Note to self

I often make verbal "notes" to myself, which I usually forget almost instantly. However, occasionally they will stick with me. Here are a few that have "stuck" with me recently...

Note to self: Jack is a good helper, but maybe he needs a little more direction from me.

Note to self: Leaving a two year old alone (even for a minute) while eating yogurt, probably isn't a good idea.
Note to self: after popping out one of these,Don't try and clean the refrigerator the day you get home from the hospital.

Note to self: when you hear "diaper" and "Uh oh" in the same phrase from your two year old,

Don't roll over and go back to sleep.

Note to self: if all of your spices are on the floor of the kitchen (as mine were for almost 3 months), you can't really get too mad a certain 2 year old boy when he dumps out all of the pepper over the floor.
Note to self: These smiles make it all worth it!

Quick Pic

I am so blessed in my life to have a very talented sister who is willing to snap a couple quick pictures of us in an impromptu photo shoot on Sunday after church. Thanks Darbs, here are some of my favs!

The kitchen

Most of the cabinets are up.
Most everything is put away.
The dishes are Mostly done.
