We be knitting fools

We like to make our kids something homemade for Christmas and this year I learned how to knit. I use a loom and it is sooooo easy. I even learned how to make a scarf on a loom as well. With the super bright hats we let the girls pick out their own yarn for my first hats. They are really bright, but they love them. I made the cute fuzzy hats below them for their Christmas presents, they are now wrapped up under the tree. It is hard to see in the picture, but there are black fuzzy hats too for ladies and a manly hat in the back of the picture. I did make a hat to go with the scarf, but I left it at grandma Beth's house.
Kade decided to try out making some hats and here is the proof. He makes good manly hats. He is more creative than I was with his cool stripes. It looks even better when he wears it, but everything looks good when he wears it.
Kade was caught in the act. He noticed I was snaping the picture and threw the loom to the side, but he didn't take the hook out of his mouth in time. Oh, his eyes are doing much better and he can see nearly as well as he did before, he can only tell how bad his vision is when he puts on his glasses. His left eye should be all the way healed in about 5 months. We are very happy with the progress. He also has finally been able to get down in the 100's with his blood sugar, but not consistantly yet. It is amazing how stress on the body will affect blood sugar.
Yes, I did sneek in a picture. My husband is so multitalented!
