Good things…

DSC_0260-1

- Lazy Saturday mornings of bike rides, late yard saleing, and a quick stop by the neighborhood grocery for bread and baked beans…

- Snagging a really nice soft-sided cooler for $1 that everyone else had ignored because of a little dirt. It cleaned up in a jiffy…

- Sitting on the porch swing with my honey, watching the boys splash in the wading pool.

- Making homemade chocolate chip cookie dough.

- Being able to reward the 4-year-old who had gotten up from his nap to go potty (which equals dry diaper) with chocolatey goodness…

- Said boy’s smile of pride at his accomplishment…

- Suddenly insecure toddler wanting to cuddle with his daddy all day. And him asking first thing when he woke up, “Where’s Daddy?”

- Friends who loan us caulk guns and tell us about mold resistant shower caulk. =)

- Doing a numbers sticker book with Seth. And seeing him get better at counting all of a sudden…

- Offloading some princess dress up clothes (that didn’t fit nieces) on friends who want them. And remembering that that wasn’t the part of having a girl that I was that interested in anyway. Barbie princesses= blech.

- “Trey” letting me know he’s there with squirms and swings and kicks all day long. And the comfort and dawning realization that he’ll be here in 7 weeks…
