1. I love my last name. My married name that is. I love being able to say my last name to people and they say it back and spell it to me and they get it right. I also love being married and my last name is a reminder of the commitment we made. My maiden name was difficult to spell and even more difficult to pronounce. Maraviov. Muh-raw-vee-ove
2. I bought lavender-scented hand soap. I am usually not a big fan of lavender-scented products but this one is very sweet smelling and I’m really loving it.
3. Fern found my tea ball and thought it was an ornament.
4. I put Amelia in Fern’s chair at the dining table. I think she knew she looked like a big girl.
5. I planted beets the other day and I was surprised by what the seeds looked like.
6. Fern tried my glasses on today. She looks like a teenager with them on.
7. I got the plushie I ordered from iviebaby. He (she) sure is cute. I can’t wait to give it to Amelia for Christmas. I guess we will figure out its gender when it gets a name.
8. I found these adorable bee boots for Fern at Ross. I truly couldn’t resist them.
9. I finally realized today that when I tell Fern, “I know,” all she hears is NO. No wonder she gets so grouchy when I say it. #handforehead
10. I found this blog that has tons of free printables for paper toys.

Your house looks so clean in the background of these pictures. I’m always taking pictures, then get depressed because there’s a big old mess in the background. Well done you.

/ December 16, 2011If bears eat beets then what eats lemon balm? I get pretty creative when it comes to taking pictures, in the kitchen especially. Plus, I’ve been trying to get the house clean for Christmas.
