a few good things

Posted on June 29, 2007

1. went to Barnes and Noble with the girls, bought two kid books and one scrap magazine, found gift card left over from Christmas, barely spent a dime.
2. Parker crawled across the room chasing a balloon! She’s officially crawling (when she wants to!) I am so proud of her! Tomorrow we break out the video camera!
3. Tracy and the kids came over, the kids love LOVE playing togther, got to hang with Tracy.
4. Bailey struggled to fall asleep after being so excited to have friends over, went up to rock her, we sang together (she is now singing with me!) and she fell asleep in my arms…she’s almost two and the days of her falling asleep in my arms are just about over…cherished this time tonight.
5. Got my Usborne box of goodies tonight! Lots of books and lots of reading to get ready for my first show coming up in KC. So excited about this new venture. WANT TO HOST A PARTY?!?
6. Tracy came back over without kids and we talked Usborne tonight… thanks for all the support Trac! Love hanging with her!

What I love about my life is all the little things that add up to make it so good. I am extremely blessed and try to recognize that each and every day.

Tomorrow Kelsey is coming over to watch the girls all day so C and I can work in the yard in preparation of Bails bday party a week from tomorrow. Then I have set up at Emmanuel for Crewsapalooza (if you don’t go to Emmanuel I’m not explaining what that is b/c it’s too much) all afternoon and the event itself most of the day Sunday. Busy weekend. TGIF?

Lately I’ve been running for three reasons, 1. I’m starting to gain all my baby weight back 2. I’m inspired by my studly husband who’s been running a lot and 3. my mom got me these new amazing shoes.
And do you love the pink socks? They support the Susan Komen Race and I love that you can see the pink through the shoes! While we’re looking at shoes, check out Bailey’s new shoes too!

Good thing I had them measure her feet b/c she was a size and a half bigger than the shoes she’s been wearing! I won’t mention that MY feet were an entire size larger also. Damn pregnancies.

See that cute chair? Post brought that over for Bails the other night, thanks Post!!!

Anyway, so I’ve been running lately after dinner, baths, bedtime and chores. I try to hit the streets while it’s still light and before I’ve started a craft project. Tonight there was thunder rumbling, but it’d been doing that for hours so I ignored it and went out anyway. Big, yet fun, mistake.

Notice how wet I am? (Please don’t notice the cleavage shot! Sports bras do that to me, I wasn’t trying to be a sexy runner I swear!) Isn’t getting caught in the rain fun? When it’s summer and hot weather that is. I’ve been caught before in cold weather and I think I cried the whole way home that time. This time I jumped in puddles, walked a little, sprinted a little and just overall enjoyed myself! It’s like the adult version of running through the sprinkler. If only there was a slip n’ slide included I would have been in heaven!

I tried taking a pic of the rain drops, but it didn’t turn out great:

Oh well, trust me, it was raining! Hard.

I’m working on some scrappage tonight. Love that. Go create!
