Great day! Well, started sort of rough as I didn’t get much sleep last night. Nathaniel just had too much gas the poor boy, so he cried and cired. (Since he’s napping right now at 9pm, I am guessing tonight won’t be a breeze either.) But then I did so much! I went shopping for some groceries for recipes and made the delicious Granola Bars in the photo above. Before that I made a delicious Sole fish and ate it for lunch. My first time cooking in 14 years!
I know the photo isn’t so great but it tasted delicious, I swear. I have Kelli Crowe to thank cause she linked to the Barefoot Contessa book that I ended up buying and it’s where these recipes come from. Yum! There shall be more cooking next week.
And here’s the little boy. He had an ok day. A little rough on the naps but nothing else terrible. He’s a superstar. Oh, and when I came home from the store, I saw the A Millon Memories box on my doorstep and it was all I needed to get my jump on Nathaniel’s baby book. I sat and did three layouts. I am doing something different (than David’s) with Nathaniel’s book and as soon as my photos are here from Shuttefly and I put some of it together, I will share.
Happy long weekend!
Look at that boy. I keep thinking his eyes are turning brown but then I see the photos and they still look blue to me…Today was a great day. I got a ton done and I feel great about it. Our house is finally starting to look like a house and not a box collection. The garage still sucks but one day at a time. Here’s another Nathaniel, sucking on his hand.
And here’s David in his full Buzz Lightyear costume.
And it’s been a while since I had a tulip. 🙂
I also ordered our first CSA basket today. We’re scheduled to receive Broccoli, zucchini, squash medley, green beans, Valencia oranges, pluots, strawberries, and nectarines. Let’s see how yummy they are.
Rabbit Rabbit. Happy July Everyone. I need to work on figuring out how to take good photos in this house. I haven’t sorted it out yet. No energy. I did open all the book boxes today and I’m doing something fun with the books and I will post ab out it as soon as I am done. Nathaniel is really whining right now so I guess this will be it for today. Oh and I did make some art! yey for art!
He looks smiley but he’s been fussy almost all day and went on a full-out wailing spree when we were in Safeway today. Despite that, I got to run some errands and unpacked 12 more boxes. The end is still not in sight but I am feeling more hopeful. No art today. Maybe tomorrow…
And here’s one of David. He’s been wearing the Buzz Lightyear costume daily lately. I didn’t think he was into dressing up but obviously I was wrong. He’s so cute in it.
My friend Nicholas and Ty came over today and David immediately took Ty hostage and Ty was generous enough to play with him and read to him. He’s the best. So is Nicholas who helped me!
Nathaniel had his 2-month appointment today which meant shots which meant a fever of 101. Poor boy.
David has never ever been in water. Ever. Not one time since he was born. For the first four years, his pediatrician recommended otherwise so we never took swimming classes. But this summer, I wanted to register him for classes and see how he does in the water. I was a bit nervous but never said anything to him. Well, it turns out he was a superstar! From the first moment, he jumped, he put his head under water, he made bubbles. It was like he’s always been in water. I can tell this will be a fun class!
Jake’s parents have been in town and before they left, I wanted to make sure to capture some photos of them and Nathaniel. In this photo aboce he definitely looks just like me.
The Hulk David! He’s been having so much fun with this costume. And here’s one of the baby.
And just in case you think I don’t have one from yesterday for Nathaniel, here it is. David kissing him while his grandmother holds him. Much loved.
Love this boy and this very handsome man.
Look at that look! And, of course, here’s the sweet boy.
About to fall asleep.
Those stunning eyes. I wonder if Nathaniel will have them, too.
