my first hat

was finished today, finally. i had never seamed anything so it took me a lot of stitches to get it right. thus, the seam looks terrible. i don't mind though, it's part of the learning process in my opinion. i was so excited to give it to gus. i let him put it on, i asked him to sit so i could get the camera, and he got so mad at me! i have one frowning picture of him on my camera. he took it off then and threw it on the floor! NO HAT MOMMY! :-( so then i rolled up the edge and put it on hudson and he started crying and took it off, too. what gives?? i made it with super soft satin yarn that is going to pill but it's so soft against their skin.
that's how most of today went. i made this toddler-sized baked potato bar on his little table and he ate like three bites. hysteria over every single thing i said to him today. "gus, would you use a fork instead of a spoon, please? WAAAAHHHH"
hudson wouldn't settle down to nap, but wanted to cry his eyes out even in my arms all afternoon. my head is pounding. ugh. i was an awful mom today. one sunday of having jj here a week isn't enough. i don't need to be alone, or get out of the house alone, i just need an adult to talk to for more than 10 minutes in the morning. i'm nervous about how first shift is going to go, especially with the overtime. at least i'll be asleep for 1/3 of it.
