sosij (sausage) for shower

some of the great spelling e is working out in his head.  here are jenz!  (jeans)

here it says "iT IS A BYODEFl DEAY".  (it is a beautiful day). then he drew of picture of the sun, clouds, grass, and a flower.

Mom I Lav you. Dad I lav you. :)

idea for next year Christmas gifts:  an ornament like this. i could make this!  yarn wrapped around a letter, with cute little cotton puffs and tiny bells randomly around.

i love that R works on food and cooking right now.  he totally is more active in the kitchen!  he makes pancakes pretty regularly for weekend breakfast.  here is was preparing food for a baby shower and he offered to make the sausage and bacon, while i made a breakfast cake and claflautis.

 they both stepped up and helped make these food labels, and decoration pictures with our baby boy shower theme (water, sailboat, anchors, fish).  they were so great.  it was a warm fuzzy Friday night. 

 

thanks to Jonn for giving the OK to rescue bots.  :)  they were both glad to veg out to an episode after all the shower prep.

these are some of my church friends.  I am grateful for them. my life is better because of them.  it was fun to help host this shower for Ms. A.  very excited for her and C to have a little.  they will be great parents.

my waist was thinner back when i bike commuted every day.  now we have to make lots of effort to get to the gym for fitness classes. here we were on our way for an afternoon of family swimming.
