Out the Door ...


Not to have a baby!

Taylor, Carter, and Jack just got on the bus. Mason is supposed to start preschool at 8:35 a.m., and it's 8:20 -- and it takes 20 minutes to get there!

But I just had to share some lovely goodies I received in the mail yesterday.

A bib and two burp cloths from Beki. They are made with barnyard animal flannel on the front, cotton terry on the back, and topstitched with a zig-zag. The bib has a red snap closure. So cute. And so soft. I can't wait to use them on my new babe. She is definitely an artsy-crafty-babe! (Did you see how cute she is? I didn't just sound gay, did I?) Thank you, Beki!

Cute, cute. She really did a great job - it looks so soft and fun!

And when you're in labor, are you going to stop to blog? I'd say judging by you past behavior, the answer is YES, you wil.

Reusable Swiffer WetJet Cloths

Image
I promised myself that, when I bought a box of Swiffer WetJet refills at the wholesale club, it would be the last box I bought. Something had to be done. Now, to be honest, part of the reason was to help the environment, but the other part was because I was tired of running out of those darn things. I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away. You will have a clean floor and have saved one more thing from ending up in the landfill. Now, if I can just do something about the cleaning liquid ... Something environmentally-friendly, economical, and won't cause further pain to my arthritic back.

39

It's that time of year again. The one that seems to come faster and closer every year. Yes, today I am 39. (That means I'm almost 40! Aaaahh!) To keep in tradition with years' past , I decided to do a list of things you might not know about me . (My best friend loves these posts, so this is in honor of her. You know who you are.) I ran 1 3/4 miles this morning. I gained 3-4 pounds after Sawyer weaned himself this year. Since starting to run, Joe has said that my thighs are "as tight as when we were first married." I didn't realize my thighs weren't tight. Hmmm. I guess six kids can do that to you. I need a new mattress. We bought our last mattress when I was in labor with Carter . That was ten years ago. We also bought a set of bunk beds that day. I want a new sofa. Actually two new sofas. I'm waiting until Sawyer is potty-trained. I'm planning on training him as soon as school lets out in June. Sometimes I plan ahead. Sometimes I procrasti
