Blip isn't agreeing with IE9 this week. Now that I've got Foxfire the video is up. Sorry for the delay.

Congrats on finishing the blanket! It looks really good.
I'm a little jealous of the baby movements you are feeling - I only feel a slight tickling sensation (I'm 19+6 today).
Have a great week :)
