Long time no post! :)  I've been busy trying to get all my stuff done for christmas...i'm half way there !! lol. I'm jsut finishing up a poncho i knit for my mum, i'll post a pic when it's fully done!  I have some tie dyeing to do still, an apron for my father and tea towels for my inlaws.  I can't believe christmas is only next week!!!   I really want it  ot be done and over with so i can start knitting for the new little baby coming!! lol

I'm jsut about 4 months pregnant. I'm feeling pretty good. At my last midwife appointment they told me i have really low iron, so i've been working on trying to get it up with out having to take iron supplements. I think it's working..i'm way less tired than i was before. I've been drinking nettle and RRL infusion every day. I've been having a  really strong adversion to any kind of cooked veggies...It's weird cause thats all i usually eat. I need to get over it though. I had to fill out a 3 day every thing i ate or drank chart for my midwife and i realized the onl;y veggies i had ain a 3 day period were one night for dinne at my mums house.. not so good!  So tonight it's steamed veggie and rice for dinner!! (hopefully..lol)  I have a skirt up on ebay i wanted to share with you all.  I'm really happy with how it turned out and that it didn't take me a long time to make!!lol  Ezra has been sleeping form 8pm to 6.30-7.30 every night for the past month!! yay for me. He has never up until this point slept through the night....makes life alot easier!!

here the link to my auction  http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5453637153

Hope you all are doing well!!

 I just listed these on ebay. (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4791367778&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1)I'm amazed i actually finished them, considering i've been asleep by 9 pm ever night..lol

 Heres a picture of the boys on halloween! EZ is a fireman and K is a pirate. They had a blast !!!!

I'm trying to figure out christams gift ideas. So far i'm knitting my mum a poncho, tiedyeing my inlaws some dish towels and aprons. I'm also making my father a tie dyed shop apron, (he's a wood worker, make Beautiful furniture, right now he's making me a big wooden box for my yarns and rovings!!)  Thats about all of my ideas. I would like to make everyone some herbals but i did that last year...lol  I'm sure it'll all come to me.

anyways thanks for reading!

much love, julia

So i finally found our camera!!YAY..then it took me all day to find the thingy to get the pictures on to the computer to empty the card before i could take some more pictures. I did how ever manage to take a picture of a couple completed projects. :)  I'll post some pictures of the little knitts i've finished up tomorrow..

I've been super ill with morning sickness...well in my case i'll call it all day sickness. I had my first midwife appointment the other day, they took blood and we did paper work...kinda boring. I'm roughly about 7-8 weeks along. I'm also already showing!!!! It's bloating, but none the less being pregnant is not so easy to hide now...lol I guess it has to do with this being my third baby..i was like this with my last baby too. oh well..

that it for me tonight, i'm gonna go sleep while i can! 

heres the pic.... 

Two hemp dresses..sewn and dyed by me..and little itty bitty tie dyed tights!! (i'm really proud of my tight labels!!lol)
