Wow, I had been MIA for five months. Thank you readers if you still subscribe to me. First of, there was that demanding job that I took in July. I was so hungry for promotion that I took the new challenge even though I was already in my second trimester. In a hindsight, it was pretty irresponsible of me to do that to my baby. I worked my ass off every night until 10 pm, including weekend. Luckily, I had a very easy pregnancy, only two leg crams, no morning sickness, though I did have a terrible skin rash for a few weeks.
I worked until a day before my labor, my bub chose to show up two and half weeks early. I wasn’t ready of course but ready or not… I can’t believe that I am a mommy now, it’s kind of cool but terrifying, I have to keep the little man alive…talk about the pressure LOL. Anyway, here I present you my two-month old little man, Benjamin Su. Ben was the best christmas present ever. I went to labor on xmas eve and he showed up a day after xmas, 6 lbs 14 oz. Fast forward two months later, he is now 11 lbs, not bad eh?
Here he was, fresh out of my womb
At one week old wearing handknit sweater and beanie
At two months old, pretty cute if I may say so myself, then again all babies are cute
On the crafty side, I have not done much. I finished a few sweaters for him, a cosette wrap for me and am working on Rocky Coast Cardigan. Sewing is pretty much a thing of the past at least for now. My sewing room is now his nursery. I leave my sewing table, sewing machine and serger in the room. I now use the table primarily as a pumping station. My cutting table is now his changing table, it is too heavy to be moved out and I did not want to spend a gazillion dollars for changing table, it’s all good.






He is precious!! Congratulations. I love him peaking over the blanket. I’ve been MIA too because of my little guy. He was born in November. One day I’ll post again too. My sewing room was sacrificed to the baby as well.
Hi Kristie, thanks and congratulations to you. Do share his picture. How are you doing? I hope you are not too overwhelmed having to care for two kids
arrrh! he is totally adorable! love the handknit sweater and beanie! welcome back to the blog world!
Hi jue, thanks, hopefully I can be a prolific mama like you
Congratulations! I know how hard it is when pregnant with your first child. I did the same thing with working late to make sure my boss knew I was still a hard worker. I’m glad you had an easy pregnancy as well.
Hi Susan, thanks much. Yeah, women nowadays are lucky to have the option to stay home or pursue a career. It’s up to us to manage a well-balanced life, I am terrified how it’ll pan out once I go back to work.
