On and on it goes


The Apres Surf Hoodie has seen a little progress today.  I managed to add a couple of inches to it.  Not quite to the arm hole decreases yet be we are getting there.  This is a picture from this afternoon before I went to the regular knitting group.  I am hoping to start going more often because its nice to sit and talk to new people and hang out.  On the down side I tend to teach on Sunday's so its hard to put aside time before class to do a little knitting.  It was fun though and I made the bulk of my progress there.  I will say its hard to follow the pattern when you are talking.  Not as hard as when you knit like 5 stitches and then have to drop it to chase your toddler but I digress.  

Speaking of the little monster darling.  Potty training has been on and off all day.  I wasn't home or she was playing outside so I wasn't the main potty trainer today.  She managed to earn M&M's once today which was good but other than that we shall see how it continues on.  Obviously I have no intention of giving up, we are seeing this through to the end even if  it kills me I don't want to.  Last night was her first night in her big girl bed.  She was really excited and so was I.  I wanted to sleep on the floor in her room just to be there for it but that might be a little crazy...I'm not sure, lol.  I checked in on her twice and its a good thing too because she was tangled up in the cord for the blinds (not dangerously but I wasn't taking chances) so J cut them off so she can't sleep with them accidentally.  She slept well last night but this not this afternoon.  She has been really bad about napping lately and I think its going to be hard to make it work when she is no longer in a crib.  I will keep trying or at least have a quiet time in her room for an hour in place of naptime.  Just so I have an opportunity to decompress.  

   
She was playing in bed before her bath last night. She loves her new bed. 

Now I am off to either do a little more knitting or watch some of my class online so I can finish the homework.  I am doing an Anatomy class for yoga.  Its a lot of fun.  I am definitely learning a lot which is always good.  :)
