Which means that yesterday was his big b-day bash. The cake was tasty, and more was eaten this time around.
He made out with the presents... again. Here's him driving (yes I just said a 2 year old was driving) his Gator. 
Can't tell you how jealous I am that he has a Gator and I don't. Need to talk the school into getting me one. And just so Mr. Mason doesn't feel unloved, here he is in all his cuteness.
Seriously. Cute. So in the car on the way back from the party, I finished sewing in the ends of the first "Toe Up with a Difference" socks. AKA -Charm socks, because the third pattern's a charm with this yarn. That's right, this is the 3rd pattern I've attempted with this yarn. And I finally have a winner. Love the pattern, love the yarn. Yay.
I'm also very close to finishing the Noro socks. Like, finish them tomorrow at SnB, close. Yay! The goal was to get these done before vacay - and I will. Which, means new socks for vacation knitting.Speaking of vacay - the countdown is on! T minus 4 days. Well, 5 if we're counting how many days until I'm actually on the beach and not just out of the hometown. Which means that blogging will cease for a week. A strict luggage rule is being enforced, and only one laptop is being permitted in the car, and it's not mine. And seeing as Dad will have work stuff and Ellie will have school stuff... I'm not thinking that blog stuff is going to rank very high. But I'll try.
And so I'll leave you with some photos from last week. I did some puppy sitting for BFF Bridget. And my favorite thing about Seamus sitting, besides Seamus, is this...
The view from their neighborhood park. I love walking down and looking at the lake and letting Seamus run wild.
He likes it too.
