Miriam's stash of hand-made goodies

These are some bibs that I made for Miriam.  I wanted to take a picture of them before I washed them too many times and the colors fade.  We love these bibs---even though they are HUGE on her---because they are super absorbent.  And while lesser bibs quickly become soaked with milk as Miriam does enjoy squirting you as she drinks---these bibs just soak it all up like it's nothing.  Thank you kitchen cotton yarn---you are the best for stuff like this.

Here are a few of Miriam's burp cloths---they are much loved---for the same reason that we love the bibs.

And this is Miriam's baby blanket---in progress.  You can see that I'm still hung up on the owls.  It's almost finished!

And here is the baby blanket I knit for Miriam when we were matched with C.  We enjoy it because it's big enough for Mommy or Daddy to snuggle up with the baby girl too.  (FYI--don't worry--we never put Miriam on her tummy to sleep---we know all about the "Back to Sleep" stuff---she's just posed for a special picture here)

And this blanket was---woven I think---I can't really tell how it was made---it doesn't seem to be knit or crochet---but it's beautiful regardless.  The blanket was made by Miriam's great-great grandmother.  Great Aunt Judith sent this to us when Miriam was born.  How lovely is that?

And here's Miriam sporting one of the hats that Lynn made for her.  Adorable, right?  Yeah, we know.

And here's Miriam stylin' in one of the bibs that her Aunt Kelly cross stitched for her.  Aunt Kelly sure does know how to make a girl feel special.  :)

And so does Nana---check out Miriam's blanket with Noah's ark cross-stitched with meticulous love and care.  Thanks Nana!  :)
