LIfe.

I am sitting here at Ambers house, we are "hanging out" by both laying on the couch on our laptops and doing seperate tasks.  I was just telling Amber how it's funny how productive I feel getting all my computer stuff done even though if I was doing this same stuff at home I would feel like I was wasting my day away when I could be cooking, cleaning, or doing yardwork. It's all about perspective. 

I love that Becca just posted about dairy and gluten free and I am posting ice cream and cereal. And oh man did they taste good. Baby craves this stuff and this momma indulges. 

A few iphone pictures from the trip to San Juans.  I loved getting to hang out with my family and I smile every time I look through pictures.  Daniel and I at the lavender farm, Paul and my new boat ;), at the top of our "hike" and baby bumpin like crazy.  

On Sunday Paul gave me his wedding ring so that I could take them to the jewelers to get the white gold replated.  I hate dropping our rings off but love the end result.  It was fun to wear his ring for a few hours. :)  And I had on the pearl necklace he gave me a few days before we got married and the white coat I have wanted forever but talked myself out of because seriously, who can keep a white coat clean?  I finally got it for our anniversary at the outlets this year.  At target on Sunday I was really only going to get my mom some dish soap (we love the meyers stuff and we make it into foam soap) and some facewash.  But those candy corns and candy corn oreos were calling my name at the checkout.  The candy corn oreos are super sweet, but I love to have one or two after dinner as a special treat.  

I finally got a new spice rack also!  I have been wanting one for quite some time since mine only took up a little over half of the shelf space and all the other spices were thrown in at random, but never wanted so spend money on one.  Well, at bed bath and beyond I had a 20% off your entire purchase coupon so I decided to splurge on a new spice rack. Best $11 I have spent in a long time.  I guess waiting forever after you want something makes you appreciate it that much more.  I still need to make a few more labels for the bins in that cupboard but overall am quite happy with how it turned out. 

Some of the wrapped Christmas presents.  The rest showed up today and I will wrap them either today or tomorrow, it feels so so good to check that off my list.  The cats were loving all the string and boxes I was using to wrap.  Boxes are "cat traps" and they work quite well. ;)

My lunch has been expanding and shrinking all at the same time.  I have started packing more items but smaller quantities because that is how I have been eating lately.  I eat breakfast when I get to work at 6:45, snack of yogurt and granola at 10ish, lunch at 1ish and then dinner around 6pm and sometimes a snack around 8pm.  

I got some new succlents while in the San Juans and I love them!  They have a happy home in happy new pots on an awesome piece of furniture that was my grandmas.  All those towels and gloves were hers as well.  I love how a blank corner of my house turned into one of my favorite corners. 

The end.  I am off to go swimming and hopefully vacuum my house before the hubby gets home.  I hate how the cats drag litter everywhere, I feel like I vacuum nearly every day off! Soon it will be cold and I will wear slippers everywhere and wont be able to feel the litter...and maybe I won't be as paranoid about how "dirty" it feels. :)
