Day 40-365: Pedway

I emerge from below ground, called the Pedway System. You'd be amazed at the underground tunnel system in Chicago. Sure does help when temps are below freezing.

Day 39-365: Caution

You will find these signs in front of every store on every block in the city. I shake my head every time I see one. How does one walk down the street and avoid falling ice from skyscrapers??

Day 38-365: Celtic Mittens

Latest take-along project are a pair of Celtic Mittens. I've changed the pattern just a bit to have a thumb gusset which fits better on the hand. The numbers work out, so I'm giving it the Thumbs UP!

I gave you a quick sneak-peak in my Project 365 shot yesterday on a new finished object. The family came over for Super Bowl and I was happy to see the hat fit little Lo-Lo perfectly.



Soon after these pictures where shot he began to pull and tug the hat off. I forget how quick babies can be and how much they don't understand the need for a great hat photo!!



He is so freakin' adorable it just melts you. The one thing he has inherited is his mother's dimples. I think my camera would have melted too if I actually caught any glimpse of that smile;)

Day 37-365: Sweet Baby Cap

Family was over for the Super Bowl and I was able to snap a few pic's of the baby cap I knit fit little Lo-lo. I forgot how hard it is to get good shots of babies.
