First off-thanks for all the well-wishes! We were thrilled to find out the news and I have my first appointment tomorrow so I should know a tiny bit more.

Sock Wars 3 is kicking my butt. When I got the pattern last week, I realized the yarn I was going to use (KPPPM) was all wrong so I switched to a new yarn (Regia). I reswatched and finally cast on for the sock.

I worked most of the leg of the first sock before I realized I had somehow misread the (very clearly written) pattern and missed an increase so my pattern was incredibly wonky.

So...I restarted with a different ball of Regia and, after making the same miss-an-increase mistake, am now a measly 4 rows into the leg of the first sock. I am already starting to live in mild fear of the mailman. I have given up the idea of taking someone out this first round and am now just trying to selvage my sock knitting mojo. I feel like I really need to get a little farther on the sock before I'm killed and have to send it off to the next knitter.

And, of course, the only real oomph I have for knitting is to cast on for a baby item. Nevermind the other dozen projects that are lying around...

I hate pictureless posts, so here is a cute one of the Munchkin. The Mr and I use our excellent parenting skills to build bubble headdresses on the munch during every bath. This is one of the more impressive ones of late.
