Eliana

Current favorite words: nocturnal and octagon. Yes, she uses them correctly.



Most recent funny sayings: "Happy New Ears!" and "I have a terrible head egg"



Favorite game: Pretending to be the mommy and taking "Mama Elie" and "Papa Elie" to the doctor for eating to many cookies. We always end up getting shots.



Pastimes: Bossing around the sister, the dog and anyone in her vicinity. Pretending. Watching monkey and "Milo and Otis". Reading books. Asking lots and lots of questions. Taking Earl for a walk.



Favorite Foods: broccoli, qusadillas, pizza, frozen peas, pasta with red sauce, frosting



Hates: getting hair brushed, done, and washed. Being "stuck" in her car seat. Anyone touching her "bubas" (bunnies)



Current interest: Letters and how words work, anything to do with artistic pursuits, mud, snow, singing songs and throwing in the word "poop"



Best friend: Earl, the potato my father drew a face on 2 weeks ago. Earl is her brother. I am afraid of what is going to happen when Earl starts to rot. Thanks dad.

YOu crack me up! I'm with Kari - maybe some backup Earl's... you know... just in case...

I also love that she & T love a lot of the same things - they really are kindred spirits!! T loves giving us shots. Go figure. And his favorite new words are "pteradactyl" and "Backyardigans." He likes to tell us those are "really, really big words!" And the hair thing - what's up with that?? T has started being anti-shampoo. What now??

Working on my Domestic Goddess Badge

I looked at the to-do list I made last week and am happy to say I can cross off almost everything on it. It only took me 2 weeks. I think I either need smaller lists or more time. Here is what I have been up to: -I have made 2 loaves of banana oat bread, 1 batch of blackberry strawberry freezer jam, 1 loaf of gluten free bread. -From 12 juiced grapefruit I made grapefruit curd and a pan of grapefruit bars. -My garden is almost completely done, including a upgrade in size. I am growing tomatoes, onions, peppers, potatoes , cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower , herbs, lettuce, spinach , green beans, snap peas, cucumbers, and kohlrabi. -I hung herbs to dry -I have folded massive amounts of laundry...with more yet to do. All washed with my homemade laundry soap. -I recovered the "green monster" which is another post entirely. -I added a sitting area in my bedroom, where I am currently sitting, so that my laptop has a home other than the kitchen table. - I got a new dining room table a...

Happy Birthday Addilyn Joy!

Addilyn, Happy birthday, big girl! I love your laugh, your zest for life, your need to move. I love that you want to be a donut on Halloween and have a rainbow birthday party, your drummer has a beat all it's own and I can't wait to see where it leads you as you grow. Your eyes have a sparkle, both joyous and mischievous. You keep me on my toes, are always ready to snuggle or get in a tickle fight. You have an uncanny ability to trash clothing, spill milk, run into objects and make everyone in a room smile. With a dialect all your own, you love to chat as you help me in the kitchen or follow me as I straighten up. Content to play quietly by yourself or follow Eliana's lead in a game of pretend, you do such a good job watching out for your little sister. I am so pleased with the little girl you are becoming, God is going to do such cool things with your life. I count my blessings for every day I get to spend as your mommy, watching your zest and spice for life reminds me to ...

The Counter

Matt meets a lot of interesting people in his line of work. Most recently he spent some time in LA with Andy Lichit, producer of "Water World" and "Cable Guy". Apparently, Andy is not only into movies, but food too. He has a restaurant in Park Meadows area called "The Counter". He called the manager here and told him that Matt and I would be coming in and to comp our dinner. So we called our favorite baby sitter (Thanks FAITH!) and went for a great meal sans kiddo's. The Counter is an up-scale design your own burger joint. We ate some fabulous burgers and enjoyed some grown up conversation. Not a bad way to end a weekend.
