Finally...

Finally, REI has a gift registry. Where was that when I got married? Of course, we needed plates and linens and household stuff but..... we could have used camping gear instead! We could have eaten off our backpacking plates. Now, don't get the wrong idea, I haven't started a registry there. I'm not hinting. But the excitement, I could have a registry at REI . http://www.rei.com/giftregistry

President 2008

Now, I'd like to say I'm not one to get too "out there" about politics. Except his name is Barack Obama and I really like him. Tomorrow, (Sat.

The first sling (Tigger tested - see previous post) made it's appearance at the baby shower. Even though I was supposed to have enough fabric to make two that time, I didn't. Well, another friend announced her pregnancy soon after and I thought... "hum, that was easy, perhaps I'll make her a sling too, since I still need to make myself one." I asked her and she confided that she secretly hoped I'd make her one. So that made two. And then I realized how many friends I knew from all over that were pregnant (or delivered in December). Suddenly two slings to create kept multiplying. So, in my nesting-ness, I felt like they needed to be done NOW before the baby arrives. So, you're looking at a picture of six baby slings. Yep, six. I'm sure there are more people who would like slings. I'm hiding from the
