We went shopping today. me, Darling and Tuomas. Tuomas had rough and long day. He didn't sleap much (too exciting) and eating was bit difficult too. But he managed the whole day and with couple of tired-crying he was his happy talkative self. We met his godfather and one of my friends and he was all smiles to both of them... after few minutes stares. I shopped for Christmas presents. I'm making most of them myself. Considering that my shoppings cost me about 80 euros (115 USD) and I got 5 gifts and lots of extra for myself, I think I did pretty well... And since I already had lots of things at home, I'm making gifts pretty cheap this year... Now I only need some stuffing to hobby horses and sticks.... And time to work with them too.

Right now I'm cutting rags. I found instructions to make kettleholders from rags with crochet hook... Can't wait to start working with that. But I need weft(?) so I'm cutting textiles I found from closets...

Darling has early wake up tomor... today, so me and Tuomas have been in other room for couple of hours to let Darling catch some sleep. With Tuomas there I don't think he would have gotten any.. if he has even now. We both have had some difficulties with sleeping lately. I just hope Tuomas wont wake up when I carry him to his bed... Anyway...There's lots of sewing and knitting and crocheting to do this week, plus I need to read my friend's thesis before weekend...

Yup... I love Christmas...
