around here lately…..

Jul 20, 2011 | Life in Progress

Around here, lately, it’s been warm (finally!) which means the windows are open and chub chub arms and legs are exposed and soooo cute! True is super into his bouncer. And I love how happy Bella looks in this photo with her airplane ears. John had just finished busting a move (dancing) and Bella and True looked on with whattheheckareyoudoing glee.

We’ve been dining outside a lot and I’ve been indulging in cocktails and coke – two of my fave beverages.

Dani made me my first ever cake pops! How did I not know these were all the rage and oh so YUM?

I have been working. Hard. Working on new ideas, getting ready for the ecourse, new art, new collaborations, new website updates, and more – all notes are written in my trusty idea folder with little tabs galore.

We’ve been scooping up the peonies that are growing in our yard! It feels like a dream to have actual flowers in our yard that we can pick and bring indoors. Love.

Speaking of yard, we’ve been planting flowers, placing rocks, growing grass, moving mulch, planting trees, and so much more. Our yard needs a ton of help as it was neglected for so long (run over by weeds) before we bought this house. It’s coming together! One of my favorite things to do is sit on our porch in the evenings, after True is asleep, and share a drink with John and watch the world go by. Ahhhhh.

Life feels full, overflowing, chaotic, beautiful. I can’t remember the last time I watched tv or played words with friends or sat down to read a book or magazine. The pace is strong and fast but I’m capturing it – the moments, big and small – in my heart and in my spirit. And perhaps out of sheer defiance and a hope that the time will come soon, I bought a book by an author that makes me ache with her honest and tender words. If you haven’t read her first book, it’s an absolute must.

Sending much love,
