and sitting still is somethign i have to do in order to be online. i've been running, running every day and sewing, and painting, and GARDENING.........
my mom got me seriously hooked on the plant thing. i got my first pot all planted, let gus plant a cherry tomato start that he named Cookie Plant, we did the garden which is coming up...and i can't wait to dig up the east side of the house to do something there. the cuteness of the house is all on one side.
i havent used the dryer in a week. all the clothes go on the line. we are pretty much living outside. we went for a hike last saturday and saw all the green-august pointed out how different it looked than last time, just a few weeks ago, when everything was pretty much all brown. we saw 5 wild turkeys, a pheasant, and one deer in an hour!
mothers day was spent with both sides of our family meeting in the middle at miller park in bloomington. we spent all day there and toured the zoo at the end. august had a blast, and hudson perked up when he was plopped in the beco for a while to relax.
i have fallen in love with taboule. hudson knows 9 words now, including apple, and he has climbed up into august's toddler bed to take a nap. august is learning how to pedal on a trike, and will be getting a balance bike soon. we have already encountered enough splinters and scraped knees for me, but i'm sure the season will bring many more.
we've been in our house for two years now and i love it more every day. i love it for what it is and i do not wish it to be something it is not: new, spacious, drywall-smelling. i love the homey way it smells and the way the sun shines in august's room in the morning. i love the way our backyard tree makes the yard seem room-ish and private. i don't even mind the lack of a dishwasher. i love our kitchen.
i've taken a forced night off from running due to a throbbing knee, but i've plowed through ten pounds already and it feels so so good. i have pics to post of all my the things going on around me, and i promise to post them soon.
