Post #71


That's right people, I've officially had over seventy posts. I like to look at that number, it makes me feel like I've accomplished something. Stay tuned for post number ninety-five, it will have an announcement about post number one hundred that will be very special indeed!

So this weekend is blissfully un-scheduled. Which is good seeing as we leave on Wednesday for the Grand Canyon Camping Trip, and have yet to figure out if our gear will fit in one checked bag and three carry-ons. Wish us luck, I'm interested to see how it all pans out. The Mr. and I are headed to the gym tomorrow morning and then he and LN are going to have a Daddy/Daughter Date. Not sure what they're up to yet, but I'm so happy when they have some extra one-on-one time to bond. Does my heart (and head) good!

Maybe we'll try and hit up the MCAD Student Art Sale. We go every year but this year we don't really have a NEED of anything. However, it's always fun to look! The Mr. bought me a great piece from one of our (now) friends. It hangs in our dining room and was under $100! Great deal!

So that's about it. Well, buying the ingredients for some pies that I'm making for my sister-in-law. I'm sure I'll do some cooking and if I'm lucky I'll have some pictures for a post next week.

TGIF everyone!
Have a great weekend!

Now You See Me, Later You Won't

Although I've been away from this space for quite some time I was surprised to see that people were still reading it.  Go me!  So, although I am not going to be blogging in this space for much longer, I'm going to leave it up for the time being.  If nothing else as a way for people to find me in my next space. Next space you say?  Yes, I'm moving.  When I started this blog things were very different from what they are now.  I thought we were moving abroad much sooner, I was not going to school and there were no definite plans for a second baby.  That being said, the last few months I felt like I was not able to really be comfortable in this space.  So I'm opting to move someplace else, under a different blog name and start again.  I really hope that you will move over with me; I've so enjoyed having you along for the ride! So, sometime soon I will post about my new digs.  As soon as I find the time to put something up over...

Lady in the Sky, With Broccoli

We've had a whirlwind, chaotic, hectic, exciting week.  It was a week of fixes, car naps, quick meals and heat.  Oh, the heat!  I finally feel like today we had the chance to tone things down and take a breath.  The Little Lady and I were left to our devices for the evening while the Mr. took a much deserved night off.  We had a light dinner and then went outside for our favorite pre-bed activity, Bubble Chasing.  (Well, she chases, I blow).  The following conversation ensued. Laying in the grass: MP: Hey LL, look at all those clouds! LL:  Yeah mom, clouds. MP:  What do you see up there?  I see bunny ears! LL:  They just puffy mama. MP: (Humph, this might not work...) LL:  Mama, I see Lady! MP: (Getting excited)  That's great, what's she doing? LL:  Lady in Sky, with Broccoli.  I like Broccoli! MP: Well, yes, it does look like broccoli.  What else do you see? LL:  Poop in a glass.  Ha...

A Confession

First let me come clean.  I'm pregnant. Now, let the next thirty-one weeks commence where I talk of nothing else except my growing belly, appetite and need for Cheetos.  Not really, but I will say this; I'm tired.  So tired that normal everyday tasks that should only take me a few minutes suddenly sit around, unfinished, for days at a time.  Examples?  The dishwasher, the dirty dishes, groceries (the non-perishable ones, duh), folding the laundry, making the bed.  I mean, there are much better things to do, like, stuff handfuls of popcorn in my mouth while watching all the episodes of Angel, in order.  Don't judge me, I am returning to school in a few weeks; maybe this is just me trying desperately to channel myself as a Freshman in college?  Who the heck knows.  What I do know that my "golden time," or nap time as it is commonly called, was once used to clean, cook, tidy up, rest and blog.  Well, you know how much blogging I've done o...
