In addition to....



We've had some nice days this week, excepting the wind, but oh how wonderful it is to see the grass starting to turn green!! Gives me hope for flowers, for color, for summer outfits without my SmartWools and Cuddleduds!!

Haven't been posting very much and I have a reason. I'm a mother of a very very ohmyword very busy toddler. At 15 months there is nothing she can't get into and nothing she hasn't tried. This morning I found her in my closet "shopping" which consists of riffling through all my clothes, inspecting them with great intent and throwing them on the floor... in my super tired brain and body, this is harder to keep up with than it was a month ago. No, a week ago. 

How do they change so much, so fast? Still?!

But tired is acceptable I suppose. Zaiya is going to have a brother or sister Oct 19th. I am feeling great, tired, but great. And I'll take tired because with the first monkey I was horribly sick for 7 long months.  

Zaiya found this name book (only she knows where) and has packed it around often over the last 2 weeks. I think she's concerned we don't have an inkling of ideas for names...! She even "reads" it, stopping at a page and seemingly studies it out. Today there was special concentration in the R's. !!!

Happy days to Us!

Congratulations!! I'm so glad to hear you are feeling great minus being tired after you were so sick the first time.

I had a fellow little monkey on my lap when I read your post the other day, so couldn't comment very easily :) I have laughed to myself every day since then about the very very ohmyword very busy toddler. ha! Yes!!! I completely understand!

Love the picture of Zaiya with the name book - how great! :)

So happy for you that this time you're not feeling sick! Makes looking after a toddler a bit easier..
