happenings

Things that have been going on around here in the past, oh, month:

• Finding an apartment, and moving in as slowly and painfully as possible
• An absurd amount of Valentine photo shoots, as you probably saw on Facebook and Instagram.
• Haggling over all the shades of paint colors.
• Repurposing and painting old furniture to put in the girls' room
• Deciding it's probably time in my life to own my own power sander.
• Visiting Home Depot most days of the week
• Having Greta smear spackle across the front of the dresser while singing "don't touch, don't touch, don't touch"
• Playing outside in absurd amounts of sunshine and 60 degree weather
• Debating how we're going to convince Greta to sleep in her own room/bed. We'll gladly take either.
• Trying to brainstorm, narrow down, and settle on a baby girl name. Let's be honest, this is still going to take some time.
• Catching bugs in jars. Greta really loves spiders and webs and bugs.
• A President's Day jaunt to red rock country
• Piecing together my first quilt for Greta's new bed. I finished the top, and at first I was pretty proud of myself. But now I'm getting increasingly embarrassed. How all projects go, right?
• Signing up for a Mom/tot swim class with Greta because this is the last six week period that she'll be an only child.
• Missing the snow a bit. As we drove home from Texas, I was really looking forward to a nice snowy winter. I've been a little disappointed.
• Taking baby to the doctor, getting chest x-rays, and debating whether or not she has a virus or pneumonia settling in.

.... another one of these days I might even get around to posting some old drafts I have on here!

over and out.
