7 Random Things

1. I love to sew. I don't get much time to do it with two kids, but I love it. I usually have several projects lined up and usually start another before finishing the first.


2. I always have lots of projects going on. Right now, I started a little "love book" for my husband. In it, I write things I love about him. When I get frustrated, with him or anything in general, that is when I make sure to write at least one thing in there. It usually changes my attitude and helps me think through things more clearly. Weird, huh?


3. I love little conversations with Tess. For example:


The oven timer started beeping and Tess came flying around the corner.


Tess: Muffins! Muffins!


Me: Oh, yeah.


Tess: OH YES!!!!


4. I love to bake. Cookies, breads, pies, cakes, etc. I have to limit myself to about 1 a week or else I'll never loose the baby weight. :)


5. I want to have a fruit orchard one day. Right now, we have a Loquat tree at the side of our house. (It's like a Kumquat but it has really big seeds.) What I didn't realize before was that there's a lot of work to be done when the tree has fruit. What do you do with all of it?!?!

6. I really enjoy being in the water. Swimming, flailing around...it's all the same. I just like the way it feels. (but I do NOT like to be splashed)

7. I used to be a massage therapist. Maybe after the kids get in school I will be again.

Sesame Street and Camo...

Bubbles with Grandma

Grandma and Grandpa visited us on Saturday and brought some bubbles for Tess. She loved chasing them and we had fun watching her enthusiasm!
