Relief from the heatPosted by Alli on January 31, 2009
Today was a beautiful day. I was so hot I asked Damon to open the window a little bit. Unfortunately, he didn’t think it was that warm. I guess I have to figure if I’m warm, it doesn’t really mean others are warm too. So, I resorted to lots of ice water, and a sweet, [...]
Baby hatPosted by Alli on January 30, 2009
For some reason I got a bee in my bonnet to crochet a baby hat for Baby Two. I did it yesterday and then this morning finished the ribbing on the end. The pattern can be found here. I still want to add eyes and ears to it, but it looks kind of cute as [...]
Learning new thingsPosted by Alli on January 29, 2009
One of the fun things about being a homeschooling mom (it’s kind of a new title for me) is getting to learn new things. Or remember the things you forgot. Today Fuller and I took a nature walk to check out trees and identify them. I honestly have no idea about what kinds of trees [...]
Aw, ManPosted by Alli on January 28, 2009
The rain this morning threw us off. Besides a botched lesson plan (it depended on being outside), I didn’t have anything to take to a Moms Group brunch. And when I got to Moms Group, I developed a wicked headache. I left Moms Group (it was still raining) and discovered my cell phone in the [...]
Sunny day, chasing the clouds awayPosted by Alli on January 27, 2009
When Fuller’s quiet time was over, I practically forced him out the door in order to enjoy the warmth and sunshine. I know most of the US is dealing with snow and ice, but here in Chattanooga, we were blessed with Spring like temperatures. It won’t last, which made it even more important to enjoy [...]
Definitely not lighterPosted by Alli on January 26, 2009
I ran into Karen the other day and she mentioned it looked like I was carrying lower. I thought maybe I had dropped (though, really did I drop or did the baby?) but until I took this picture this evening, and compared it to my other belly pictures, I wasn’t sure. Now, I know. When [...]
Low lightPosted by Alli on January 25, 2009
This morning was really sunny and when we were at church, Damon had to scoot over on the pew to keep from being blinded by the sun streaming through this window. I think the picture would have been better with a lens that shoots well in low light, but that’s all technical talk, right? I [...]
Girls Night OutPosted by Alli on January 24, 2009
I’m posting my photo a day now since I have no idea when I’ll get home or if I’ll feel like touching a computer. We spent a good portion of the day sorting toys. Part of the process was emptying bins and getting out the stuff that didn’t belong there. The vehicle bin (mostly cars, [...]
Rest stopPosted by Alli on January 23, 2009
Today was the first time this week I was able to head out shopping for necessities and then some. I planned it out to where Fuller and I hit stores all on the same side of town. I knew we wouldn’t be able to go to several stores before lunch, so we made a rest [...]
InstalledPosted by Alli on January 22, 2009
Carpet installed. This is what is left over. I’m so excited! Now, I guess we are all clear to have a baby. Sure, his clothes are still in the attic, but we have carpet. W00t!
