Jeanne is crawling!

Hi everybody,

I just wanted to let all of Jeanne's fans know that she is now crawling! Her new favourite toys include the vacuum cleaner and the fireplace!

P.S. I'm (Ellen) on facebook now, so come find me!

Ten months old

World-wide knit in public day, this Saturday June 9

I'll be out in the Halifax Public Gardens, representing oppressed crocheters everywhere.

Our new home

Hey all,

We have now officially moved into our new house and boy is it great. It is unfortunately full of boxes, but it's even better than I remembered from our initial tour. Marie's movers came the same day ours did, even though they had said her stuff might take as many as ten days, and that was very chaotic, but we're starting to get organized now. This house is amazing and I know were going to be able to make it really beautiful and comfortable.

Jeanne was so excited by the move and hasn't stopped grinning in days (though that might be because Jake is home - she was just so happy to see him, and Grandma too). She has officially said her first word (that is, all three of us have heard her say it in the appropriate context). Was it Mama, you ask, or maybe Dada? Nope: Kit (i.e. Kitty).

We're all starting to settle in, though things will be busy for a while (when are they not, right?) Pictures, of the new house and of Jeanne, will follow.
