Another Afghan and Gifts for my GodChildren

This afghan is for Lynan's new baby (due in Feb.)!

 

These are the gifts for my Godchildren:  Sierra (who turned 7 yesterday), Savannah (who will be 5 next month) and Logan (almost 2 1/2)!

Hello, thank you for stopping by the OneBlog. It was our pleasure ti have you...



To answer your question: I think Kaitlyn and your 12yo/11yo are plenty old enough to watch LOTR. The only scary images are the orcs, cavetroll and Ringwriaths... and maybe the scene with Gollum.



All of our young children (9,7,and 3) watch LOTR, except our 3yo (He turns his head when the scaries come on if we catch him). Ours little grew up watching LOTR for 5yrs now so they are used to it. It's considered a family movie in our house.



When I first saw it I was a little frightened by the orcs but as we watched I learned that aren't real and couldn't hurt me... now they're just movie props...



reading the books might help as well if they're scared at all. ;-)



Thanks again!

Namarie,

Alatariel, elf maiden

Hey! That's my afghan! Thanks again for it! Can't wait to wrap him up in it!

We've all seen LOTR here too.

Your afghans are so pretty! thanks for stopping by my blog.
Garlic makes breast-fed babies gassy, which makes them scream all day- I've made that mistake. But the alfalfa, now that's worth a try, thanks for the tip.
And yes, it was a Pampered Chef cookie press. We didn't have any real issues with it, but there is a learning curve with any cookie press in my opinion. The cookies don't always take an even number of 'clicks' and you just have to kind of get a feel for it... some are 1 1/2 clicks... don't despair, try, try again... and have fun with it!
enjoy them,
ali

My name is Christina. I am 38 years old and have been happily married to my best friend, Russ for over 18 years! My username is quietcajun, but I am neither quiet, nor cajun! The nickname is based on my children's initials! The first four children are: Kaitlyn (16), Jordan (14 next month), Ian (12.5), and Noah (10 next month)... put their first intials together and you get KJIN (cajun). Sarah Hope is one of our babies in Heaven and Hannah (8 in September) is my youngest (so far). Put S and H together and you get SH as in SHHHH... QUIET. Get it? Thus, quietcajun! We are in our 12th year of homeschooling. We have tried public school, but we soon realized how important it is that they be HOME at all costs. Now we are back to having them all home again! It's not always easy, but it is for the BEST! Two of our children have Asperger's Syndrome. That is an adventure in itself. We are still learning! This blog is a place for me to sort out the daily joys and challenges of life as a mother and wife as I strive to love and know God more and bring GLORY to HIM in EVERY part of my LIFE!!!!
