in the stuff i made her before she was born

so i made her all this stuff before she was born, right? well, not a whole lot of stuff but some, and finally she's fitting into them! so i thought i'd show her wearing her stuff :)

the first one is the 5 hour sweater, which i now call the five hour plus sweater, 'cause it ain't taking five hours unless you knit the entire day without stopping for potty breaks or food. here it was flat and sad and baby-less (waiting for little mia to wear it).

i also made a couple of fruit hats for her, the first one being the little periwinkle fruit hat, also being called the eggplant hat, currently. hard to see in this pic, but it has a little stem and leaves. here you can see the hat in all its glory, pre-model.

the third pic is another hat i knit in a hurry, 'cause i realized that the first fruit hat didn't match what she was going to wear on her way home from the hospital. i know that sounds crazy, but i was waaaaay deep into nesting mode and on the hunt for the perfect coming home outfit at the time. i never took a picture of that one by itself, so here it is, on my best model :)

custom onesies

i made these three onesies for the crafty onesie swap :) i love them, even though they're not for miss mia... well, i might make her one like the tie one (actually i got all the stuff together to make one!). i love that one! anyhow, i also made a little orange hat that goes with her one of the onesies... my partner said she loved them and i hope her future baby will at least enjoy wearing them :) i hope she really did!

roll over

mia rolled over yesterday for the first time! i think this is the first "first" that i'm super excited about. especially since she's been really trying hard (making cute grunting noises and such) for about three days. and finally yesterday she did it!!! today she perfected it and now she's a pro :) i guess this is the beginning of the end of the messy house now that my little monkey has figured out mobility!
