Heel Problems and Nightmares

The weather has been so gloomy. I had another nice weekend at home. Hunter and I made cookies as we have been doing every weeekend for the past couple of months. I made progress on Hunter's sock. I had a bit of trouble on the heel. The instructions did not seem to make sense. I ripped it back and tried again. I followed the intstructions and turned my knitting yet there wasn't enough stitches on the needle for the stitches called for in the pattern. Therefore, I pulled out a book and looked at another sock pattern. Then I kind of did a combination of the two patterns. I only have about 1 1/2" to go on the foot and then I can work on the toe. Now that I see the other parts of the sock, I am having regrets that the leg is so long. I tell myself that it is okay, I have gone this far an am not ripping it back, I will just finish this pair and the next pair I make will be shorter. However, being as anal as I am about things, the length of the leg still bothers me.
I have the urge to rip it back to shorten the leg.

I have decided that my next project will be a pair of matching socks for little Hayden.

Hunter talks in his sleep. He calls out for me and asks me to pick him up in his sleep. I think he is having anxiety dreams because he is not the center of my attention as he was when he was the only little one. It is breaking my heart. I spend time with him. I read to him. Last night we watched a Star Wars episode and I had him sit on my lap while Hayden sat on my dh's. Hunter didn't take his daily nap and became little bratty. He got in trouble because he wouldn't let go of my knitting. Later he go into trouble because he was pulling my hair (hurting me) and wouldn't let go. Maybe that set off his nightmare for the evening. I hate to see my baby in such turmoil at night. I wish I could split myself into three people. One to work, cook and do chores. The other to play with Hunter. The last one to play with Hayden.
