Long time, no post!

Guten Tag! (That means, Good day!, in German.) So much new things to say! Well, Captain Hooks son has entered the world! It turned out that his name really became Baby Green. It's certainly interesting, nevertheless, he'll be an interesting little boy. He is absolutely adorable! His eyes are big and his little nose is so cute! Evil Bunny hasn't had Baby Yellow yet. She's almost hit the two-week mark, I think. I predict that Yellow will have red hair like his daddy and big, green or brown eyes (green like his mama's).


On crochet topics, I've been working different projects. I tested a slinky dog for a lady on the 'ville. I dubbed him Marty, The Dog With Backwards Legs. LOL! Really, I accidently turned his head around when I was sewing on the legs or maybe it was vice-versa, hmmmmm. I don't remember. Oh, well. Here is a pic of Marty, T.D.W.B.L.


I'm also working on a purse called "In Bloom" from the Happy Hooker book. I'm doing it in a variegated purple and the whole tough part is doing tons of rows of just half-double crochet. :( I'm also trying out size 10 thread for the first time. Its really fun to work with and I'm also trying out filet crochet at the same time. I'm doing a heart filet bookmark that I found on crochetpatterncentral.com . Unfortunately, I started with the wrong size hook, so it's coming out a bit bigger than a bookmark should be, but it's still pretty. :D

On a funny note, we went to visit Captain Hook yesterday and we all took turns holding Baby Green. Well, I was holding Baby Green for the last time that day and he decided to empty his little bladder all over the front of me. I was like, "Mom? Mom, he's leaking!" It was funny, although I didn't realize that 'til after I had changed. It practically covered the whole front of my track sweatshirt and went through a little bit to my t-shirt. So Captain Hook got a Stewy (from Family Guy) shirt for me to wear home. It was like a badge of honor. LOL.

Speaking of track, at the end of the season, Coach Kevin said that I'll be one of the best hurdlers returning! Yay me!

Now, that you have read my most recent novel, I will go and experience my next! Ciao!

Here I am!!

Hola! I am still here, I've just been busy. My brother and his girlfriend have yet to have their baby. It's almost near the two-week mark! :( It's going to be worth the wait, though! They've decided to name him Baby Green.
My track team had our state meet (Championship) and we came in fifth! FIFTH! Out of eight! I couldn't believe it! Atleast, well, it's better than 6th, 7th (which was our place last year), and 8th. Today, the coach said that next year, I'll be one of the best hurdlers returning. Yay!!
On Thursday, I am going to two pizza parties! One is for participating in a Typing Challenge and the other is for the track team. Then, on Friday, the school band is having a par-...I mean, a "get together". Hee-hee. ( We're not supposed to have parties at school. So, they're, "get togethers".) And on Friday afternoon, I'm going bowling! Bowling is so much fun!
Before I leave, I want to post this link. If you click here, you can get....... your very own silly name! Mine is Dinky TowelBuns!! lol!
