Baby things...pregnant friends...

So, recently I have been bitten by the crafting bug. This may have been partly due to the fact that I want to ignore the impending remodel of my kitchen and consequent upheavel of my house or that I want a new distraction just as the new semester starts....either way I have really enjoyed coming up with new projects and new things to create. However, I have a consistent problem that won't let go...I still don't know the gender of my coming little baby!
This particular problem, though slight in the grand scheme, is a problem for me nontheless...I really want to make some baby things; blankets, taggies, onesies with cute appliques, etc. But, I either can't get the fabric I really want to get because it's gender specific or I can't start on the appliques because I don't know if I'm having a girl or a boy. And honestly, there's only so much stuff that I want to make to give to other people's kids...

In the baby world, I have made some new pregnant friends! It's kinda fun actually... They are both in my night classes. One is due in May and the other is due in March. I'm really excited to know more pregnant people! It's nice to be able to talk to someone else about what is going on. I have 2 friends who just had boys in the last few months, my husband's cousin is due in March with her first girl and the list goes on and on...
