Isn’t it always the case that right after a bout of productivity one is slammed down with a cold. So frustrating. All the Langs are home sick today. Oscar’s been absorbed by Noggin, Tim’s being a good husband and off to the store for supplies and I’m being a lazy bum and reading magazines with a kleenex shoved up my nose. When I get better…
I’m going to knit this matinee coat from a vintage knitting magazine
and make this bambi for the baby
make some nursery decisions
and find a big boy bed for boxcar.
Oh, that bambi is adorable!
Hope your feeling better soon. We just went thru sharing our cold here too.
I love the posters on the wall in the last picture and the shape of that bed is awesome! We just sold my son’s bunkbed because it took up WAY to much space for such a small room. Wonder who makes it or what style it’s called?
I love the little deer!
I’m so excited to see the nursery/ big boy room changes…
the list goes on and on. isnt that the way it always is when you have a cold or are sick. you cant go anywhere so you feel like you should be getting things done around the house but alas dreaming of the things to come will have to do for now…. hope you feel better soon!
Colds while pregnant suck. Feel better soon!
I look forward to seeing the knitted sweater.
Oh, such sweet stuff.
We’ve been laid low by colds at our house too. (Everyone else got better soon – lucky me, mine turned into bronchitis and sinusitis.) Hope you feel better soon!
Hope all are feeling better soon. This year has certainly been the year of butt kickin’ colds/flu huh?
Love all the photos, the deer and sweater evoked an outloud Awwwww which got a strange look from Hubbo. LOVE the deer, awwww!!
Oh my… that little yellow coat is absolutely adorable. I can’t wait to see it finished.
oh so much for you to look forward to! how exciting…
The picture of that little boys room is faboo! Where did you find it?
Hopefully, everyone at your house will be back in good health.
I love all your plans…so many exciting things happening in your life!
Feel better! We have a house full of colds here too. The baby is the most miserable…poor thing.
You need to add “learn to smock” to your list if you don’t already know how. Sweet baby girls must have smocking! And there are such fun modern interpretations these days, although I still prefer the classic smocked bishop on babies. My 7 year old, on the other hand–must kick it up a notch for her!
Have fun with your magazines! 🙂
I’ve been coveting Babar posters like that for our playroom.
Oh, that little baby sweater is beautiful!!! Hope you all feel better soon! Lots of water, lots of rest…maybe watch something comical?
hope your family feels better soon.
it looks like that baby is wearing chenille tights. is that so?
love the bambi and everything else is so sweet!
Oh, I love that bed!! And the pictures on the wall!
I hope you are feeling better soon!
Hope you get over your cold. There’s nothing worse than feeling unwell. Can’t wait to see what you do with the nursery.
Ikea has a great bed that is made from imitation beadboard? It’s like the cutest little nest, it is like a daybed with three sides and then the fourth is open to the room. I am not finding it on their website but my friends just bought it for their 3 year old last week. He loves it.
It had like literally 4 thousand pieces though. But the best part is it has two deep toy storage drawers under it.
Ok and I love the matinee jacket. Love love love.
i hope all the langs feel better soon! beautiful images!
Hi,
I’ve made that sweater for a charity layette set, it is pretty straight forward and quick to make. Hope all the Langs have a swift recovery.
Hope you feel better soon. Love the bambi!
OMG! Costco has the best price ($240.00) for a SHIP bed!! It looks just like a silboat. we are SOOOO getting it for our son but I thought you’d wanna know 😉
colds are going around here as well. so yucky. hope you are feeling better soon. I made one of those deers and it was smaller than I thought. when I made the next one I doubled the size. I love the color of that big boy bed.
I think i’d like a big girl bed like that beautiful blue one!
Absolutely gorgeous! All of it except the cold of course!
feel better soon!
Awww feel better soon! The jacket is too sweet and bambi will be lovely for baby. Getting a big boy bed for our guy was so fun!
Oh that sweater is BEAUTIFUL!! Congratulation on the new little sweetheart that will be entering your lives soon! We are expecting our first little bambino in about EIGHT WEEKS!! Go visit my blog when you have a second and see the amazing 3D photos we just had done!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Very lovely little jacket. Like the edging. I’ve got some lemon wool to make a little jacket (probably in moss stitch), but my little one is 3 mths already so if I don’t get on quickly it will be too late!
I love the sweater and and the bambi. I have almost the same sweater, knit perhaps from a similar vintage catalog sometime in the 1970s. My grandmother started to make it for someone (maybe a future grandchild), but never finished. My mom found it, finished it, and gave it to our youngest daughter a few days after she was born in September this past year. I wrote about it this morning–see my post, if you’re interested. Thanks, and congratulations!!
