not sure where this little leaf came from, but I am finding them all over the house. Baby bejos? Elves?

baby bejos withdrawl?

I hear that baby bejos isn't getting enough face time here on kickenbejos.

We are having so much fun with this age. He mimics everything we do (for better or for worse), wants to be a part of everything we do, and is talking up a mumbled storm.

At sister bejos' wedding there was a jar of de-li-cious pickles. Mr. bejos and I have tried pickling before, with jalepenos and no real success. And although a little late in the season we attempted it and made some darn good pickles.

baby girl

Friends of our were generous enough to have a baby girl for whom I was tickled to make a girly, but not too girly, sweater for.

I love this pattern, even if I had to knit it twice. One strand of yarn wasn't enough so I pulled it all out and started over again with a double strand. Although it was time consuming it gave me the opportunity to correct a few of the mistakes that were woven into the original.
The pattern is from More Last-Minute Knitted Gifts

there's a mouse in the house

Everyone says it. "They grow so fast" (babies, not mice).

In any given moment, and often during the same day, we look at baby bejos and say "he is so little" or "he's gotten so big!" This tends to happen when we see a new baby or get a load of too big hand-me-down clothes.

For Christmas, sister bejos gifted baby bejos a very cute pair of slippers that seemed HUGE at the time and were put away for when he got MUCH bigger - like years away. Then today, when putting away those 3T hand-me-downs, I re-discovered them in his "big boy" box of clothes.

Needless to say he loves them.
