Hi everybody,
I just wanted to let you know, that I'm not well at the moment. Actually I'm really unwell and I will seek help soon. I have seen my ob-gyn and she and I decided, that I need to see a specialist. If you want to know more, please send me an email or contact me via ravelry/hobbyschneiderin.
I'm blessed with an awesome husband and great parents and in-laws, who help me with the kids thru this troubled time.
So, please don't be mad, if I don't post for a while. I'm just not knitting or sewing. I'm also not spinning....
Hugs

1 month!
Hi everybody,
the twins are over 1 month old already. Heiko will be back at work tomorrow. I hope, that the two and I will get along alone too... *sigh* We have entered the phase "crying for an hour in the evening" already. I hope, they won't do that during the day or I will be walking A LOT.
But the two are growing well and are darn cute, even if I say so myself.
BUt I promised more pictures of gift.
One really really cool gift we got, is a quilt from my sewing friends. 17 women worked on the fairytale quilt. They started in Feburary and the quilt was finished short before the delivery. Every one of them wrote a bit for a book, that came along with the quilt. you can find the story and detailled pictures here (in German but the pictures are great, even if you can't read German. The kids love the quilt:
There are more gifts here, but I need to take good pictures of them too.
But I can also share an FO. The socks for my midwife are done and already with the new owner ;)
Pattern: Waving Lace socks from "Favourite Socks"
Yarn: 74gr Araucania Ranco Multi
Needles: 2mm circular needle
size 40 European
The pattern is pretty easy but not too boring. Perfect for my not up to its standard brain :)

Quick update
Just a quick update :) without any pictures.
We are doing pretty well around here since Heiko still has time off from work. With 2 adults the twins are still enough work but manageable. Feeding and diaper-changing takes around 7-8 hrs per day alone, so we try to get things like washing clothes and cleaning the house done during the sleep-breaks. So far the kids sleep pretty well but I guess, that might change soon too ( I bet, as soon as Heiko starts working again next week *sigh*)... The twins now both have over 3 kg of weight, which makes me happy (the estimated day of delivery was Tuesday...) as they have gained 700gr each since we left the hospital!
There's already a lack of sleep for me, so the only project I was working on, where the socks for my midwife. These were finished tonight in our 1hr tv-break, that we try to get each day, just to get the head cleared. I hope, that I will be able to post pictures soon.
I got some more lovely handmade gifts to show and I designed a preemie-hat for a contest. I need to take pictures soon too, since the last day of the contest is August 31st (if you want to participate too, please listen to the Knitmoregirls podcast!).... So hang in here!
