Steam Shower

Today Lil is trying to get over a cough. SO, we put her in the bathroom filled with steam, put vaporub on her chest, and she played the drums on the camode to entertain us. So silly.

Gearing up for 1!

As we gear up for the anniversay of Lily's birth, I remember that at the half way mark we enjoyed an amazing family photo session with our dear friends Sarah, Rosie, and Rosie's family. What special moments were captured in the lense of a camera. This year for christmas everyone got a 6 month book of "Lil"....I didn't order enough and finally just ordered one for myself.

Time...

I should mention that as I was diligently taking "time" for myself to blog....I completely forgot about the 2 chickens I was roasting in the oven to same me "time" later. Arg.

Today, Auntie Nanny set of to take Lili to the Library to first pay my hefty overdue book fees, then play with her in the kids book section to see what they could see. Well, they got there and the library was closed....what to do. So Ingrid call and I said, why don't you take the pad to Davie Park and play for a while. Thank goodness for technology because I was able to get this video in the middle of the day that made me stop and be thankful for what a sweet silly baby that god has blessed us with. Here is her first real swing at the park experience.

And so it begins...

Time....where does it go? Where do we find it? If it's lost, can you get it back? Time...I am always looking for more. Or, am I just not managing with what I have been given?

So often there is always something else I could be doing, cleaning, picking up, scheduling, finishing up an email, talking on the phone. As many of you know, I hate sitting still...I don't nap, I hate to lounge, I just don't find use in it. Until now.... I am taking an active step in MAKING myself relax. Part of that task, is working on my blog. So, although I started this blog one sunday afternoon while I was pregnant and dreaming about all the wonderful things I was going to blog about....here it is almost a year later and I am now getting around to my first blog post. Sad, I know. But I am now committed....to myself. (and my blog)
