gnome


It's almost Halloween. Sofie's FIRST Halloween! When I was pregnant with her I saw a picture of an adorable baby dressed up as a gnome for Halloween and I thought, oh yes, this baby of ours will need to be a gnome. Originally, I had thought we would be a family of gnomes (nerd), because how fun is that?? Seriously. But between buying a house, taking care of a baby and trying to start a small business... ummm... there's been no time for costumes. Other than Sofies, of course.

So here she is. My mom made her the little tunic before she left, I attached the beard and Matthew & I constructed her little hat. I've been trying to knit her a red gnome hat and I'm a bit disappointed in myself that I couldn't manage to finish it. But please refer to above as to why I had to give up on knitting. And Sofie not sleeping for the last month hasn't done much for me or my eyeballs.

We dressed her up and took her down to the market yesterday for a pumpkin festival and kids costume contest. She loved seeing the other kids and fell asleep on the walk home. Success! Happy Halloween!!
