Bit of dyeing fun

When we found out I was pregnant we bought a load of white sleepsuits.  Partly because they were a load cheaper than patterned ones and partly because I planned to dye them.  Then Rosemary turned up early.

Now I get some time between feeds I have started to dye them.

Plain suit for reference:


Attempted "bullseye" style (needs to be a bigger item)




Scrunched up, randomly banded, and soaked in dye:




Rolled top to bottom then dyed magenta with blue and blue with magenta:


Rainbow!



I didn't quite make the dyes strong enough so this batch came out a little pastel.  The second batch on the line is most definitely stronger.

Sleep

I'm going to be sharing a lot of Rosemary photos on here, mainly because it keeps the whole family up to date and partly because, well, she's cute!

She's been doing the typical baby habits of eating, sleeping, and making waste.  I love taking sleeping baby photos, the milk coma look is fantastic!

One with Dad:

 She curls up tight when I pull the cover off in the morning.  Taking after Mum.

Various milk-induced comas.  Grandad Harrison can relate to these; warm, well-fed, and comfy.








If you look on her at the right time, you can even catch Zonked (capital Z definitely earned!)

Sometimes Mum is caught with the camera and given a Look:



We do have wakeful times too, but I'm usually too distracted saying hello.  This time, the VHC came to say hello:



She had her first shampoo experience last week, what a lot of hair!
/>
She also got to try Mummy's knitting.  Socks!


Turns out she's as good at wriggling socks off as she is hats.  This is why we tend to keep her in sleep suits; anything else requires much redressing.


Daddy quote of the day: (after Rosemary has spit up) I don't understand how you manage to get it so far and so fast...and so quietly! 

Skills, Dad, skills.
