What I made in 2014: Hugo!
I'm just cracking myself up over here with this one. I MADE A BABY THIS YEAR! This week my blog feed (Bloglovin is my favorite way to read blogs now, I love the daily email digest) is loaded with sewing blogs posting their "what I made in 2014" roundups. So I started to look for projects that I'd sewn this past year to maybe do a similar post, something like my 2013 or 2012 end-of-year roundups (which, by the way, are both quite impressive and started to make me feel a little bad about this year), and then started to realize hmmmm...why was I less productive, what DID I do this year? OH YES THAT'S RIGHT I MADE A BABY. And then I realized it's been forever since I posted any Hugo pics. So without further ado, my big "project" of 2014...HUGO!

Truly though, I can't believe that the last time I posted a monthly Hugo pic he was three months old! He is now 9.5 months old. UM WHERE DID THAT HALF YEAR GO?!? I would also like to know how other fecund bloggers have managed to post month-by-month photos of their babies, seriously, because it is ridiculously hard. I'm starting to suspect they just take ONE photo, put it through a magic Photoshop-baby-aging-filter, and then set it to autopost each month. So let's start where I left off and see what he looked like at 4 months:

OK. So definitely not the BEST baby-propping skills here. And then Clementine stepped into the photos so that was the end of that...

I want to say more about this guy, how easy and happy he is, how he is at the bottom of the percentiles for weight so we keep having to go back to the Dr for weight checks ARRRG, how he just got over a month of chest colds and croup that made me sick with worry, how his brother and sister just think he's the bees knees and how much he lights up when they are around...but if I try to be comprehensive I'm never going to get this post finished, and then it will be ten months, so I'm just going to post this thang so you can enjoy the pics. Let me leave you with another favorite, Hugo in his Halloween costume:

GAAAAH! I know I am hopelessly biased but I just think he is SO. stinking. CUTE!! Sorry that's probably really annoying. The baby lobster costume just cracks me up.
Please do not pin or repost pictures of Hugo -- the one exception is that I don't mind if you pin the mosaic (1st image). Thanks!
