FO Friday
Dahlia was sick with Croup and Thrush this week so I didn't have much time to knit or really do anything. My poor girl was in need of her mommy and a lot of cuddles. I did however make this mini monster while she was napping a lot. It took way longer than usual I don't know why but oh well. She's feeling much better now though.
And I also did finish my socks! FINALLY! I love how they came out they fit great for the most part but next time I'm using Susan B. Anderson's sock directions since I referenced them a lot and I found them much easier to follow.

WIP Wednesday & FO Friday
I suck at posting on my scheduled days. Seriously.
Well my WIP is my sock, I also started the Hurly Burly from the super scary mochimochi book as well as Kat the Kitchen Monster from the big book of monsters. But I don't have pics of those. I've been intensely working on my first sock. It's finally done. I'm pretty sure I did the Kitchener right. I started the second one and I'm halfway through the cuff. I used the Very Vanilla Socks pattern but its a bit tight around the cuff so next pair I'm using Susan B. Anderson's pattern because I've been referencing it throughout for better wording. It's basically the same but its 4 stitches bigger and I think that'll be just enough.
My Finished Objects are:

Dahlia looks like a real toddler today. Her pony tails are so long these days and she's getting so tall. Can't handle it. She's growing fast
May 22
But on the plus side dahlia came in my bed and cuddled for a full 5 min woo!! I love when she wants to cuddle it rarely happens
Dahlia is talking so much lately it's incredible. Can't believe in less than a month she's going to be a year old.
May 23
Dahlia got all tired out at her play date with Alden & is now asleep. Time to get some knitting in with a little snack :)
I have project start-itis. Starting my 3rd project in 2 days and haven't made a dent in any of them
The second one always comes out better. Now I feel productive. Shower & bed. Starting a pair of socks tomorrow pic.twitter.com/ynu7xedj5e

I love watching dahlia do the hot dog dance. I say it all the time but it's the highlight of my morningKnitting myself a tardis kindle case at the doctor waiting for my uncle.

May 16
Waking up next to that one person makes any morning a good one
Because I'm not a big enough doctor who nerd. I now have my tardis phone case. I now unlock all doors with my sonic screwdriver
Dahlia came home with tons of hugs and kisses from my grandpas house. Guess she missed me as much as I missed her <3 span="">3>
May 17
I can't eat pizza anymore without dahlia screaming and simultaneously signing more! For my crust
Just dropped my munchkin to her grandparents and got my back adjusted. Feel so much better!! Now time to stuff my face full of breakfast
May 18
Can't believe my little girl is 11 months old today. Pictures will have to wait until tomorrow she's at her grandparents until tmrw :(
Re-watching nightmare in silver before the season finale of doctor who at it's scheduled (American) time. Fangirling like none other
