I totally forgot!

Both of the pieces that I made in the hospital were WAY too big for Megan as a newborn, so I stored them in the "to wear someday" box and didn't think about them again until recently.  A bit too late.
The snowy highway to Tahoe is too scary to drive on, so I'm afraid that there is no need for a snowbunny suit this year.  Oh well - we tried it on just to see.  It fits except for the fact that her toes are hanging out of the bottom.  I still love it though . . . she is wearing this to the grocery store today!
Her cable knit "dress" that I loved to make, has now become a top.  It works right?

Thank You Cindy!

This Christmas stocking arrived in the mail on Saturday.  Everyone in the Mowers family has one of these knitted by my Great Grandmother Sybenga or Grandmother Keeney.  Thanks to my talented Aunt Cindy carrying on the family tradition, my husband and my daughter now have one too.  Megan's is exquisite if I do say so myself.

The end of the year has proven to have a few too many surprises for the Eichlers . . . and our Christmas card for 2010 says it all.  This was the first year that the cats did not make the cut.  Megan got her pictures taken, I spent hours pouring over cards, put this order in with plenty of time to spare and this is what we got back . . .
My beautiful baby girl is in the picture, but the bottom of the card says Fiona, Daniel, Stephanie, and Maya Buckingham.  (UGH!)  Your X-Mas card (from the Eichlers) is coming, just slightly late.  

2011 here we come!!!!
