Since he was the first one to announce that there would be an addition to the family, I took on a larger project. A baby blanket, which is big and warm to wrap both baby and mother together. The one side (yes there are two sides) is knit in Cadet blue, with white lettering that says "My daddy is a nerd and I love him" in binary. Because the father...is a huge nerd, a very huge nerd, and I love him for it and so will his little boy. Everyone who knows him loves him for that reason. I chose to do two sides because I didn't want to deal with trying to hide the wrong side. So the otherside is done in Teaberry red...I wish it was a darker red but oh well. 
The otherside says "My mommy is a knitter and I love her" because the mother is also a knitter. This should be a double thrill. The love of knitting is universal, so I hope she loves getting a knitted item instead of just loving making one. Now that the baby blanket is done, I have no more baby projects (except for one remote one) so I'm not sure what to do for my flight. I think I have settled on doing a shawl using a wonderfully multicolored fall colors. It should keep me occupied on the flight as well as keep me warm at work once its finished. Hurray!
Pretty colors eh? This yarn always reminds me of a jaw breaker :)
