Yarn & Chocolate Swap Update

Hello everyone!

I'm sorry it took me so long to give you guys an update on the yarn & chocolate swap, but I'm finally here!

Sign up for the swap will close this Friday, July 17th, and I'll announce the partners no longer than Sunday, July 19th. Just leave a comment if you wish to sign up.

The deadline for shipping the swap goodies to your partner is the 31st of July.

I did not set a price range because I believe everyone will send good quality yarn, but just as a reminder we will swap two skeins of yarn and a chocolate bar.

Swap participants so far and their preferences:

- me :o) Fiber: cotton or wool Colors: anything bright Chocolate: Milk

  6. It is common for babies to wake every few hours when they are between 6-8 months....it could be two things, a bit of separation anxiety and you/binky give him comfort and reminder that mommy is close or he could be cutting teeth.

    You do walk around the first year like a zombie but as you know the lack of sleep is worth it. Hey before you know it you will be fighting with the kid to get up in the morning for school......!

    My daughter was a miserable child to get up in the morning.....I would have to literally tear the blanket off the bed and drag them across the room so she could not reach for them.....she is 23 and still fussy in the morning...lol

    Well I am already pondering my yarn selection for the swap!
