A Few New Changes
A couple weekends ago, my wonderful husband organized 8 of our friends to come over and paint the second bedroom so we can start to convert it into a nursery.
As a bonus (and because we were ready for a change in the living room), they also painted the living room a cheery yellow. :) I love how it looks when the sunlight pours in with its bluer light. The table lamps are a little warmer in color so I've been on the look out for bluer LED bulbs to swap them out.
So far I have a handful of hand-knitted baby items made up (mittens, socks, hats, one blanket and one sweater) but I feel like a slacker that I don't have more sweaters and more longies made up.
I also keep thinking I need to make a few outfit pieces (sweater dresses/jumpers and sweater vests).
What item(s) would you most recommend I make a priority to knit before baby is here? Is there something that you are so happy you made and use all the time or highly recommend now that you have a little wisdom under your belt? Please let me know!

Lots of knitted socks + mittens |
