Besides our wonderful 4 Real bloggers'! 
I know this next baby must definitely be a boy, because with all of the girls' pregnancies I was a total craft dropout. Now I can't seem to get enough!
I'm looking for blogs I can peruse for inspiration - sewing, knitting/crocheting, anything like that. I notice many of you posting about them on your blogs, so who are your favorites? 
(editing because I'm a doofus  )

Other than mine  for knitting, Michele's for sewing, Crafty in Coffeeland, House Wren Studio, Kiddley, One Hour Craft and Simple Sparrow are the ones I check everyday ...

Big blush! I'm so sorry Mary, I knew I was missing some 4 Realers...I didn't mean to sound exclusive! I had just been on Michele's site to see the little shoes... I hope everyone here who has a crafty blog will accept my apologies -I've edited my first post now. (and thanks Mary for the other links! )

You are not a doofus -- you're just a goofy pregnant lady!

Well I second and third Mary's and Michele's, but one of my favorites if you like to read is knit the classics this is such fun. You read through the classics and knit a project to go with the book. They are staring a new book soon if anyone is interested!

You've got the last part right, for sure!

Amy, I love Portabellopixie. She makes the most amazingly over the top girly clothes. I love the way she combines fabrics and all the little details she includes. Enjoy!

I visit Cottage Blessings and Our Domestic Church for "crafty" inspiration. I think everyone else covered my other faves, including this Vintage Chica, One Hour Craft and a Number of things. Oh I don't think I saw scrumdillydo on your lists.

I have to second house on hill road - its one of my latest favorites. this vintage chica, for more stuff like portabellopixie, I'd recommend bits and pieces of a happy life. stunning photography and she's part of the sewing group that sews those adorable - boutique/couture - girls clothes. A very simple sewing blog I enjoy is The Sky is Pink. She has six children and, apart from me being amazed at what she accomplishes, its really very simple and practical - though no tutorials.
eta: i forgot. the scent of water is a new favorite of mine, too.
