was surprised by an Alex made breakfast of wonderfully aromatic and crispy french toast.
watched Livie all of a sudden become completely enamored with ballerinas. She has been watching ballerinas on tv, in books and has not taken off her sisters ballet outfit all week. The only time she wore something else was while I washed her outfit a few times. The hair is always crazy but I love to see her just running around without a care in the world
went hunting w four of the kids to garage sales which produced a few vintage canning jars, one with a glass lid (need to find more of these) some beautifully embroidered pillow cases for the girls beds from an estate sale, a vintage apron with the sweetest red border (why do I love red so much?)
had a momma’s day out w a good friend, a visit to Ikea and a few thrift stores, great conversation and time to unwind made for a great day
celebrated Christopher’s 6th birthday. Christopher was my surprise baby, born at home in the bathroom by mistake. He has always been a ball of energy. He has never walked, preferring to jump, run and bounce everywhere. He has all of a sudden turned into a cleaning machine, asking for what other chores he can do to help out on a daily basis. I came home from my day out to find Nicholas baking and decorating a spiderman cake for his brother with no help from anyone. I think it came out great and it touches my heart to see how my children love each other
have been enjoying the rain lately which is sometimes followed by amazing promises from God in the form of a double rainbow
went out with Poppa on a date night and ended up on a game show at a wings place.
found a flower press at a yard sale which the girls have been using daily.
pulled out all the bins of clothing where I keep the outgrown clothing that is waiting to fit the next child. We reorganized them, getting rid of what we don’t truly love and finding lots of dresses for Livie. Every dress I pulled out came with it the memories of my older girls when they wore them. Some of the dresses that fit her now are size 6 and 7…my baby is only 3.
worked on a few baby projects including the wool papoose.
