10 on Tuesday (except it is Wednesday)
Work with me here people. My head is swimming. So I missed it…my mom didn’t even call me as a reminder (Mom, where are you?) So let me explain why I can’t seem to get my days straight!
1. Yesterday consisted of: driving the carpool for all the neighborhood kids on our block, forgetting that my babysitter couldn’t come for J’s violin lesson, taking J and a not-so-happy-to-be-at-violin-lessons toddler to said lesson, getting fingerprinted and mailing off results to the KBI, getting my criminal check forms notarized at the bank, mailing our criminal checks, seeing the specialist at KU Med to review recent medical tests, taking the written test to re-new my driver’s license, standing in lines to get my renewed driver’s license, a trip through Marshall’s for a birthday gift, and watching a video on trans-racial adoption. If there is a facet of U.S. government bureaucracy that I missed I challenge you to find it 
I was a wee bit tired this morning.
2. When I asked J how her day at preschool went today she said, “Oh it was wonderfully encouraging!” Funny little 4 year old.
3. Sam.is.into.everything.
4. My mind is starting to wander to how I will reposition everyone in their new rooms once baby comes home. The girls are going to share a room (and they are pretty excited about this). I just found THESE quilts at my local Target and went ahead and purchased two since they had 2 left on the shelf. If I go with these the room will coordinate great with the playroom (they are adjacent) and I won’t have to re-paint or change out any of the furniture. I’m really sad to move J out of HER ROOM though…it was such a labor of love Maybe I will auction off her quilt to raise money for the adoption?!? Our little man will also need to move to that room in his big boy bed so we can use the crib for the new baby. So now I am also looking for bedding for him…cause I CAN NOT SPEND $400 to buy him the BEDDING that matches his nursery. It IS cute…but HOLY COW!
5. Good news: I made over $600 on my kids clothing garage sale last week. Bad news: I still have LOTS left. So if you are looking for baby boy or toddler girl and live locally…can you please come buy the rest?
6. I’m really hungry while typing this and need to find my bag of M&Ms.
7. I HEART FALL.
8. My sister (The Librarian) joined the blogging world to document her journey towards her daughter in Peru. STOP BY and leave her an encouraging word if you are so obliged.
9. Since it is Wednesday and I am doing “10 on Tuesday”, I suppose I should get a photo ready for “Wordless Wednesday” that will actually fall on Thursday huh?
10. It is about to get CRAZY BUSY with fall sessions…get ready for some serious sneak peaks coming up on the blog!
Hi. I have the “older” pottery barn airplane bedding. We recently moved and I changed out my sons room. It has basically just set at the bottom of his bed for three years and has no stains or defects. Extra pillows also. Email me if your interested because its just sitting in the closet (no pets or smoking).
No!!!! Don’t sell J’s quilt! It’s too beautiful to part with. Can’t you just see her pulling it out for use at slumber parties or taking it with her to college and using it on her dorm room bed (don’t think about that last one too long)? Or, you could always drape it over the back of a chair in their new room or folded at the end of her bed.
I love the new comforters you snatched up for their shared room. I would have done the same if we didn’t already have bedding. I just put the Love & Nature wall applques up in their room and it looks smashing.
