It's a Boy!

Welcome to the world little Nolan Lloyd!

Our good friends Dr. D & A welcomed their first child into the world this weekend! Ry & I are so excited for them and look forward to many more funny stories of parenthood (already Dad has almost been peed on!)!

Mommy A is my hero. This little guy was almost 10 lbs! She is a strong lady and Nolan is lucky to have such great parents!

We hope to come visit you all in the midwest sometime in the next few months!

Nolan was the first to receive one of the hand-knitted baby blankets that I have been working on this year (aka "The year of the baby"). Because I had previously made his mom a scarf out of green Wool Ease, I decided that he needed a blue blanket made of Wool Ease Thick & Quick. For all of you knitters out there -- I totally recommend it! It's machine washable, not itchy, and it is a super quick knit. The pattern is just a diagonal baby blanket knit on size 15 needles. I loved it so much I had to run out and buy more of this yarn!

Hope you enjoy your blankie, Nolan! Be good for Mom & Dad!
