Thirsty Walls

310810
The walls are thirsty. The bathroom was actually darker than the rest of the pink paint through the condo - and it's thirsty and sucking up the blue like a sponge. I might have to go get more tomorrow because two coats might just not be enough...sigh...

A New Dress?

260810
Doesn't quite look like a dress. I went out tonight to get a new dress for a wedding we're going to on Saturday. I didn't find a dress, but I did come home with a bag full of daycare clothes for J.

Stacey brought this over for J for her birthday. J LOVED it! But, just so you know, it's for coffee, NOT tea!

Back To School Baking

240810
While J isn't technically going back to school, it feels like back to school is coming. We're going to have a big schedule change in September, so I've been getting ready by filling the freezer with quick things for lunches and for dinners.

First Day Of Daycare

230810
Little Miss J went to daycare for the first time today. It was just a short visit and Mom and Dad stayed with her too. I tried to get J to pose at the front door or on the rocking chair but she wanted her picture with her book. She wanted to take the book with her because the other kids might want to read it...because, you know, maybe the daycare won't have books.

J had a busy day today - first she went to her very first movie in a movie theatre and then we went to the park...could it get any better than that?

Pens

200810
I spent some time clearing off our desk tonight and I think I threw out, oh, 30-35 pens. I have lots of pens. They go with my paper obsession...I actually tried all the ones shoved into this container and got rid of the ones that don't work!

Dressed For Rain...

190810
It's J's birthday and she got this adorable rain suit from my parents...and of course she wanted to wear it. It didn't last long when she realized how hot it was!

Straight Hair

130810
J had her hair straightened by her nanny today...maybe she doesn't like it?!?! (Nah, this was about something else, but look how long her hair is when it's straight!)

Waiting For The Doctor

120810
We had to stop at the doctor on the way in this morning (everything is fine!). J was more than happy to sit and wait for her - there was a stool to sit on that was just her height!

Old School....Old Dorm

090810
Our new offices are in an old dorm...some parts of the building (like our offices) have been renovated, but some, like this bathroom are still original. The blue tiles, the double faucets, the towel racks...

Eat Puppy

080810
It got very quiet in our house this afternoon...when I went to investigate I discovered this. It seems J has decided the best way to eat is to eat like a puppy.

Cozy Animal Bed

010810
Before bed tonight J made herself a cozy bed in a pile of stuffed animals and then got all her little Fisher-Price animals and tucked them in around her. Because, you know, that's what you do!
