Knowing full well that my due date will come and go with no baby, I'm trying to stay busy.
I crocheted the edges of this baby blanket. My mom always gave us two blankets when we had a baby, and my kids have loved theirs to death. They love to finger the edges until it pretty much falls apart. Since that's not going to happen anymore- I'm making my own. I'll make the second one after the baby is here so I don't have to be so gender-neutral. I also want to ask around the ward for someone to teach me a different edge. I really like doing it, and it reminds me of Old mom. :)
I also got a fabulous pedicure. :) It's seriously one of my favorite treats to myself. If you are in Ames, get yourself to Serenity Nails!
I also made two Sunday dresses for Brighton, which I'll have to take a picture of and post later. I can't find dresses that are long enough or are the right style, so I'll probably be making a lot of dresses in the future. Brooklyn has to wear a size 6 just for the length, and she normally fits a size 2/3.

Way to keep busy. That blanket is really cute! Have you tried looking on line for new edges? I'll bet you can find a few free patterns if you google it.
How IS your mom, BTW? I was thinking about her the other day.
Seriously, Brittany, could you be a little more productive? It's not like you're 39 weeks and 6 days pregnant or anything.
But honestly, that blanket is darling. I'm in awe of your talent.
Here's hoping the baby decides to come on time!
