Today - September 10, 2012

Outside my window.... hot and sunny 

I am thinking...  of birthday party plans for the boys and Juliette's little party this weekend.  I am doing a butterfly theme because we call her our little butterfly.  :)

I am thankful...  to our neighbor for sitting over here to listen for the kiddos who were in bed while Gabe & I went out to dinner on Friday night.  It was nice to enjoy a quiet meal and converse!

From the schoolroom...  We have some cocoon and butterfly crafts hanging on the craft board for religion because a butterfly is a sign of new life.  

From the kitchen...  clean dishes that hubby hand washed from yesterday that I need to put away and too many snacks!

I am creating...  a cross stitch baby sampler to hang above Juliette's bed

I am working on...  a handmade knight themed party invitation for the boy's birthday.  I thought the boy's friends might enjoy getting something in the mail.  

I am going...  to fold a basket of laundry, do some sewing and watch some netflix when I finish this.  Nap time for the kiddos!  

I am wondering...  boy or girl?  boy or girl!!??

I am hoping... to get some things crossed off my to-do list this week

I am praying... for NO back labor during this baby's delivery!  

I am reading...  Hubby and I have been reading Three to Get Married.  (we haven't picked it up in a week or two :() so I haven't read at all this past week.

I am looking forward to...  Juliette turning 1 this weekend!  Even though she won't remember it, it's still exciting and we finally get to have a PINK birthday party!

Around the house yard...   some newly planted seeds and seedlings.  We planted a box of carrots, some sugar snap peas, green onions, lettuce, two tomato plants, one fed bell pepper plant and some basil.  We still have cilantro, parsley and rosemary to plant in pots.  

One of my favorite things...  snuggling Juliette while she drinks her bottle

Pondering these words...   "She stood in the storm and when the wind did not blow her way she adjusted her sails"

A few plans for the rest of my week...  this morning I had a chiro appointment and tonight we're going over to someone's house for dinner and a little girl's birthday celebration, tomorrow night we're watching our neighbor's boys while they go on a date, Thursday my friend is watching my kids for three hours while I do errands, Friday I have a midwife appointment and Saturday is Juliette's 1st birthday!  We are just going to have a couple families over for cake and ice cream and maybe dinner if I'm feeling up to it.
