FO - the Boy
Okay - Christmas family projects are beginning to get done.
I’ve decided that since the Girl asked for a bag (completed, btw)
and - the Boy asked for a specific hat - now completed (check behind the cut - don’t let him peek, mama!)
well, I would make ALL of the rest something (hats) as well. That’s five more to complete. I finished the Pup’s today and will show a picture of it tomorrow. Well, it’s all but finished. I still have a seam to do at the top and it will be done.
The hat is a cutie - and I just may make it for all of the others as well.
How many others, you might be asking?
Well, I am the proud gramma of 7 gorgeous grandkiddos. The Boy is the oldest at nearly 16 (March). The Girl is next at 13 (14 in August). The Pup is the youngest of that family at 8 (9 in May). They are all Lessa’s kiddos and live just two doors away from us - at one time our other daughter and family lived on our street as well and we threatened to petition for a name change to . . .
Family Way.
Hahahahaha - we crack ourselves up.
Back to the progeny:
Ladybug’s family has D-Man who is now 11 (Nov. 19th), TAT who is now 9 (Nov. 20th), Kinziebug who is 6 (7 in February) and Zaiah who is 3 (4 on Valentine’s Day).
I bought HUGE needles to do the Pup’s hat - size 19!! And, I spent $16 on them because they were the good wooden needles. But, they’ll last forever, right? Now, if I could just find another project for them.
Hahahahahaha - there I go again - cracking myself up!
On to the Boy’s gift . . . Lessa, turn his little head.
modeled by the Grandpa - who just loves it and has asked for one just like it. 
Doing the mouth was interesting - it’s been so long since I’ve done embroidery, I had to search online for the directions for a split stitch.
Here it is rolled up - likely the way it will be worn for the most part. Or maybe not.
and - just for fun - Paw-Paw added his hat on top of the Boy’s hat.
Wear it in good health, Sweetcake! (that’s the Boy’s nickname - not the hubby’s, btw)

HAHAHHAHA! OMG I love it! That is most awesome - both the BOy and the Girl will be pleased as punch with theirs, and I’m sure the pup will be too!
