstitching now and beads. It's done there is a few mistakes but nothing that I can't live with. But at least it is one more DONE!!!!!!!

Update on Stocking....




Here is the update on Cameron's Stocking. there is a mistake here or there but since he never stitched it he won't know. Aimee is doing good. She goes to the Dr. next week but so far no pains. So that is good.

yeesh!

Boy I sure hope she can keep that baby in there. Aimee was to the Dr. yesterday and she is having trouble with contractions. they told her not to work but since she is the only one working that isn't a good option. she only worked 5 hours too. If it isn't one thing to worry about it's 2 or 3 others. I am working this afternoon. Don is fixing the heater, we have a wood burner but I wanted the other one working just in case. so that is being done. I stayed up till 10 last night stitching on the stocking for Cameron. I might can get things done if I don't sleep till Christmas. HA!

well according to my daughter yesterday was a no sleep day.

First she was banging on my door at 10AM wanting me to make that fruit salad so I climbed out of bed, made fruit salad and sent her on her way. I come home from work and take a shower and get my jammies on and at 8PM she shows up holding her stomach and back....I'm standing there in my night gown thinking she didn't bring me any pepsi..when she says we should go to the hospital and she doesn't want to go by herself. Okay so I dry my hair and get dressed and off I go .....she was dyhydrated. returning home at 1230AM I crawl into bed...alarm goes off at 610AM for me to drive the bus but hey it's always the week end.

My list of demands.......

If Obama becomes the president here is a list of demands...

Since he wants to spread the wealth, I will be expecting my check forthwith so that I can buy another kitten and more cross stitch...and my friend wants more cross stitch, Chocolate ice cream and maybe a kitten. And if I don't get it I am going to bitch and complain till I get it. So There.

She says the sampler is just perfect

We are going with the Jungle Baby Sampler by Stoney Creek for Wyatt. I showed it to Aimee and she loved it. She went to the Dr. and they think around the 17th of Dec. so we will see... I did stitch a little today.

My Stitching mojo went bye bye.....

Sadly I have nothing to show. I am hoping to improve since I still have a few things to do before Christmas. Oh and my lovely daughter calls today with the news it's already October 10th and can I believe it and blah blah blah. If she had been here I could have just smacked her.
