Babies!! Babies!! Babies!!

Most of my friends are having babies and they are all having girls. No boys!!?? What’s up with that?? The last friend who had a boy was a couple of years ago, only thing popping out around here are all girls, all the time. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m all for us females taking over the world, but why is it that most of them only want to dress them in only pink, pink, pink??? I like pink but one can only take so much of it. Fortunately a couple of my girls don’t want pink so that might save my sanity with all the baby knitting I have to do. I finished a couple of baby sweaters for the BF’s sister, they are for 2 of her co-workers. She brought me the yarn and I spent the past week or so knitting them up. The sweater pattern is easy but is only available through membership in the Babysweaters yahoo group. The hat and booties pattern are found on another site.
