Aunt Tammy

Introducing Nephew Z!

What a wonderful weekend! I spent it in Springfield, MO at my brothers house. My dad was also visiting from Texas. The highlight of course was my nephew! He’s 2 1/2 years old and talking up a storm! He knows all his letters and can even spell a few words. While we were driving to check out antique stores, he said “stop sign…S T O P”!!!

Here’s my brother and little Z being goofy!

But my all time favorite thing that happened this weekend was when nephew Z woke up Saturday morning, he said “Where is Tammy?” I can tell when someone knew me by whether they call me Tammy or Tamara. Tammy was pre-30, Tamara post-30. It is always strange to hear someone call me Tammy, but it was so sweet to hear my nephew ask for me in that adorable little voice of his!

Here is a picture of my Dad and little nephew Z.

My Dad is retired and loves to make things with wood. Here is the birdhouse he made for us!

Very little knitting was done this weekend. I did show off how I can spin with my drop spindle!

Today, my package from the Ravelry mmmmmmmmmmalabrigo swap arrived. This is my second time in this swap, it is very well run and it is so much fun to purchase for someone then receive a surprise in the mail! Check it out! I love the pink and lavender colors of the lace yarn! Sooooooooo pretty. Not sure what will become of it yet.
