Saturday Morning...

...and I'm sitting here, second cup of coffee just finished, listening to the sounds of my children trying to kill one another. Actually, they are battling superheroes, but with all the screaming, you catch my drift.

Have to go shopping for the big Staff Appreciation Day lunch on Tuesday at PS139. Parents volunteer to make lunch for the entire staff at PS139 - last year we had about 70 parents making dishes, this year we've got about 100 which is just great! My baked ziti went last year, which made me feel good. This year, I'll be making baked macaroni so I've got to get the aluminum tray and all the ingredients today.

I think I'll put Will to work this year since he's getting dimissed early so the teachers can enjoy the festivities before going to Parent/Teacher conferences. We need people to hand out the gifts to the staff as they come in, so I'll put him on bag duty. He'll get a kick out of it.

I'll finally see Keira today, so the onslaught of pictures will begin! I'm already searching my magazines and books and websites for the next cute baby pattern. I'm also trying to find something to make the boys. Alex has requested a "great, big, GIANT blankie" so I want to find a fun pattern. Will doesn't like sweaters that much, and the alien illusion scarf I made him a couple of years ago was too long. Maybe I'll make a shorter version.

I've got knitting fever. I think I have spring fever, I just want to do all these projects at once - renovate my apartment, knit an entire wardrobe of clothes and accessories, and read every book in my home. I think I need to narrow down...
