Little Things

There's been so much going on around here and as a result somehow I'm slacking as a blogger. So here are some of the little things going on around here.

Elijah's first tooth came through on Sunday. It's barely through, but it's there.

Vern finally bought me a bag of candy corn. I ate it until the sick point last night & figured I'd ration it from there on out. I'm feeling a little sick from it again at the moment. Must learn restraint when it comes to yummy little candies.

Vern stayed home from work yesterday. Now our disposal and dishwasher work again. Yay!

Lisi sent us some Canadian Oreos in her latest package. Yum!

Lauren left yesterday for the middle East again. She's going on another Beit-Lehi archeological dig. Lucky girl.

Devan & Amanda liked their pictures. Yay!

Little Vern told me I'm not that old when we were playing earlier. Yay me!

Kirsten left me a cute little note & picture this morning.

Elijah fell asleep while I was typing. I can close my eyes here for a minute too. :o)

Cheeks

I love baby cheeks. Elijah's just might be the cutest ones ever.

wish me luck

Ah, Elijah is asleep & LV is happily playing. People who were waiting for CDs & pictures are no longer waiting. I have a moment for me. Yay me! How bad is it that I just want to relax & do nothing? The list of stuff is still long, even with some things checked off. The ever-looming pile of things awaiting my attention. I could just plug along, but a little breather is a nice idea. Just for a little while. I want to open my window and close my eyes. To cuddle with Elijah. And try to feel calm and not think about anything.

Oh. And I want onion rings. From Hires. Sending Vern the "stop at Hires" vibe for on his way home from work. Somehow this request has yet to be fulfilled, I've been asking for days. Maybe today I'll get lucky.

Kerplunk

Little Vern waited patiently for me to take this shot before we played.

He didn't ask why I was taking a picture of our set-up Kerplunk game.

He is, after all, a photgrapher's son.

And on a personal note...

My baby is growing up way too fast.


Look at him go! Almost 7 months old now, he's got great balance, is crawling and moving around & working on those teeth.
