I'm Back!!!!!!!

I went away for a weekend with friends and my in-laws and though I had some bright ideas as to things to make/do it seemed like all of my crafting energy and creativity had been sucked away! I bought fabric and yarn. . . but it's sitting unused, untouched in my crafting space. I started working on a summer poncho which is 1/2 completed, but I'm just not motivated to finish it. It's seeming to take forever! This may be due to the fact that me and the boys are sick again. Colds and allergies but it's bringing us down. Also after a trip it seems like my house is rising up in rebellion so I've felt like I've been playing catch up all week just to get it back to being presentable.

Anyway my point is tonight I've been laboring over what my little M would wear on his piggies in lieu of shoes. He kicks off everything that he possibly can so short of putting things on that cut off his circulation he finds a way to remove them. I wanted some sandals for him but since he's not walking yet hated the idea of strapping him into 1/2 inch thick plastic soles that will conform his little feet into the shape of shoes. . . I decided he NEEDED me to crochet some sandals. I started to work on the sole and worked on a couple of variations for the top. I like this one. I now just need to figure out exactly what I did to duplicate the 2nd. LOL. Since it's after midnight I'm not thinking so clearly so this will be a project for another day/evening. I was sneaky and slipped this little puppy on in his sleep! He was none the wiser, but since he was sleeping I don't have the test as to whether or not he could possibly kick them off.
