Little tiny feet, fingers and noses

My nephew – the best thing that ever happened to my family – and his wife (also pretty cool) are pregnant with TWINS.

Two of em’ I say.

Squuueeeeeeeeeee

Already I am shopping for my first ever baby knit pattern book.

Visions of bitchin wee afghans in my head.

Knit burp cloths.

Wash cloths

Ok.

Calm down.

Plenty of time.

Breathe.

But….there are two of them coming.  Two.  Panic!!!  In a really cool way!

Joy joy!!

  1. Rox,

    Being the mother of twins, I can say it is a VERY COOL thing! And they will be doubly blessed with a Great Aunt Rox!!! My recommendation is for the mother to find out the genders as soon as she can, unless she adamantly wants to be surprised. It makes knitting of bibssweatersvestsocksmittenshatsblankiesknitbumpersforthecrib… in the right colorways oh so much easier :) Knit on, dear friend, knit on…

  2. Oh how exciting!! I have half your excitement (not really!!) as my friends’ son and daughetr-in-law are having a baby girl and she would like hand knitted things!! How wonderful!!!

  3. Yay! Four-and-a-half months per!!!! Go get ‘em, kiddo!!!!

  4. Happy Dance! You’re going to be the “Cool Aunt”, I can already tell. :-)

  5. Firstly congrats…but secondly GREAT aunt Rox – snigger. I bet you are feeling that – ouch. I bet there will be baby things galore on your needles. Maybe you shouldn’t tell G and let him sweat a little when he discovers the first pair of booties ;-)

  6. Woohoo! A great auntie! How exciting (and slightly terrifying for your nephew and his wife)! Congratulations to everyone!
