Older male attorneys - boo on you!

Why oh why does this opposing counsel (an older male attorney) think it is in any way appropriate to refer to his client as a "young lady" in discovery responses?  She's over 50 years old!  So annoying!

Baby Booties

K's high school friend A and his wife S are having twins!  We went to their baby shower last month (btw, easily the biggest baby shower I have ever been to with probably close to 150 guests...) so I knitted these baby booties out of 100% organic cotton.  My lil sis A sent me the pattern for "one hour baby bootles" from her Stitch n' Bitch Nation book.  I followed the pattern exactly except I did not put buttons on the sides to decorate the booties because I thought that might be a choking hazard; instead, I did one pair with single straps and the other pair with double crisscrossed straps.

I love how easy they are to make and the fact that each pair really only took an hour...and the fact that anything that mini just looks so adorable!

Pair #1 - single strap

Pair #2 - double strap

Both pairs next to my cell phone for size-reference.

Finished!

I completed my second 1/2 marathon (Carlsbad) and I am officially retiring from running for at least a year.  This race was really tough on my shins but I'm just glad I finished!  The course was super gorgeous...right along the Pacific Ocean.  Even better was the mounds of all-u-can-eat Korean BBQ we all went out for afterwards :)
