The girls

The girls and I are together A LOT. So, of course, they get on my nerves a lot. Today I woke up crabby before having to spend time with them. We went to Safeway and Ayanna heard the people in the floral department blowing up balloons. Ayanna asked “what is that sound, Momma?” I told her we would go see. They watched the lady put the balloon on the thing then it blew up! Yeah!!! Then she gave each girl their own balloon. I, of course, did not have the camera with me to get their faces.

I feel if I write this down, I can refer back to it when I am grumpy at them.

WTF

Picture day for Malik’s soccer team. They took all the pics – three teams and all individuals in front of a VOLLEYBALL NET!!!!

Update

So, for the understatement of the century, I have some updates… A picture from March will be worth a thousand words.

I am on http://www.facebook.com/jenknitter, http://twitter.com/jenknitter and http://www.ravelry.com/people/jenknitter.

Daddy is sooo funny!!

The pic started like this:

Then Daddy did this:

Then he did this:

All children sleep

Malik and DeAndré (ages 14 and 11) asleep in the car after school. Ayanna is asleep in a ball. Her knees are almost touching her forehead. Anytime you see butt in the air, you *know* it is so cute!

Life, now

Now I am testing the app functionality while not connected to wifi.

So, we now have four kids. Ayanna will be 4 in December. Kandyce Marie Brown was born 8/18/08. She is quite the doll and looks sooo much like her sister. Malik is a Freshman in high school and DeAndré is in sixth grade. I am currently not employed outside the home. I am knitting when I find the time.

That is enough for now. More later.

Testing

Testing the app. Here is what I have been up to while I was away.

Hello world!

I am here, now.  I have the “app for that” and hopefully I will not drop off the planet for two years this time.

Pictures

Well, I can’t find my camera. Therefore, I had to use my husband’s. I finished some stuff.

Technically not finished. The mug is for scale. Two Christmas purses. I have to sew the handle down.

Scarf Number 1. Shibui yarn.

Bad pic of the hat that goes with the scarf.

An attempt at both at once.

I am going to make three or four of the scarf hat sets. The first one took just under a week. I have one set done, plus the hat and about half of the scarf done for the other.

The purses took two days to knit.
