A few things

are on my mind right now so I thought I would share

  • Eva has a weird whistle at the end of her cough.  I think it is a wheeze.  Can asthma show up this early or is it just her cold?  Blake was croupy with it….
  • A day can make a big difference.  I am much more rested and renewed.
  • Cole took all of my roller adhesive things for scrapbooking and stuck stuff all over the house.  He broke 3 out of 4.
  • i just bought more- j’s is having a big sale
  • typing with sick baby snuggled on my lap
  • someone is texting me but my phone is across the room and i don’t want to get up
  • cotillion starts again tonight for Austin
  • i had a veggie burger for lunch and then a big piece of birthday cake- no deprivation around here
  • Austin got a gift in the mail today from his Gramma- can’t wait for him to get home and see it, pic tomorrow!
  • Little Miss Eva smiled today.  Didn’t see any smiles yesterday.
  • almost bought this at Target today for 48.  Just found it online for 23!
  • my house is freezing, just threw on husbands huge sweatshirt.  Looking lovely but feeling warm.
  • did I mention that I am watching the bachelor this season??  Psycho girl left last night.  It won’t be the same.
  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE the show Flipping Out on Bravo.  I need to get my hands on the first two seasons.
  • I am addicted to Bolthouse Farms Green Goodness although my boys claim it looks like a cross between guacamole and puke (I would suggest drinking it out of the bottle- it does look pretty gross when poured into a clear glass) it tastes good though and is full of good for you stuff
  • I have a whole post planned (including pics) of my plans to return to scrapbooking.  I know I have said this before.  I know.  I know.  But I am serious this time.  I HAVE to.  I owe it to Eva.
  • But I am overwhelmed with where to start.  One thing I long to do is find a binder that I like stick with it.  I have a bajillion different binders.  I hate it.  And I only like three ring, and I can’t stand cheap sheet protectors that rip when I insert the layout.  The list goes on.
  • I think I want to get these binders.  They look sturdy.  Part of the reason that I want to SB again is that 2 out of three of my boys REALLY like to look at their books.  I think the other one will too, one day.  You know, when he isn’t a teenager anymore.
  • When I upgraded my camera we got a new printer.  Packaged deal or something.  It is still in the box.  But it will allow me to print from home.  Which is a huge reason I don’t scrap anymore.  I don’t have pictures when I get the urge.  I used to print them from home, and when I did, I scrapped.  But the printer died and the next one I got was horrible, the pictures faded super fast even though they were supposed to last 100 years.  We got the Canon Prixma Pro 9000.  Hopefully it will be a good one.
  • Ok up I go, Eva is now on the floor playing with toys (yippee!) Aimee is on her way to pick up some fabric, and the boys will be home in one hour.
  • What’s for dinner?

    glad you are doing better. if Eva is coughing and it sounds like a barking seal, I say croup-been there done that. No fun. But, yes even that young it can be asthma. When we fostered, we had a little one that had asthma. just watch her breathing, if gets to be too labored, head to the doctor. sick children are no fun, nit sure who feels worse, mom or child. I hope she feels better soon.

    Sounds like you are having a MUCH better day and yea for cake everyday. I don’t know about the cough – I would just listen to it for the rest of today – it could be the air here in Ohio. We are having lasagna, like Meg, but only because I had time to make it yesterday. Have a great night.

    I picked up that very thing at Target yesterday, but wondered if I could find it cheaper and didn’t buy it. Where did you find it??

    They have those Making Memories round thingies at Michaels and you can use the weekly 40% coupon on them. Those binders are great, but very bulky. They take up a lot of space on the shelf — a tad taller than a regular 12 x 12, but hold a lot inside!

    It sounds like a better day for you! That is good. We just bought a new printer too. A Cannon, not sure of the name, but it is nice. I printed some pic’s and they are great. I love that it is wireless, the old one wasn’t and it was so frustrating to want to print something from the laptop!! It takes us awhile to catch up with technology! I am sure everyone has had wireless forever!

    I believe that is the american crafts binder. I love those and use them myself. I love that you can put different size page protectors in the 12×12 binder so you can put all your different size layouts in one spot.

    Where did you get that organizer? want it!!

    It is probably her cold – they won’t diagnose asthma unless it becomes a chronic thing – my son has asthma, so I have been down that road – she could have Bronchitis – sometimes kids get this – it has similar symptoms, but is more of a one-time thing – usually begins with cold/flu. Watch her stomach when she breaths – if it gets hard for her to breath, her stomach will go in farther than normal when she take a breath.

    Tried the Bolthouse green drink today..delish!!! BUT 27GR. OF SUGAR YIKES!!! Odwella and Naked also make similar drinks too. They are both good as well!

    I think Joanna uses binders like that and loves them.
