Notorious Sock Knitters | June 25, 2008
My last credit card purchases from Camp Crow’s Feet are all paid off, so technically I am ready for 09. I already gave myself permission to attend even if all of the new acquisitions aren’t knitted up by then. So Tina and Team Blue Moon, bring it on! I miss my camp-mates and want to sign up!

I already trying to convince Aaron that bringing a 3 month old across country is a good idea… so don’t start sign ups yet!
Hey, Cece, I took a fully nursing 3-month-old to New Orleans (had a meeting, my mom came with to help); then a month later took her to New York for a huge family thing. Totally do-able, and it’s not like you wouldn’t have about 100 willing babysitters/baby-snugglers! She did great, no problems.
Depends on the baby, but 3 months is actually a good time to travel; they’ve got eating down, sleep is fairly regulated, no stranger anxiety yet, they smile a lot, they’re still small and relatively light. They have a lot of ’stuff’, at any age, though. You may need some help with that!
Granted, it may not be easy to convince your husband of all this — but you can tell him from me!
And I’m totally planning on being at camp again too! I’m taking my knitting to Family Camp this summer, but it’s just not the same when you’re the only knitter at camp….
I’ll be there and will snuggle with the baby!
I’d like to request that Camp be schedule ANY other week than tax week next year. I’d LOVE to go, but sadly as an accountant, that is the one week of the year I HAVE to be at work.
I’m ready for camp!! And Cece, count me in for baby snuggling
And then there is Cat Steph and I supremely awesome baby snugglers.
Wait, Wait! Camp for 2009?
Count me in! Can I put it on layaway? This will be hard. I really want to go on Cat Bordhi’s Floating retreat. When is the camp so I can put more money in the jar. I figure if I start now I can swing it- i hope I hope I hope.
I’m so wanting a knitting getaway (from it all!!!)
I’m in!! Will snuggle, too. just as long as the babe doesn’t turn 8 in the blink of my eye…i’d have a million babes if they didn’t grow up and get expensive!
I am so ready for my first time at sock camp! Bring it on!
Hey Cece, are you there? Your little one could be our camp mascot! Imagine suddenly having 80 or 90 new aunts & uncles. You could get some primo knitting time! Only problem I see is that there won’t be anyone to teach ’cause the teachers will all want to be baby snugglers!
Maybe we can have classes/projects geared toward baby socks and or toys. Cece would have to bring another suitcase for all the stuff we make for her baby!
I’m in with Lynae-can it please be after April 15th?????? We accountants need our fun time after tax season.
OK it’s way too early for me to even think about camp but I do plan attending. Have a wedding to get through first. Maybe I can get down to Scappoose when we come out for the wedding?
Cece I traveled from Hartford CT to Omaha NE with a 5 month old and a just turned 2 year old (the one getting married) even had to change planes at O’Hell. So it can be done. (Luckily DH followed later and helped with the flight home.) Happy Knitting, Alice
Don’t any of you Ladies have husbands, that could give you a break..You know you really don’t have to prove anything..Would they take the babies on a Golf or Fishing outing??? When you went back home recharged, full of SPIRT, ready to be Mommy again??? The Family would be overjoyed to have you home again..HAPPY and RELAXED..Talk to Grandma.
Is there a date yet for camp 2009? DH wants to block the week on his calendar for me so I can go. WOOHOO!!!
I would like to come too.
Please let us know what the dates will be.
I’m hoping I can make it to camp again next year. I can’t imagine not going. I have to start saving now. It would be a big help to me too if the week of sock camp didn’t include April 17th — it will be difficult to explain/justify to the DH why I can’t be home for our 5th Anniversary. ;o)
Please give us an idea on the dates!
Sock camp is one reason I signed up for the sock club. I can’t wait to meet you all there. I’ll have a lot of knitting to do before then - but hey- that’s a hardship?
I’ll be there too. Totally recovered from this year and ready to go again, and love to snuggle babies.
Any plans yet for sock camp 2009?
