A Fun Day

So today has been a rather productive day. I managed to crochet this adorable hat out of some scrap yarn I had. The pattern I "followed" called for the hat to meet at 4 points and then have 4 pom poms, but I modified it to make it easier for me.

Such a great baby model. The doll is about the real size of a newborn, maybe a little bigger.

And here is Yahaira, not a flattering picture, but she wanted it to be taken none the less.

As you can tell, today has been a pajama day. It's now 4pm and Yahaira and I are still in our pjs. They are comfy and warm...which is a must since we pay WAY too much to keep our house cold. We got the heating bill today: $431! Ridiculous! Live and learn I guess. I will never "lock in" my gas prices again because we did that last year...because rates were suppose to go way up. Well, they have actually dropped A LOT and we are stuck with the high locked in price. STUPID TAX as Dave Ramsey would say. Oh well, I cancelled the contract today, but we have to pay exit fees.

On another note, some friends came over to have lunch, play with Yahaira and make homemade laundry detergent. Out of the 6 little ones in the house, only 2 helped...a third one got interested at the very end. It was super easy to make and I think it was fun.

We also got to see another friend and her oldest when they stopped by to drop some stuff off for Israella. I can't wait to find out what she's having so I can crochet her a cute gift before they move in March.

I'm still prego,but we'll see if I've dilated any more tomorrow. I also better remember to find out which days my midwife is on call because I would much rather have her deliver Israella than a doctor I haven't met. Ok, I've met one of the other doctors, but I've been seeing Lucy (my midwife) for every visit except 1. I'm just praying that she'll be on call if I give birth at night or on the weekend. There is power in prayer, and I'm going to tap into it!:)
