The Nomad Simple Baby Pullover 8/6/2014
* This is the back. I did a bit of basket weave stitch although it is not in the pattern. I loved knitting this baby! I have to decide on buttons. The yarn was Chesapeake in a cotton blend. I think I used 3 tiny skeins. The three button band comes together when you switch to knitting in the round and it confused me. I don't think I did it correctly but It works.
*Al's elephant buttons are too big, but I like the creamy color and will look for buttons at 3 Bags later today. I have ends to weave in and I want to wash and block it. Oh yeah, I'm casting on another asap! I don't have a baby in mind to give this to yet….but they pop up all the time don't they?
*Zach's dog bite is healing. Thanks for all your concerns.
*Drinking all that water every day is harder than I imagined. I have 20 ounce bottle and I am trying to drink 100 ounces a day. The most I've accomplished is 80 ounces. Guess what? I don't get up at night any more often ….
I guess I was less hydrated than I thought. I hope I look very cool carrying my bottle around.
*Finally, I bought some bra's on Amazon. Seriously I did. They didn't fit. What a shocker. Their return was the easiest thing I could imagine. They even picked it up from my step. Who knew? Did you?

The baby sweater is adorable. Lots of new babies around me this year.
Love the sweater. I need to check out the pattern.
I had no idea you were such a heavy drinker! LOL.
Once I find a bra that is comfortable, I stick with it too...until, like Nancy said, it's discontinued...which happens too OFTEN!!
I live by Amazon and have sent things back with ease many times. I love their Prime membership's free shipping! Oddly, I DO order bras from them because I wear the Genie Bras and they fit pretty much no matter what.
I'm getting ready to order some bras from Amazon and hope they fit okay. I stick to the same one I've worn forever, and so far they've not been discontinued.
I have ordered from Amazon for bras. I ordered ones that I have bought from brick & mortar stores though.
I get mine from Kohl's and Carson's mainly now. I have to try them on because of costochondritis and the constriction.
As for staying hydrated I most always have water with me. Four summers ago I had three kidney stone surgeries in 8 weeks--my summer from He(double hockey sticks). It was awful pain and I have not forgotten.
The doctors have stated though that between 60-75 ounces is a good amount to shoot for. I try to keep it more towards the higher amount. Like I said I do not want to go through that again.
That's a lot of water! Do you slosh when you walk?
I absolutely have to try on bras before buying. (Especially now that the girls are migrating so far southwards due to middle age.) Nothing fits any more. *sigh*
Glad Zac is healing.
Bras on Amazon? LOL!
Bras on Amazon. I wouldn't have thought of it, but it makes sense. I had to return a ring on Amazon, because I ordered the wrong size. It was super easy.
