New little Guy

I thought I should post and update on the new little guy. I can't believe he will be joining us so soon. We are ready to meet him, but I still have a few things to get done before he gets here.

We had an ultrasound a few weeks ago to make sure everything was going well and in order so, we can try for normal delivery. Everything looked great. He even looked like he had little chubby cheeks. It is always amazing to see them and we are just in awe of the details you can see.

He is weighing at about 5 pounds and measuring a little over two weeks ahead so, we will see how big he really is when he gets here.

Here are some pictures from the day. Hopefully, the next pictures we have made will be after he is born.

Crafting

So recently I have been trying to get a few things knitted, smocked, and quilted for the new little guy and a few for Henry. It is nice to see these projects come together, but what has been even more fun is the interest Henry has taken in it all.

He insists on joining in on the crafting. If I am smocking he gets his on smocking supplies out. He has a piece of pleated material and a threaded needle. He will sit right by me and poke the needle through the fabric randomly and often unthreads the needle.
The same goes for knitting and he loves having his own knitting needles and ball of yarn. I put a few loops of the needle for him and he moves them back and forth. mostly he play with the ball of yarn and pretends to wrap the yarn on the needle.
He tries to mimic the process I am doing and pays very close attention to the details it is really quite amazing how observant he is with processes. He sure has a lot of fun even if he does not quite get all the steps; before long he will have it all figured out.
