Time for an Update

For the first time in almost a week, I feel like posting! I've been suffering through a case of what nearly everyone in town has aptly named "The crud". Congestion, sore throat, and a nagging cough that still wont let go. Thankfully, Jason and Norah have seemingly, somehow escaped its clutches. I'm praying they'll hold out through the rest of the cold/flu/crud season.

Despite my posting hiatus, I have managed to take a few photos here and there, so I thought I'd share them in hopes of giving you a grin or two. I think the first two would make a great "Make up a Caption" contest, so feel free to post your original captions.

When I discovered Norah driving with her baby last week, I thought about warning her of what happened when Britney pulled that stunt, but decided she was probably better off not knowing who Miss Spears is.



I snapped this shot while I was putting away the groceries. (As you can see, Robinson County stocked up on TP this week.) Norah chilled out on that package of Angel Soft for the duration of my grocery putting away rituals. Which makes me wonder...if she like putting away dishes so much, maybe I can get her started on helping with the groceries too.







And finally, there's nothing like posting your "To Do" list on your blog to hold you accountable. I'm pleased to inform you that I have accomplished several of my goals from last week's T13.


Finish Cake Order--Check!
Wash Sheets--Check!
Fold Laundry--Check! (And I'm happy to report that I haven't stacked any more in the laundry basket so far this week...I've been folding it as I go...like I should have been doing all along)
Read--Check! (I've been keeping up with my One Year Bible and still had a little time to read "Wild at Heart" and I'm loving both)



Organize Norah's Clothes and Shoes--Check! Thanks to a church buddy, Denise P, I was able to locate a shoe organizer just like I was looking for. It was so affordable that I bought two, and organized my shoes, too. (Granted, I couldn't fit all my shoes in there, but at least I have more room in my closet than I did before...which is funny, because I never really thought I had that many pairs of shoes)

Norah's closet and dresser are now ready for Spring. I have sorted through, folded, and stored all of the things she's outgrown. (It's amazing how short-lived baby clothes are...but at least they can be re-used!) Thanks, Jen, for a fresh load of new clothes!

Well, speaking of To Dos, I guess I'd better get going so I can check off a few more. (Don't worry, I wont bore you with all the details every time I accomplish one, I just wanted to let everyone know that I did, actually do more than just make a list last week)
