You always know pregnant people and I have a few friends pregnant right now. But this time it's really strange. I know seven- count them, 7- people who are pregnant right now and all of them are due this summer. What was going on 7-8 months ago? That would make it October. Huh. Anyhow, even stranger, every one of them is having a boy. What are the odds? I read somewhere once that out of 100 births, there are 55 girls born to every 45 boys. Maybe boys are making a comeback.

One of those pregnant people is a really good friend from college and I'm making a blanket for her. I was holding out until I knew the sex of the baby, so fortunately for me, the kid cooperated at her ultrasound. I promised (threatened) pictures of my projects, so here's what I have so far. I fully admit, I stole the idea of mixing 2 different colors (blue and white in this case) from a friend, and I think it's turning out pretty well. And, I still have 2 months to finish it. Yea me.
