7 month milestones

• this pic was taken almost a month ago....

Baby Boy was sitting up like this with his hands right after he turned 5 months. Of course now he can sit up very well. He is very close to crawling right now, too. For a month now, at least, he has been getting where he wants by rolling, scooching, & pushing with his legs. He can now push up all the way on his hands & knees. He surprised me a couple of days ago by pushing himself up to a sitting position from lying on the floor.

Both of the girls sat up at 5.5 mos & started crawling around 8.5 months. My little boy seems to be in quite a hurry.

I have been crocheting a lot lately, thanks to too much coca cola & wakeful nights, ha ha. I don't mind. I made a little baby blue & cream afghan for a friend's baby shower. I forgot to take a pic of it :(. A couple of people surprised me by asking if I would make some for their flea market booth, or if I would make them to sell. I was extra surpised because it was soo plain, mostly double crochet. I made it the size of a receiving blanket & got it done in less than a week, so now I am thinking & wondering if this is something I can or should do. How much should I charge? I mean, with items like that there is no way to even earn minimum wage if you counted the hours.

Mostly I make things to give away & this is the first request like this I have had. So someone buy me a Dr. Pepper & I will happily sit up at night & crochet you a little something.
