Today was a busy day. I received a call this morning from Regal Lager, the makers of Phil&Teds and they were so sorry to hear of my accident. Susan, their representative, was sweet as can be, and said she was sending out a new stroller frame for me right away. And soon after I got off the phone I received an email confirmation that it had already shipped!Oh, and she said she just had one question. What is up with you and celery?? Ha. And after we got off the phone I needed some right away.
I finished Gray's sweater! Here he is modeling it, complete with robot buttons. I've already started one for the baby, hoping to have it finished before she arrives!
Last night I started having some major contractions every time I stood up. So I did a lot of sitting. Today has been better but I can tell she is moving waaaay down. I went to the store and stocked up, I tell you. Just in case. By the way, did you know that California Pizza Kitchen makes pizzas you can make crispy in the microwave? Yeah. I have a freezer-full now.
Now we wait.
And I also wrote a bit about the waiting today at 5 Minutes For Parenting.
i LOVE my cali pizza kitchen pizzas and they are crispy after cooking in the microwave.
ReplyDeletei also have to confess that everytime i snack on celery i think of you.
I am so glad the stroller company came through for you, that is WONDERFUL news!
ReplyDeleteGray's sweater is so cute. When are you going to start on mine?
I saw a P& T stroller with the doubles kit at the zoo and nearly swooned, it was so cool. (I want one!!! but can't really justify getting a new stroller at this point.) I'm glad their customer service is so helpful, too.
ReplyDeleteLove the robot buttons and that sweater color is gorgeous with his eyes...
yay phill and teds!
ReplyDeleteIt looks SO good, and WOOHOO to the stroller blessing! :)
ReplyDeleteGood job with the knitting! So cute!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm excited for you! I'm sure you won't have to wait long!
It might not be too much longer...
ReplyDeleteCute sweater and very creative thinking with the robot buttons. I bet the one you are making for your daughter will be so adorable! How fun for your children to have something handmade special by their mom.
The sweater is beautiful! It's actually making me think about picking my knitting up again...
ReplyDeleteLove the sweater so cute!!! And contraction it's so exiting!!!!! I hope the wait wont be to long and that everything goes well!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd good new about the stroller!!!!!
Gray looks adorable in that sweater. I had a feeling that stroller would come back to life.
ReplyDeleteYay! Now that's customer service : )
ReplyDeleteMom to mom marketing really works. I'm frugal--and I don't need another stroller--but even I found myself checking out Phil and Ted's just to see what all the fuss was about.
That is great about the stroller. You're gonna need it.
ReplyDeleteCalifornia Kitchen Pizza's, yummmm!
I can picture you blogging during birth. Ha. Can't wait to see her.
how nice about the stroller! and how exciting that the baby is getting ready to come out...yea! love gray's sweater..adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love the sweater! So cute!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome that you are going to be able to fix your stroller!
I saw your twitter a couple days ago about the contractions and was wondering if Ivy had made her arrival. Thanks for the update. That sweater is adorable. The colors are great and the buttons make it perfect. I'm a huge can of the California pizzas. My absolute fave is the margharita pizza! Yumm. Now I may just need to go pick up a couple for lunch today. Happy Saturday.
ReplyDeleteNew stroller, that's great!
ReplyDeleteand sit more too. Knit, eat pizza and keep Ivy in for a few more weeks!
Girl, that is some LUCK you've got on your side!! Happy for you!
ReplyDeleteThat sweater looks perfect on him. It seems to match his eyes so well! Darling!
ReplyDeleteSo happy about the stroller company. How did they know about the celery fetish?

I have just started knitting too! I am working on a sweater and hat for my new baby boy to wear home from the hospital in December . . . and at the rate I am going, I am going to need every day between now and then to finish it.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear you are getting a replacement for the stroller! And celery too funny! Also cute sweater. Can't wait to hear of your baby girl's arrival and see pictures!!!
ReplyDeleteCute sweater! And so nice of the stroller company to take pity on you! That's pretty swell.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with those contractions.
I'm so with you honey. This one might be early with the contractions I've been feeling as of late. And nausea, ugh!!!!
ReplyDeleteCuuute sweater! With robot buttons? Lucky little boy!
ReplyDeleteThinking good thoughts for you!
Gray's sweater looks great! I hope he loves it :)
ReplyDeleteI hope those contractions come to a sweet new baby soon!
What is the deal with you and celery?? ;)
ReplyDeleteI have been having more and more contractions also recently. However, I know they are not near the real thing, just the baby doing his/her job :)
I have most of everything I need...still need to get a few more snacks, but I have my gatorade and emergen-c, so I am good :)
I am really excited to see which of us goes first. Then we can set up our kiddos...I am pretty sure mine is a boy :)
He is just the cutest kid ever! I can't imagine how cute this girl will be...I'd say super unbelieveable cute! LOL
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing, Steph. That sweater is cute, and great news about the stroller. And I too think of you whenever I eat celery. I just had to have some yesterday, and I know you can relate to that. Today I found out that celery with Trader Joe's chipotle pepper hummus is incredible! God bless my friend who showed up on my doorstep with a bag of Trader Joe's goodies this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteLove that sweater.
ReplyDeleteYay! You get the stroller.
Okay, how do I get myself into knitting? I've crocheted, but it just isn't as cute...
I love those pizza's! And I love the sweater that you knit! Wow.
ReplyDeleteHow neat that they're sending you a new frame! And the sweater is SOOO stinkin' cute!
ReplyDeleteAdorable sweater!
ReplyDeleteLove the sweater!
