What a success!! Yes, I am a mom. I think that word describes me better than any other word- Mom. I'm young, creative, and a mom. Yesterday was my 3rd babies SECOND BIRTHDAY! I still feel like I should be 20 and I have four babies. Wow, time does fly.

Okay, so here is my latest custom order. A gal on etsy contacted me about one of my noggin wear head warmers. I love this one, well she did too, and she wanted a custom made neckwarmer to match. I thought it turned out a whole lot better than i had imagined in my mind when she told me what she was wanting :)
The best part is the cute little button (looks like wood, but its not, so its washable and such) and way that i attach it in the back. So darn cute!

Long year... i'm surprised I haven't posted this whole time. Keeping up with Facebook, etsy (and my new shop http://ballofyarntoo.etsy.com ), Hales family blog, and 4 kids, has been a blast. They are the only things that have kept me sane throughout this whole process of losing a job, staying with inlaws and having our fourth baby. Pregnancy doesnt really agree with me, but having a newborn to hold is priceless!!

NO FLASH! I think Linus broke the flash on my camara, unless he somehow changed the settings on it... but i've already gone through to see if i could fix it. I'm unsure about all the details about my camara, and i've never been able to turn off the flash before, so i though i would sift through the manual today and see if i could fix it. With that being said- here are a couple of photos of me and the boys. Josh had turned on a YouTube film of a guy making fun of Batman because he talks in that crazy low voice... well it had joker in it too and the boys were totally scared because of his crazy mouth, so i went into the bathroom with them and showed them that Joker just didnt know how to put on lipstick... they bought it!

Well- the project is done- and the results are WONDERFUL! I loved making this. I had the idea of using these squares for a baby blanket around the new years, but started with adorable girl colors... however, when natalie told me her baby color scheme, i thought those colors would be great in this style. I was up till midnight on friday finishing it up, and when i was done i was sooo pleased! Can't wait to finish the girly one i started making... wow... over a month ago now!

So, i just felt like addings that title to this post. It really doesnt have anything to do with it :) This week i created a group on Facebook, called "Fan of BALLOFYARN- Karen Abegglen" I was pleasantly surprised at how many of my friends added it! I created it to show off my etsy stuff, and just be a goof.
About the previous post, i accomplished so much of my list, i dont know how- but i did! Now i have a ton to do today! i have to finish Natalies (my lovely sister) baby blanket for her shower tomorrow... and its gonna take forever! But, we do what we gotta do.

Here are a couple of pictures in progress!
