After we found out we were likely having a girl, I got started on making her a Baby Yoda Sweater in Lilac Mission Falls 1824 Cotton. It was a pretty easy knit but I lagged on putting all the pieces together until after Zoe was born. It is supposed to fit newborn to 6 months but it is slightly big on little Miss Windu now at nearly 3 months.

I also finished my first pair of socks before Zoe's birth and thought I took a pic but can't find it. I'll have to take another of the finished socks, the new socks in progress, and the gauge swatch for my "Dollar and a Half" sweater from the Winter 2007 issue of Interweave Knits.

We've had a bit of a rollercoaster this week but today and yesterday have been really good. So much that I start to think I'm getting the hang of this mommy thing. Today we have Pirate Baby!

I almost feel normal again. This week I have managed to do the following:

- get a haircut
- vacuum the house
- do most of the laundry
- get 5 hours of sleep in a row
- knit the bottom ribbing on my sweater
- clear the counter of the dirty dish backlog
- meet Mark for lunch at my favorite mediterranean cafe (Yay, gyros!)
- dye my hair
- arrange returning to work next month (20 hrs/week, from home, no set schedule)
- scrub the shower walls
- eat nachos (Zoe's almost 3 months so we're re-testing dairy)

Yeah, it's been a good week.
