Today is our last stay at home day! I'm hoping to fill it with all the mundaine things I know I'll be missing by next week--dishes, laundry, walks and baths! I am still experiancing that working mom/ child in day care nervousness. Will she cry all day? Will I cry all day? Will she be abducted by aliens on the playground? Sigh...the worries of a parent!

We had a great weekend playing with as little work as possible! Hanni came over and we went to Saturday market, went to tea, ran errands, did a little yard work and saw a movie! We love family!! This is my last week home with Isa before I head back to work. I'm both excited (especially since it will probably require a shopping trip to buy new clothes) and nervous. It will probably be good for both of us, but I may be a mess for a week or so.



We've had a fun week of playing and painting!...

We've had a fun week of playing and painting!Isabell's room is still unfinished, but I'm bound and determined to have baby Banks' room done! We hid inside today--out of the sun. I'm hoping it cools off a bit tonight, so we can eat outside. Hanni is coming over this weekend, and hopefully I can get a little farther with the yard stuff!

Happy Father's Day! Robbie ran off with Darren this morning to play golf. I hope they have a chance to unwind a bit, but that's not vary likely when you're trying to get that darn ball into that little hole in the ground!
The last few days have been very exciting. Thursday night Sadie watched Isa while we went to the retirement party of one of Robbie's co-workers. Friday night was Dad's surprise retirement party. We ducked out early (as new parents tend to do), and I had to smile at the woman who sighed at us and said "I'm glad my kids are grown!" Yesterday we helped Adam, Jamie and Sam move into their new house. Isa had a blast visiting with everyone. So much so that she went to bed at 5:30pm! Today we're just kicking back while the dad's play.

Happy Birthday to Sadie!! Great fun was had by all at Mom and Dick's this morning. There was a yummy birthday brunch for Sadie, with plenty of tame gifts and less then perfect waffels! Sadie and I made one of her famouse sorbet bombes for tomarrows dessert aution. You can all come by and bid if you'd like--after church (11ish).
This afternoon we lazed around, and Isa went for a nap at 4:30pm that turned into bedtime! Hopefully that means we can snuggel up and actually watch and entire movie.



I've been having creative distress lately

June 07, 2001 by Seraph in Cortez

I've been having creative distress lately. The need to do anything hands one or crafty...but no time or oppertunity! Today I re-potted a plant and made a small blanket for Isa's bed(out of an old curtin). But I can only do things that take ten minutes or a babysitter! Our yard has been finished-down to the last tubber-on paper that is! O- the joys of having a four month old! (Those of you with older kiddos please don't comment. I like to pretent that it will get easier!)

Robbie played hookie today and we took Isa to the coast for the first time. We went up to Heceta Head lighthouse and to Lovejoy's for tea. A fun time was had by all. If any one from EEI is reading this, Robbie really is lying on the floor quite ill!

It's raining outside and Robbie's making chocolate chip cookies. It feels a lot like spring, not summer! This baking project is a big step for Robbie. The last time he made cookies he confused the Teaspoon and the Tablespoon...well lets say it wasn't Tollhouse! This afternoon our youth group is taking in cans we've collected for care packages for the church mission project. Next weekend we're holding a dessert action to raise money for camp scholarships. Thanks mom for your contribution, everyone was thrilled!
