latest photos :)

Devon is such a sweet, sweet child! He is such a good baby so far! :) He is always ripping his nose prongs out, thus pulling out hair from ripping the bandaids off his head, but other than that brief moment, he hardly cries at all! We are super blessed! Everything is PERFECT" :)

This is my favorite photo of him so far too. It's a little old, he was still at uw, but I love it. He's perfect. We also found out he has my other dimple....I have only one on my left side, and you can now see that he has one on his right side :)

Well I suppose you can't really tell, but I refinished this old army locker I got at a garage sale, and made it look like weathered wood from an old barn...so now it looks like it actually is made from actual wood pieces...you can kind of see the lines I put in it.....those and the apple baskets I got for 50 cents from the "new to you" store haha. I love that place....for some things.
This is an old cradle that we got for free and I sanded it down and refinished it in a dark red mahogany color....love it.


And of course the blanket that I made for devon. It has 15 tractor squares on it and finally, his information and a copy of his little footprints, yes they are really his, on the bottom corner.







a photo of one close up...they are all embroidered in really bold bright colors! i lvoe this blanket, I want to steal it! :)







Well with Devon coming home and everything, i decided to take on some projects for his future room! We took him home on the 8th of July, and as you can see, yes he is still on oxygen, but that's okay...hopefully it wont be for too long. He is a sweet sweet baby, and always talks to himself for a while, and only cries if he has been talking for a while and we dont give him attention haha. He was 5 lbs and 3 ounces at his first doctor's appointment on friday, and hopefully he has gained more now!
He is a good sleeper, and is a slower waker.....he lets out a good wail, and than goes back to sleep for a while, and does that at least 4 or 5 times. Just a simple ONE WAIL and than SLEEP. If you try and feed him after the first couple of times he cries or fusses, he wont wake up to eat, and than you've wasted milk.
1 more cute thing he does is screech like a cat. May not sound very cute, but when he cries, he starts off by screeching and just sounds l ike a little kitten crying..sad to say we laugh everytime
This is his little hat by the way that I made
for him.....I spent hours, literally days
working on it.....my bad, dont try and learn
to knit by a book...go to a person! haha
