A week in Our life::3
Random photos and organized thoughts.




















Stories:
  • Trevor saw a bird on our deck this morning and said in his MOST excited voice, "Mom and Dad come see! There is a family of chickadees living in our woods!"
Good things:
  • Lunch out downtown (without kids) with one of my very best girlfriends, the food was fresh, healthy, homemade and fabulous--not to mention the company!
  • It's chai tea season again
  • my photography lesson and my week in the life project, which are forcing me to notice for the first time all the little things in my life.
  • the gym!
  • It's October-- my favorite month (and my birthday month!)
  • fitting into pants that I haven't worn in years
  • Helen
  • Josh's work at home schedule.
  • The color of the leaves
  • Josh's new coffee maker
  • Lucas giving Trevor spontaneous hugs
  • Lucas' new word "heavy" (as he lugs out my whole set of pots and pans)
  • Breanna's nose and face being totally clear

Struggles:

  • feeling guilty about leaving Lucas for the whole day
  • noticing the laundy piling up
  • getting Trevor to "sit" for a meal
  • working today when I would normally have the day off
  • passing up some cute "gifty" items in a shop downtown
  • Trevor is not eating his lunch at school
  • being up late and working when I wish I could just be at home relaxing
  • That Lucas followed directions (and is starting to speak more than) better than Breanna.
  • that tonight when I get home (at midnight) I'll still have to make lunches and get things ready for tommorrow..
  • this rain.
  • just plain trying to get everything done....
