Fashion Advice

-
I'm now getting fashion advice from a 2 year old. Yesterday she said, "mommy, why you wear dat shirt?" And last night, "no, mommy, not dos shoes." I have a feeling that life with Rory as a teenager is going to be interesting.

I've mentioned my trouble sleeping on here, right? In deference to my husband I've tried to be sensitive about WHY I can't sleep most of the time. Well, he's outed himself. Check it out here.

I'm still not feeling well, but I did manage to get 8 hours of sleep last night which should go a long way towards helping me feel better! And there's nothing on the agenda for this cold rainy day so I think we'll all take it easy.

We're starting a women's Bible study tonight, and we're using Beth Moore's Esther study. I'm really looking forward to it!

I hate posting without pics, but I have nothing to share since there have been no photo opportunities, and I have not scrapped all week. Maybe tomorrow I'll have something. At the very least, I've got to get this blogwear changed - the dark colors in April are killing me!

I'm a little scared for Rory to critique my fashion sense :) Thanks for the videos! You can tell Rory has been watching some American Idol.

Bummer...I know that is so frustrating to wake up to that noise and then I have a hard time getting back to sleep. Has your husband tried those nose strips? Would he wake if the kids starting crying so you could feel comfortable wearing ear plugs? My sister has wore ear plugs her whole married life.

You will love the Esther study, Melissa! I was in the middle of it when we left for Korea so I haven't finished it but it is a great one! Enjoy!

Blogging, Not Blogging

Blogging feels awkward these days. Not blogging feels a bit like abandoning an old friend. In this season of life it doesn't feel necessary to jot down every cute quip (and that's only partially because they don't say nearly as many cute things). The kiddos (even that is strange - can I still call a 12 and 9 year old kiddos?) are more likely to say "don't put that on your blog!" Rory still likes the attention, but Camden is feeling the need for privacy. But they also still love to read my words. Not a week goes by that they don't pull out blog books from previous years and pore over the pictures and words. Rory giggles and retells the stories; Camden quietly takes in the tougher subjects. Here's the truth. I have less to share because life is both busy and unexciting at the same time. I cannot distinguish between what is important to remember and what will be meaningless in 20 years when Camden and Rory are grown with families of thei

Cousins, part 3 (the adult version)

-

So I'm notoriously bad about including adults in the picture when we're all together, and this trip was no exception. Here are the very few that include adults. Becky is always my test subject before the cousin photo shoots. At the baseball game (which was incredibly hot/humid and started nearly an hour late). Kids were pretty wiped out after their naps following the return from camp. (the adult who spent a week at camp might have been tired too) Camden had the camera and took these pictures of me and Becky, Liz, and mom. Lewis/Hale/Derby/Lemons family - you're all caught up!

7/52: Pastel

-
Image
This week's theme was pastel and there's not a whole lot of pastel in our house, much less with my black-eyed, black-haired Korean gal. However, she gave me about 10 minutes of cooperation in 10 degree weather and we attempted a pastel snow picture. The first one is my official pastel picture, but I included the other attempts because it was pretty darn fun. This is a new face I'm seeing often these days. By the way, she has 3 shirts underneath this dress, a pair of pajama pants and a pair of hot pink sweat pants. LOL
