One Down...

Two to go...

My son chose this cute turtle fabric for his new hat. I love it and it fits perfectly. He specifically asked for, "No Velcro," so this hat is currently strap free. After wearing it to the parade and having it blow off a time or two, he's decided that a chin strap might be a good idea after all. As soon as I get a few minutes I'll be adding that.

We went to the Medical Center earlier this week after S had complained about a headache, and now he has an ear infection and is on antibiotics. Jeez! The doctor also tested him for mono but thank goodness he came back negative! So we are all taking things pretty easy this weekend. How about you, what are you up to?

  1. Cute hat! I'm sending prayers your way for your entire family to be in good health.
    Myself and my DH will be the judges for a burger throwdown on Saturday afternoon. I can't wait. We will be judging 6 different chefs and their creations. Yummy! Then dinner with the family at a fantastically authentic Italian restaurant. I'm hoping to do a little sewing and lots of gardening too.

  5. Glad the little guy is feeling okay. It's such a good mom of you to let him see your wisdom about the strap. Kudos!

  6. I used Simplicity 5581, but I made the brim one inch wider. I also usually add a gros grain ribbon chin strap.

  7. I love the hat. I've been pretty busy this week sitting with my 3 grandchildren. Jakob the oldest has run a fever for a few days. He was better today. I took all 3 to the grocery store today. I forgot how hard it is. But we all went swimming later and the day turned out great. They went home. I'll see them again tomorrow night.
