welcome to our world!


goodie, goodie gumdrops! i've got a new great niece!


let me introduce to you Callidora Daphne Nackos, born thursday, november 21st at around 3:15 pm, weighing 7 lbs. 9 ozs., and measuring 19 1/2 inches from head to toe! 
truly a bundle of joy!
and life would not be complete for a new bambino without the following accoutrements:
a 'snuggle bug' quilt, slippers and a newborn hat!


the quilt is made of flannel, perfect for keeping baby warm while napping
 and so washable in case of accidents!



the slippers are knit from leftover bits of sock yarn. this yarn is shepherd sock by lorna's laces in the colorway 'flamingo stripes'. the pattern is 'magic slippers' and is a freebie on ravelry. a quick and easy knit to keep those little toes warm!



and to keep the little 'noggin' warm, a 'newborn hat', knit from the pattern i shared last year. once again, knit in the same leftover sock yarn as the slippers. 
sooooo pink - sooooo perfect for a perfect little lady!
sooooo happy to be able to cover her from head to toe!
welcome to our world, callie!
