Yep, that title should get me a few extra hits on Google. It’s probably a good thing I moderate my comments...
This past Friday, Iain and I had some errands to do in New Minas. Naturally, we included a trip to my LYS (Gaspereau Valley Fibres) for some SEX (see this post for a description of what SEX means on a knitting blog. I’ll wait. Back yet?). Each time I visit the shop, I mean to take pictures of the interior to show you all. This time was no exception but, unfortunately, Iain has finally hit the age where sitting in his stroller in a knitting store just isn’t good enough and letting him run loose is a little more than my pocketbook can handle. Therefore, I had to try and be quick (and if that isn’t frustrating in a knitting shop, I don’t know what is).

Iain really enjoyed the animals. He was particularly taken with the chickens. They seemed to be just as interested in the little human as he was in them.
As for the stash, well, I mentioned that it was a little difficult to shop with Iain. Therefore, I ‘only’ bought six balls of ‘old faithful’ (Mission Falls wool), which I love and in pretty spiffy colours if I do say so myself. I'll show you a picture tomorrow (I have to save something interesting for the rest of this week!). I also walked away with a skein of Blue Sky Alpaca’s organic cotton (the same yarn as called for in the pattern for my Nursing Sweater) to make a couple of things for a friend’s new baby due at the end of the month.

I really did read your whole post ... honestly I did. The cute and absolutely adorable pictures of your little man have made me forget everything except SEX and chickens ... and I'm pretty sure those two things have nothing to do with one another. LOL
cute pics! very sweet!
What great pictures! I love to look at tiny little people walking around farms. (no really, I really do.. I have one memory of my daughter, no bigger than Iain in this post, running off through a pasture, no fear at all)
Also, that shot of the chickens is really cool. I think I'd frame it and put in on my wall - even though I usually have a strict aversion to farm animal photos on walls, that one is really neat.
