In the beginning of January, I learned that my friend Jules was pregnant with triplets – and due in March. I started crocheting in a hurry – trying to make 3 baby sweaters, 3 hats, and 3 pairs of booties, calling it my “Ambitious Project. The end of January, I was done with all the sweaters – and had started on the hats – as her due date neared.

Well, today, the hats are complete, complete with little embellishments and because Jules did have the babies early – they were born about 10 days ago (beautiful healthy little girls – despite being 6 weeks early) – I decided to pass up on doing the baby booties in favor of getting these in the mail last Thursday (I didn’t want to spoil the surprise). This way, my thinking is that the girls will have some new outfits – just in time to arrive home. They are nicknamed, in order of the photos in this post, Transitions, Spring Garden, and Petrol & Pink.

So, here’s my “completed” project – despite the fact that I haven’t done the baby booties – Jules (you beautiful baby momma, you!)- I Owe You 3 more of something for the girls – you just let me know what you’d like/need.

** Side note ** The time between the “update” and today’s post – I worked two 6 day weeks, and another 7 hours of OT at work, as well as saw the Rocky Horror Anti-Valentine’s day show, hit the Wax Museum, visited the Temple Bar Trad Fest Music festival, and started planning on a Charity night Mardi-Gras Party for the benefit of the local children’s hospital. I was told that I don’t ever “just sit still” – and looking back on the last two months – I think it’s true!
