For today...

FOR TODAY...

Outside my window...   it is a beautiful fall day. Most of the leaves have fallen off the trees and are in perfect piles for playing in. Ro especially enjoys running through the huge mounds. I guess that's one of the reasons I'm ok with not having time to rake.

I am thinking... that I need to find a babysitter to my hubby and I can have a date soon. Last time, we got Ruby Tuesday-to-go and rented Date Night (which was HILARIOUS.) but I think we need to get out on the town.

I am thankful for... my mother in law and my sister Kris. While my hubs was gone all weekend, my mother in law came and helped with the kids several times. And then my sis came for a day too. I might have gone insane with out them.

From the learning rooms... Ro is learning how to say "and" statements. Next, we conquer "or"!

From the kitchen... we had Chinese take-out tonite. Again. And it was good. I ain't ashamed.

I am wearing...  My pjs. Cuz its 11 PM and friends, that's late for this mama.

I am creating... a bunch of orders for my shop and hopefully some Christmas presents after that! I do love making things.

I am going... to completely freak out if I don't get more than 3 hours of sleep tonite. Freak. Out.

I am reading... nothing at all. Sometimes I get a chance to read the Word. When I do that, it's usually a Psalm. I love those because they almost always apply to some area of my life every time I read one.

I am hoping... for a nice, beautiful sunny day tomorrow so Ash and Bell can go out and play in the leaves.

I am hearing... the toilet flushing. You asked!

Around the house...  things are starting to become normal again. Hubby was gone all weekend and the house was pretty much a wreck. I think we're good now though. The kitchen looks usable again.

One of my favorite things... is when Hubs brings back candy for me from whatever trip he was on. Lets me know he was thinking of me. :)

A few plans for the rest of the week:  Dinner with some good friends tomorrow, going to visit my grandparents on Wed, babysitting my wonderful neice Thurs morning and then hopefully nothing else for a few days. I'm an introvert.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...

always put wigs on your kids and take pictures. you will never, not once, regret it.
