though this is super non-important… I’m trying to focus on the fun and the good this week. (keyword: trying… not necessarily succeeding). These happened to come to mind: because pretty much i love how refreshingly minty these are in this pasty hot summer. …and because I got them for 42 cents a package at Costco. […]
I’ve been wanting to make some floral hair clips for our new girlie babe and for Hannah. Today was the day. During quiet time I sat in bed, watched a movie, and cut and glued and such. It was hard to get a decent photo of them (especially the white one), but such is life. […]
Oh, how I love color… especially during the dreary winter months. I came across Design Seeds website via Pinterest. I love all the color combinations. One thing I noticed is that often I didn’t initially see some of the colors in the photo. Isn’t color fabulous!
Blogggggggging… didn’t so much happen this week. But each day I wrote a mini summary. Looks like I was a grouch most of the week – nice. Luckily there were lots of helpers to cheer things up for the tots. The week sure ended better than in started. Sunday… Hot… and swollen. Yes, swollen. Yummy […]
{re·spite} : noun : an interval of rest or relief So – why would I need a Respite from my resting. Laying low and trying to stay off your feet as a mama is one hard thing to do. It drives me crazy. Yes, it’s good and it might help me make it to 38 weeks […]
I wanted to note a new traditional we started this summer… to go along with Morning Devotional. It is one of my favorite things that we’ve done this summer. My friend Jackie Day shared this vision and idea with me. I think it all began when she read President Benson’s ‘Flooding the Earth with the […]
…said little Max while laying on my lap and gazing up at me. “Bye Wooby” said little Max to my belly as I headed out the door to a doctor’s appointment. Who’s Wooby? Abe used to be stuck on the name Lily for our baby. Then, when he realized we weren’t going to name her […]
Up! Up! and Away… we went to Herriman to see the UP house remake. It isn’t open until the Parade of Homes (which we’re soooo not paying for)… but the kids thought it was so fun to see the outside. Bangerter homes came up with such a cute idea to build this home. They even […]
We’ve been keeping things a bit mellow this week… trying to enjoy summer break at home. Occasionally Hannah and Abe mention that we’re not doing super cool “real” summer things. Hannah said something like, “I mean… we haven’t even gone to disneyland yet.” Ummm yah – we never talk about going to Disneyland. I’m not […]
… and sure enough…there was an eye in his nose. That would be a little google eye (the kind you glue on crafts) stuck in his nostril. I’ve never had a child stick something in his/her nose/ear until today. Luckily, as I was running (as fast as an 8-month prego lady can run) to get […]
