hugs and kisses

This may not look like much to anyone peeking in, (perhaps a mess, or a hazardous area...) but in the imagination of an almost three year old, this is a crib that she herself built for her new baby sister/brother.

Yes it is true, Julia found the empty corner of our 'study' that used to be Su's sewing desk...and she knew JUST what needed to go there.

I was working in the kitchen when she came in and announced that she had made a crib for the baby...so i had to come and see it!

She is so sweet. aawwwww. so thoughtful too.

Anyway. another lovely day that makes me thankful for my family and my saturdays: What this day looks like--
7am-awake and wondering why. not able to sleep any more. body is done sleeping.....twiddle thumbs.
7:06-realize that dave is also awake and twiddling thumbs....so we go out and study Phillipians together. (this is no coincidence....just last night we decided to start a 'morning routine' to get the two of us studying scripture together. mornings made us cringe....but it really is the only consistant time of day....evenings are very unpredictable. so really...God woke us up...no one and nothing else could have! hahaha. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)
8am-Julia sings from her bed, "Twinkle twinkle little star"
8:05-make mocha's for D and I.
8:10-dave watches saturday morning cartoons with the J. (a ritual that began about a month ago.today they watched "THis is Daniel COok" an Ontario based show about a real life boy who just visits different places and learns about stuff. today was: making a self portrait with an artist, learning about whales at a sea world type place, and visiting disney world and finding out what a theme park is. pretty cute.)
8:20-eat breakfast in bed watching "Daniel COok"
9am-Daddy and Julia walk to the market to buy some cheese and find out where cheese comes from. mommy makes supper for guests.
9:30-play. enjoy family.
10am-go shopping for SHEETS for julia' sNEW BED that comes from our friends' home to ours...today!! :)
12noon-lunch and stories and nap time. ahhhh. this is the life.

anyway. i am really excited about J's new bed. i will post pics of Julia in her new bed soon.

loves. enjoy the sunny day folks.
