Welcome to Katrina!

Last week, my brother Chris and his wife Stephanie added Katrina to their family, along with Alex (and the birds Phoebe & Pete). Katrina clocked in at nearly eight pounds - a big 'un, like her big brother.

In any case, I had bought some plain white baby socks a while ago, hoping to have them trimmed to send out before Katrina made her appearance. Of course, I procrastinated and never got around to it. But this weekend, I was procrastinating on another project and finally got to it.

So, Katrina's socks:




Boy, were those a pain to sew on! Especially on the toes, but I figured that would be the best place to put them (but I got hand cramps by the purple ones). They're crocheted with #5 thread.

I was going to wait until Chris and the family come to town for Thanksgiving to give them to them, but I think I'll mail them out this weekend. I just can't wait.

Welcome to the world, Katrina!

Nothing better than welcoming a new baby into the family. :-D

Me, I'm just thinking your brother is not just asking for trouble, but getting down on his knees and *begging* for it! :-)

So cute! It's important to teach the young the importance of cool socks. B)
