Where have I been???

Well, it's certainly been a long time, I'm sorry loyal readers!  Things have gotten a little crazy for me, and I also apologize for missing several Motif of the Month as well!  I hope to be getting back on track soon!  But for now Please rest assured that I will be at the very least blogging more often about what I'm working on and what I hope to start learning soon.

My most important project of late is getting ready to become a new mom!  My hubby and I are expecting are 1st child this August (yes, I've been told that it will be miserable).  We are so excited and can't wait to meet this tiny person that insists on kicking me throughout the night.

Through the first trimester I let all my projects (including my blogging) slide...off the map.  I lost interest in everything, but I am trying to catch back up because 2012 seems to be the year of the babies.  Once I got my feet back under me I started back up and have been knitting/crocheting away.

I have a couple of prizes that are long over due to a couple of friends, I have a whole new line of knit and crochet pet sweaters that I'd like to roll out this year, baby blankets and baby goodies galore to crank out for friends and myself, and list goes on.

Some of the projects are finished and I'm just waiting on my light box to be finished to get some awesome pictures of them to post.

I also hope to reopen my Etsy shop (which has been closed for revamping for months) within the next 2-3 months, and have all new items listed and some old items still listed as well.

Once my husband and I get into our own house (we've been living with some awesome friends since we relocated to CT last year) I hope to start learning how to spin and dye my own yarn, not to mention weaving. I've decided that even though I'm having a baby it doesn't mean that I can't learn a new craft.  Although people have been telling me my sights are a bit lofty, and they probably are, but I'm sure I'll figure it out as I go, right?

Well, that's all for now - I know that for such a long absence this post is incredibly short, but *looks around* I'm still at work, and that could be bad if they knew I was blogging while I was here. ;-)

I will be back soon though!
