Zip Up Hoodies

Niece K wanted a purple and a red zip up hoodie for her Bitty Twins Melissa and Jack. I finished these just in the nick of time this morning and the only picture I could get was taken inside with phone camera on a purple table cloth. I tweaked the file in Photo Shop to get the pictures closer to right. But, at least I have a post with a picture of some completed knitting.

The yarns are Plymouth Encore Colorspun. The pattern is my own.

More Than I Could Handle

Kim sent an e-mail saying that she had done math all on her own (and it was right!) and at the same time I looked up to see my son holding hands with a girl.

146

Thanks to a clearance sale at Wal-Mart, I was able to give each niece a play cookware set and a pretend food set. When you add it all up, they each got 146 items. One SIL asked where was she going to put it all. I said, "That's not my problem, I'm the aunt." I love being an aunt. We get to make our own rules.

Settling Down for Some Light Reading

One of my favorite things to do when it is cold outside is to wrap up in a warm blanket and read a good book. Tonight's selection is A Graphical Approach to Precalculus with Limits: A Unit Circle Approach by Hornsby, Lial, and Rockswold. No, I'm not totally sick. I'm reading this because I get to teach this quarter!

Yes, I Am A Math Geek

This was so funny to me.

I was demonstrating our new course management software to my colleagues. One of them noticed that I had posted an announcement for my students that we would be using the Math XL program. He could not figure out what Math 40 was.

I Had to Face the Truth Today

The T-man is taller than me. I had suspected it for a while, but refused to find out for sure. Bebe decided to do a comparison today. He is taller, but I am still the Mom!
