Hopefully it's not illegal...

Hello everybody! (Anyone else hear that one doctor from The Simpsons here? lol) Happy Valentines Day! It probably won't be v-day anymore by the time I finish this blog but it doesn't matter to me. Wanna see what I got for Valentine's day?




A dozen roses, a stuffed turtle (hubby affectionately calls me Turtle because I have a habit of "turtle-ing" any time anyone gets close to my neck lol), and a box of really nice truffles. Mmm tasty. Oh yeah, and there's a balloon I didn't take a picture of. It's Pooh and it says "I love you! From your Honey"

Here's a better look at my turtle. Aren't those brown eyes just a killer? I love my hubby, let me tell you. This is the first time in our entire relationship he's bought me a dozen roses




Ok, on to what you're really here for. The knitting. Here is how I managed to totally kick Krystal's butt in the KAL.




Two pairs. I kinda feel bad though. I mean, I wasn't TRYING to blow right past her. I just really enjoyed knitting these pants. In fact, I had a hard time not casting on for a third pair directly after finishing the second. I felt like Stephanie with that one baby sweater pattern

I can stop any time I want to. Really.

Ha ha, yeah yeah... I bet you can stop. You know, I think Stephanie may have found a 12 step program, you should ask her about it. She's probably doing it right now for the leaves...

I think the present from hubby is awesome!! cute turtle! And the pants are just adorable. I especially like the purple ones with the color striping in the legs matching up on the diagonal....It was almost if you planned it that way! I plan on making some baby pants myself....for my BF and my other really close friend as well. Glad to see they knit up quick!
