soo hot

soo hot today..need a/c....cant concentrate properly to sew or crochet..so im sitting in front of fan reading blogs and what not..although I did complete pj's for my 5 year old last night..and he loved them..they are not perfect..but they are the very first thing I have done (clothes wise anyway..I did a small quilt) He loved them..wore them to bed..and proceded to "wet" the bed last night..so they are soaking and being washed..so pics to come..the pattern however was..Simplicity 3987..for a very very newbie it was quite simple and easy to do...
Hope you all have a great day..its 90 degrees right now and I think I am heading in for a cool shower before my kiddies come home from school...chow

Some crochet...

Camo pants..fun to crochet and super easy.
white sweater and cap for a good friend who became a grandma for the very first time.
got this pattern from a magazine and it was in blue..I used brown..I love it and wear it all the time.
Hot pink mesh cap..my daughter loves loves loves it and wears it around the house.
this is a tealish color..didnt come out that well in this pic..but its super cute.
purple shorts and top with flutterish sleeves..
and my first ever attempt at baby clothes and it came out wonderful..also came out of magazine..but I dont remember which one..from now on I will keep closer track..I promise.



I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! My kiddies had a blast..although we..well uh..the easter bunny hid the eggs outside at 5am this morning..and we did have one just disappear. But a good time was had by all...
I havent been able to sew much or blog at all due to spring break..however I will be back regularly starting tomorrow..so for now I am going to attempt (remember I am very very new to this whole blogging business) to post some pics of a few of my crochet projects of times past..crossing fingers..
well it went well...but...the pictures went on top of the post...note to self..either figure out how to move them or type text around them..I will figure it out...
side note..I now the pics are a bit crappy..the lighting stunk and my older camera that I used was..well lets just say I have a much much better one now..and hopefully my future pics will come out much better..plus I have learned alot about lighting from reading other blogs..something else to get down..gotta love it..
