1. Yesterday afternoon, while Grace and I were deheading my hanging flower baskets, Eden was playing in our side yard. She looked up into our lilac tree which is known for attracting butterflies, she saw this gorgeous Tiger Swallowtail butterfly. It was so cute because she was actually out with her bug catcher net looking for something to catch when she looked up and said,” I’ve never seen this kind of butterfly before!” Grace and I ran over and then I quickly ran into the house to snap some pictures. It was so beautiful! And it just sat there on the limb of the tree and then it closed it’s wings and I got some cool pics of that too. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen one of these butterflies in my own yard before.
2. I started workout 2 of the six week 6 pack yesteday afternoon. It’s so much easier to just watch it, lol! It is so hard. I hurt today! I can’t believe I have 3 weeks of this killer workout.
3. Christian said,” Dada” to Josh the other day. I can’t believe he’s trying to talk. Can we stop time please?
4. Sunday afternoon, while Christian was snoozing, Josh decided it was time to put talk into action and started rearranging our living room. We had been taking about it for awhile, and our plan is it brighten up the colors too. There’s a lot of red, brown and beige in there and I’m tired of it. So we found a pinterest picture we both liked of a color scheme and were starting to implement the changes. The first step was changing the living room. It’s cleaner now, but still kind of undecorated and disorganized. But I promise it’s better than this picture. I can’t believe how much space we have now. When we’re finished, I’ll put up a before and after. This is just the in between.
5. I’m supposed to get my hair done this week. I’m thinking about this color and these bangs. What do you think?
6. I’m stuck inside my house today. Even if I wanted to go somewhere I can’t. Josh’s car is in the shop. We’re trying to fix an emissions problem so it will pass DEQ, but the city is putting a slurry on our street and my whole street is blocked off. It’s kind of loud over here from the machines.
7. I just love these Patriotic Cones! Aren’t they super cute?
8. Christian is trying so so hard to crawl. It won’t be long before he figures it out. Then I’ve actually got to worry about baby-proofing the house.
9. I need to buy shorts and some tanks. I don’t have any super casual tanks, they are all kind of dressy casual…nothing t-shirt like and I’ve only got a few pair of shorts. Sometimes I feel like they just don’t make summer clothes for girls with hips and thighs, because they are either to tight on my hip, waist area and loose in the thighs or vice versa. Suggestions on where to shop? I don’t want to spend a fortune.
10. We have Apple, Cocoa, Blue Ivy, Sparrow, North, and now Ace??? WHY????
