TheSimpleWoman'sDaybook

FOR TODAY...Tuesday August 25, 2009



Outside my window...the sun is rising.

I am thinking...about our family's future.

I am thankful for...heartburn meds.

From the learning rooms...We will read the story of the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well.

From the kitchen...Pancakes for breakfast, grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch, a pork roast and baked sweet potatoes for dinner.

I am wearing...my yellow, butterfly nightgown and Brian's socks.

I am creating...another baby boy.

I am going...nowhere today. Kylie has ballet this afternoon, but Brian will probably take her.

I am reading...some very good books right now.

I am hoping...the mosquitoes go away soon.

I am hearing...Aladdin and Jasmine sing.

Around the house...we are still looking for the Netflix DVD we lost, and by the way Rik...we found Bolt...we'll send it your way soon...after we watch it ONE MORE TIME :)

One of my favorite things...smiley, happy 1 year old little boys...good morning everyone, Benny says "HI"

A few plans for the rest of the week: football sign ups, ballet, puppet practice (Kylie has a new hobby), youth group, TJ's ear check up Friday...

Here is picture thought I am sharing with you...

Kylie has inherited my love for babies, hasn't she???

Soldier's Wives...

...find video of Army tanks pulling up to Kroger gas pumps on their digital cameras :)

...even "Big Boys" who deal with soldier stuff everyday can't help but think it's "too cool" to drive around town in a tank!

Daybook Entry, August 17th

FOR TODAY...Monday, August 17, 2009

OUTSIDE MY WINDOW...A typical, hot, humid summer day in Northeast Arkansas...we're inside eating oatmeal cookies and finishing up a movie!

I AM THINKING...about my Grandma Dutchie, and how she's feeling...

I AM THANKFUL FOR...air conditioning...how I love our new home with central air!

FROM THE LEARNING ROOM...We took a few days off to visit with Nana and the Hardys.

FROM THE KITCHEN...Brian will probably do dinner tonight...Ballet starts back up today, and I'll be up at the Arts Studio from 4-5:30pm.

I AM WEARING...a red maternity tee and black capri pants.

I AM CREATING...a new blog, do you like it?

I AM GOING...to ballet 4 nights this week!!!

I AM READING...On the Banks of Plum Creek...I finished Family Driven Faith last weekend, if you haven't read it, you should!

I AM HOPING AND PRAYING...for my mom and sister's trip home to go safely.

I AM HEARING...Benny fussing...he has just woken up from his afternoon nap.

AROUND THE HOUSE...we are just picking up and putting away EVERYTHING...with 7 little boys in the house, it tends to get a little "disasterous"...OK, so Grayson didn't make a mess...but the other 6 little boys did!!!

ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS...is blogging, I'm so happy to be back doing it, I missed it!

A FEW PLANS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK...Ballet and School
