Here you see over 25 pounds of love!In the last trimester of my pregnancy, I figured I had a limited amount of time to make baby sweaters for the boys. So, I looked up patterns on the web for a quick and easy pattern to knit. I found one titled "the 5 hour baby sweater". Ideal, right? It turned out to be the 5 hour...yeah right...baby sweater. Maybe it took so long because I modified the pattern as I went. Maybe it was my swollen wrists and fingers that slowed me up. In any case, these sweaters seemed to take forever (much like the last few weeks of my pregnancy!). I did finish them, and not a moment too soon. I put the buttons on just days before the boys were born.
This past week, the boys are finally fitting into their homemade sweaters. I'm pretty proud of them and how they turned out (the boys and the sweaters...the boys more so).

Oh my gosh...fat cheeks, double chins, no necks...what are you feeding those babies? Great smiles, though!
Gus looks pretty stoked about his. Zevon might be working on a modeling career. I think that pose is "Blue Steel".
