Weekend Update, Jaxson's Room Finished

This weekend was spent with my DD's, DM, DS, and my best friend. We went to DD1's for her baby shower. While we were there we decorated Jaxson's nusery Friday night (after 3 glasses of wine) since Grey's Anatomy was a rerun, LOL. His theme is nautical. It is so cute.
This picture has some of DSIL's picture of his coast guard ship along with other little things. The large thing in the center has all the flags that may be on a ship. DH and I bought this last year for SIL on our cruise. The rocker is SIL's grandmother that his mom used to rock him and his brother.


This is the one of the other side's of the room with his coast guard life ring. The picture I bought at an estate sale and the boat model is of the USS constiution the DH bought just for Jaxson. We got him a perpetual calender so he can learn his days of the week, month, weather, season, etc. The little sweater hanging is my first attempt at knitting sweater, LOL. And the little outfit has "First Mate" on it. They may bring him home dressed in it. The light blue thing hanging next to it is the hooded bath towel I knitted for him. And the afghan on the bed is one I machine knitted and duplicate stitiched sailboats onit. In the life ring is some netting with shells and a little pirate bear (DD1 is a bear collector) that DD1 had in her collection and he had to come into the nursery. LOL.
This picture is of his dresser. The picture's under it are his 3-D ultrasound pictures and DD1's pictures taken at the Perdenales River a couple weeks ago framed with the signatures of everyone who attended the baby showers. She is going to put a pad on top of the dresser for his changing table. SIL made the mirror that has Anchor's Away (SIL say's "for you know what he has done and why he is being changed there, LOL) and his name at the bottom. It is so cute. We added bits of netting around the room and caught shells up in it.





Here we are just ready to leave for the shower. DD2 is on the right, DD1 in the middle and still only looking about 6 months, LOL. She's only gained 9 pounds so far and still has a waist. I look as big as she does, LMBO.















And since all my projects were too big to travel with, I started a new one. LOL. This is a little sock pattern from The Sock Calendar-Socks for All Seasons. The pattern is Summer Solstice and I am using Regia Cotton in Surf color. It's coming out great. It will be a great little summer cotton sock.

It was a fabulous trip, fast and with lots going on. And I will be making it again soon, LOL. Only 4-6 weeks left. Wow it's gone by fast.
