On a side note...

Our roof is covered in ice, resulting in saggyness and a screen door that won't open but halfway.. and I know it's not a good thing to have but I like looking at the icicles coming off the roof.

I cannot WAIT for the OLYMPICS in a few weeks! I do love them.. don't know why. It's just neat to see the world come together on a positive note like there aren't any wars or terrible things occuring.. and of course who doesn't love the ice skating and curling.. kidding. I was always a Michelle Kwan fan.. poor her.

It was really nice here for a while, I mean in the 30s nice, thus all the melting snow-turned ice business. However, it's frigid cold again. Why do we live here agian? OH, and with that melting snow, and also lots of RAIN the other day, we got some leakage in our basement. Not a ton, but it's still not a good thing. I knew the lady we bought the house from wasn't telling the truth when she swore there weren't any leaks in the basement. Hrrumph!

Sarah is attempting to crawl but can't get a grip on our wood floors. She gets really frustrated and also faceplants when she slips. Poor thing! I put my yoga mat down to help her but now she just wants to eat that. She's pretty cute about it though. She's got 2 teeth now.

I was hoping to avoid this thinking I'm just that good of a mom.. haha.. but sadly, Sarah dove off the bed the other day, hitting her head HARD on the floor. Of course I was 5 feet away doing my makeup in the bathroom and swore she was far enough away NOT to fall off.. she's ok. Good thing they don't remember these things..

What's with the sudden hatred towards peas? Sarah LOVED peas since the first time I gave them to her. Seriously, like mother, like daughter. But recently she swears I'm trying to give her poison. Also, she hates fruit. What's up with that? We have a new booster seat though, with a tray and everything. YAY! That's all I can say.. the Cheerios are evading her however. She only wants ME to hand-feed them to her. She'll play with them, knocking them off onto the floor.. but doesn't get that SHE can feed HERSELF! Lazy baby..

I am speaking in church on Sunday.. I really enjoy the opportunity and the topic but it's the actual prepping I'm not a fan of.

Bought some conversation hearts at the dollar store yesterday, only 1 bag.. love those things.

We're on week 3 of continual working out.. of course I missed Monday for various reasons and yesterday's was cut short because I think my jumping around woke the sleeping grizzly baby in the other room and she refused to go back to sleep.. but I'm doing it!

oooooooooh one more thing. I was just daydreaming looking toward my disheveled living room and the sun came through the clouds shining a warm, golden light into the room. I love when it does that! It's gone now but I'm grateful for those little moments of sunshine that remind me that God does love me. Oh! there it goes again! ..............sigh.........

Hey Julie! Wow, I thought it was cold here in Spokane, but it looks like you've topped our coldness.

Paige fell off our bed either 2 or 3 times when she was little. I felt horrible. But you're right- they won't remember. :)

Good job on working out. I am excited to get back into fitness after I have the baby. I have gotten super lazy with this pregnancy.

Every parent has had a kid fall off the bed--don't worry it happens to ALL of us!
