tuesday thoughts

i fell asleep talking to my hubby last night - just nodded off and didn't wake up until 7 this morning. woops.

we had an amazing weekend in the mountains with friends. good conversation, fun games, birthday celebration, amazing food - what's not to love?

RM skinned his knee this weekend, and yesterday matched that with one on his chin. He also has a nasty scratch down the side of his face, and a red spot on his bald head. it looks like he's been in a dog fight.

the tubes must be working, because we are hearing far more from the little man in the last few days than we had been. it's like someone flipped a switch and he suddenly hears clearly and realizes he can repeat a lot more of what we say. crazy.

i have two dear friends who are about to pop out babies any day. one surprise gender, fifth child and one surprise name, first child. i am soooo excited to see these little ones and their parents/siblings!!

my parents are leaving today for Europe - won't be back until September. it's not that i see them or talk to them every day, or even twice a week necessarily, but there is a certain security to having your parents close. i miss them already.

You should write professionally! It's so fun reading about Red...can't wait for Anna to get to play with him sometime. I just checked my blog and saw your comment/questions...here's answers:
1. white maternity pants--GAP...I actually bought two pairs in different sizes b/c i didn't want to outgrow them!
2. vintage farm--target...it's the fisher price 25th anniversary treat:)
