Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me

I have a friend who once suffered from extreme Insomnia, and that was her catch phrase.
No, I don't have Insomnia.. Just up at 1 in the morning blogging when I should be in bed. Honestly, I think I am too tired to get up out of the computer chair. Oh well, never claimed to be sane *sigh*

Something Me and Lil bit like: Baby Days By Barbara Rowley
It is a book that has activities and ideas for parents to do with children under the age of three.
Some things we have tried: I have made her a theme meal (all green: Kiwi, avocados, Broccoli, and green pieces of cereal), I made her a tent out of two chairs and a blanket, made her a "sand box" out of a laundry basket and oatmeal.
I think this book is good for getting out of the day to day rut of parenting, and really enjoying your child, and showing him or her how to enjoy the world around them.

Was running late for a dinner date that we made with another couple, and instead of fretting over being late, and are we going to the right place anyways, I took out my knitting, and knit while hubby drove. It relaxed me, and kept me from obsessing. Do you know, that this is the first time in a LONG time that I knitted because I wanted to. Somehow I have gotten to the point that I feel obligated to knit.. Either because someone needs a project, or I have to prove something somehow. Question is, how do I get back to knitting like a mad woman because I WANT TO. Interesting that I have no problems wanting to want to knit.

More words

I swear Lil Bit is saying almost a new word every day. One word really shows that she is growing up. It was "Poopy" and she was! *sigh* Time to buy a potty chair. At least, to get her used to the idea. She has been taking off her diapers herself when she is too wet, or poopy for a little bit, anyways.

Another word that amuses me is Z. Yep, the letter. Lil Bit has a stuffed spider that sings about letters one at a time, randomly. She plays with it in her crib when she is awake, but I still haven't gotten her. One morning, I come in, and she pressed her spider. The letter was Z. The spider said "say it with me, Z" and Lil Bit DID! Kinda cool.

Other words: Mica (grandpa's puppy), Oww, Peek A Boo, Grandpa,Teresa (yes, me),Cracker, Out, Bye-Bye, Blue Berry, Apple, Ball, Awake

Have more I want to post about, but will get to it later, Lil bit wants to play

Have been meaning to post

But for the last couple of days, when I go to, all I think of is Kate ( http://www.buffaloknitter.blogspot.com/ ) . Kate has a daughter about the same age as Lil Bit. I found her on a Christmas Knitting blog, and have been reading her ever since. We share a joy of knitting and all hand craft, and I enjoy comparing progress (without judgment) of our daughters. Kate was seven months pregnant, but lost the baby. My heart goes out to Kate.
