If you know me at all, you know I usually have lots to say, but once sit down to blog, my mind stalls and I only want to add pictures, ya know what I mean? So, I have some photos of little things I've been doing or things that have been going on. So get ready, it might seem like a lot, and even a little random, but in my life it's the little random things that I like the most.
First: Carson's Boards
The AWESOME Jody Luke does vinyl lettering. I knew wanted to put Carson's name in his room, but I had a lot of ideas bouncing around in my head. Jody was so patient with me as I switched lettering fonts, colors and board sizes. She's the bestest!!!
So after cutting the boards and painting (Jody cut and beveled, I painted)....
...we put the letters on and hung them up. BTW this was not all in one day.
Side Story:
When Maeley saw that I was painting she, of course, wanted to paint too. I wanted her to be able to paint, but I didn't want her to make a huge mess. I asked her what color she'd like to paint, and she replied "blue.", so I put water in a cup and added blue food coloring. Tee hee, she didn't know the difference and was happy painting and I didn't have to worry about cleaning up a huge mess.
Second: Carson Sitting Up Our little boy has been sitting on his own for a few weeks. He started doing it while Jace was out of town so I grabbed a few shots to send to him. His favorite place to sit is in the bathroom in front of the mirror. I'm happy that he likes it, but I can never walk away because it's the one place that if he falls he would do some serious damage to himself.
And why is it so natural for a person (Maeley) to want to play with a toy that he/she has had NO interest in for almost 2 years suddenly become so interesting. It's funny how that happens. She was good though and patiently waited for her turn.
Third: Family PhotosAnother AWESOME friend, Meg, did our family pictures. We have lots that we like, but I don't want to post them until we send out our Christmas cards. These ones won't be sent out, but I still love them.
Forth: The Aults Coming
Sarah and Dale (my sister and her husband) came to Boise and had a little get away. As Alwasy we had a blast with them. But something I've never done before, that I got talked into, was cutting Jon's (my nephew) hair. It was crazy because he actually has a full head of hair as opposed to Jace's hair...ya know what I mean? Look mom, I've come a long way since dad first cut Jon's hair, remember?
Anything else??? Well most everything else I don't have pictures of. But it's been a fun month with lots more to mention, but I think I''ll stop for now. If you haven’t died from boredom, good job. I finally got a new post in! Oh, and if there are lots of typos or run on sentances or whatever; I don't care, I'm not going to go back and fix them.
The End
