I woke up around 4 am, nothing new I have had that break in my sleep for a couple of months already. Went downstairs to the toilet. When I got up afterwards, my water broke.
I sat back down & smiled. Knowing I would have my babyson be born that day made me all giggly & giddy!

When I found out I was pregnant I had calculated my duedate: april 4. The first ultrasound said april 10...

We were going to prove them wrong!

At 7 minutes past 7 in the evening T. was born at home weighing 4120 grams.



And after just 2 days T. gave me a glimpse of his personality:

Happy birthday funny boy!

Love you!

Mamma

Happy monday to you all!

SUPEREGGS! 

Wanted to make some new egg cozies for upcoming easter. Last saturday I spend a few hours on Ravelry in search of a nice pattern. But I just couldn't find a cozy I liked.

At 3 (or 4 :) ) in the morning a woke up & started thinking, what was the last project a knitted & finished???

And there it was: the Zsa Mask! 

In daylight my idea still seemed okay & so I started to knit!

I had so much fun knitting, I couldn't stop at 4 :) 

So here's the deal: if you like to have a set of 4 SuperEggCozies

all you have to do is leave a comment before monday april 4 midnight!

Tuesday april 5 I will announce the winner!

Good luck!

A beautiful book

Bought this book yesterday, but it's so beautiful, it deserves its' own post.

Love the illustrations & bright colors. My boys like the book as well, it got some sweet stories!

Hopefully we all adept quickly to the 'they-took-an-hour-away-effect'. It always seems to kick me off balance, not to mention the boys! 

Meanwhile I am working on a giveaway, it actually almost kept me awake last night! :)
