I'm still here. And by the way, I still knit.

In the month of May I took very few pictures and wrote exactly one blog post. I had a nice Mother's Day, I survived another short Jonathan trip, I went to Happy Hollow a lot, I worked, and I tried to keep up with these crazy Fortney boys.
I also finished knitting an afghan for my mom that I started back in 2007. I hardly touched it between Christmas 2007 and when Graham was born. Funny story: I thought my passport was lost for about two years; I recently found it in a box of pins, clips, needles, and other knitting paraphernalia, along with Finn's and my hospital bracelets. So here it is, my mom's 2007 Christmas and birthday present, finally mailed shortly after Mother's Day 2010:
Now that that's all wrapped up (just in time, because it is now WAY to hot to knit with most of an afghan on my lap), I've gone back to my other giant project from 2007, my "Learn to Knit" afghan, from the Learn-To-Knit-Afghan Book. Fortunately, it's several small pieces, so I can knit even if it's warm. After this, I'm only knitting small things for a while, like hats. Possibly thimbles.
I've also been cooking some more, now that it's summer and we have tasty things to eat. I think this week I'm going to be too afraid to turn on the oven, but if I wasn't, I'd make this again. We end up licking the pan every time.
And because I can't do a post without any pictures of the boys, here's something we did a couple weeks ago. Finn had a fun project for school about how many pets and siblings he had and stuff like that. He didn't feel much like coloring that day, so we printed out some pictures to cut out and glue on. I like the resulting fit-them-all-on-a-4-by-6 collage.
More at Flickr. No really, I just uploaded some last night.
