FYI- New Knitting Blog

by Alison on December 30, 2006

Just thought I’d give a shameless plug for my new knitting blog- Skeins Her Way.  It’s pretty bare bones right now, just the story of how and why I began knitting… but it will grow… I almost promise…
I’m looking forward to ‘decorating’ it!
Stop by and say ‘hi’,
sit and knit a while,

Wrapping Up 2006

by Alison on December 30, 2006

    We had the pleasure of having mamatc, along with her husband and daughter, over for some food and fellowship last night.  We got to looking at the new baby and comparing her cute little face to the cute little baby face that belonged to Hope in a picture on the wall.  That led to [...]

Prayer Request- The Garvey Family

by Alison on December 28, 2006

Please pray for the Garvey family of Maryland who recently lost their 10th child in a tragic car accident.  The viewing for their 4 week-old little Jesse, is tonight, right now, as I type… and the funeral is tomorrow.
I’m sitting here holding my precious little Mercy and my heart breaks for that family.  I can’t [...]

by Alison on December 27, 2006

    Wow, things have been busy… and I don’t even mean holidays…
    I will write more regularly soon, I almost promise… I just had to stop by and say hi, and let everyone know that we’re all well here.  Mercy is doing wonderfully well.  For those that missed the news, it turned out not [...]

Another Rough Week

by Alison on December 21, 2006

    This week has been a bit rough, though nothing like the last couple, praise the Lord!  I’ve just been so wiped out… I got hit pretty hard yesterday with some sinus crud that had me on the couch for the morning.  As the headache built in strength I moved to the bed and called [...]

Monday, Moday… Dec 18

by Alison on December 19, 2006

    Orchestra went well yesterday.  It’s so much fun to have fellow ‘homeschoolblogger’  (and long-time friend) mamatc and her daughter joining us.
    The young ones did pretty well, it’s such a very long time to sit and be mellow… and I almost finished the baby hat that I started there 2 Mondays ago.  Maybe I’ll [...]

Praise the Lord! No Pertussis!

by Alison on December 16, 2006

    We found out yesterday that the pertussis test was negative!  What a relief!  Baby has continued to improve every day- Tuesday was the big bad scary day where she came close to needing to go into the hospital, the pediatrician gave us his home number that evening… he was quite concerned.  As a parent, [...]

Cranberry Oatmeal Muffins

by Alison on December 14, 2006

I got adventurous this morning and tried a big batch of muffins… cranberries are my favorite!
This is a double batch (24 muffins) to make some for the freezer- great to thaw, warm, and eat on the go on those hurried Sunday mornings (or on your way to work.)
Preheat oven to 400
2 2/3 [...]
