WHERE YOU SLEEP
I'm lucky enough to have my dream bed. It takes up most of our room, but hey, it's worth it. Hopefully in our new house I can put the mosquito netting up. It makes me feel like a little kid playing a princess.
CLOSE UP
My eyes use to be blue - like a startling blue, much like Milo's, but now they're more greenish. Weird.
Childhood Memory
_Again, all I had was my phone on me when I took Milo out for a walk today. Above is a picture of Olga's house - Olga was an elderly woman whose husband died shortly after we moved into the house right next to her. I was around 5th grade or so when we moved next to her. She was the kindest old woman - I remember her inviting us over for home cooked meals, handing out popcorn balls at Halloween, telling us stories of the early 20th century (which always fascinate me), and inviting me over to let me look through her things she'd gotten for being an Avon Lady during her career days. She also would jelly and pickle a variety of things that she'd always bring over for us. She was the sweetest lady and I was so happy to see she was still living here when we moved in the house down the street from her. Unfortunately, she either passed away or went to a nursing home because I came home from work one day and saw the for sale sign up and her son cleaning up the potted plants and curios from the garden. :( I will always remember Olga though and I'm happy to say she is a prominent childhood memory I have.
DAILY ROUTINE
This has been a part of my daily routine over 7 months now. I started out 9 to 10 times a day and now I'm finally down to only once per day as of today. The end is near. I can't believe how much time of my life I have spent attached to this thing, but it was all for our little butter bean!
Your Sky
... Cue Radiohead music...
Favorite
Sorry I'm a bit behind, I will post to catch up later today. HOWEVER, this term "favorite" I am taking very loosely. I will choose to show you my favorite headband of the moment. I got it from Burlington coat factory - I feel very Frida Kahlo in it..
SOMETHING THAT MAKES YOU SMILE
There's nothing quite like looking over and seeing your husband sending your son into relentless laughter at getting his bare belly tickled.
SOMETHING YOU WORE
Keyword "WORE". Y'all are not seeing what a hot mess I looked like today! This is when we visited the riverwalk in San Antonio. Unfortunately whomever took the picture got us blurry but the background is in excellent focus, LOL. No, the outfit wasn't too exciting, but I haven't worn anything really that cute since Milo was born because I kind of stopped caring... but I do have my moments... they just normally aren't caught on film ^.^
See ya tomorrow!
Letterbox
I always thought this mailbox was weird since it looked like it was made by playskool even when I was a kid living on this street. It's what I like to call our 'tupperware mailbox'. Not too exciting. See ya tomorrow!
Something You Adore
I have two somethings that I adore - and no, I can't choose just one.
This is my son Milo. He likes the Pumpkin & Apples he's eating, I'm sure the face is him rocking out to the tunes in the background. Anyway, I can't imagine my life without him now that he's here (He's 7 months old as of Sunday). It's so funny when you realize a piece of your heart was missing and you didn't even realize it until it's a part of your life.
This is my husband Roland. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of him today WITH Milo because that would have been much better, but I will soon. He's pretty much amazing - he's such an active and involved father. Everything that the 'woman' stereotypically does when raising a kid, he's in on too (except the breastfeeding part, ha!). He's just a wonderful person who would do anything to take care of his family. I count myself the luckiest woman on earth to have him.
See you tomorrow!
BREAKFAST
HAHA seeing as I woke up at 9 and then we didn't make it out of the house until 11:30a, this is the first thing I ate today, minus the biscuit because I decided I hated it. We went to Village Inn. So I guess that qualifies as "breakfast". I've been so bad about eating in a timely manner and drinking enough fluids now that I'm not pregnant and barely pumping anymore! I know a made a point of saying I was going to use my nice camera, but I forgot to take it out today and thus you have a quasi-crappy cell phone pic.
What did you eat today? See you tomorrow!
