Magic Socks!
Today I completed my Magic Socks!!! You might be wondering… what’s so magical about the socks? :) You see, they have been knitted with a knitting technique called Magic Loop. And I love-love-love it! I don’t think I’ll ever use DPNs again to make socks! It’s that good.
This project has been quite the labor of love. You see, the making of these socks took a little over a year to complete. I’m blaming it on being preggers & taking care of my baby— not because I’m a huge procrastinator!
If you’d like read more about the making of these magical socks, check out ravelry for all of the info! Now for the part you’ve all been waiting for… pictures! Enjoy!
3 New Videos! That’s right, 3!
Here’s our little star playing in his most favorite toy right now. His Jumper! We have soooo much footage of Ben jumping in this thing, it was hard to cut it down to just one video. So I made 3! All of this footage is from the last 4 weeks.
A word of warning… you might want to cover your ears when our screamin’ banshee gets really excited! He really loves this thing!!! :)

Our little astronaut almost missed his 1st trick-or-treating mission due to an unscheduled nap 5 minutes before we were about to Blast Off!!! Mr. Ben the Astronaut decided to have a mini meltdown once in his costume, followed by a much needed 20 minute power nap. Mommy & Daddy thought Mr. Ben was going to miss going door-to-door to show off his very, very, very, special rocket that daddy made him AND of course, showing off his adorable astronaut costume.
Ben woke up from his nap 20 minutes before his last feeding, I quickly put him back in his costume, and we were able to go to 2 houses before our astronaut wanted his ba-ba. Oh, to be 7 months old! :)
I know that Benjamin will have no memory of last night– but I’ll be sure to remind him how awesome his 1st Halloween was! Best Halloween ever :) Can’t wait for next year.
Here’s a little slideshow of the Halloween Happenings…
