more wants!!!!!

ok so we went shopping last night for a baby gift for my girlfriend andrea. i left baby gap feeling downright depressed. i want- i want- i need- another baby!!!!! does'nt anyone want to have one for me? londy needs a little brother -jackson and a sister- hannah. it is silly how ones heart can actually hurt for something you want so badly!!

fall fever

I'm getting fall fever! i want to have cool weather and marshmallows. i want Halloween and fires. I want to feel a chill instead of this horrible heat and humidity. I'm seeing pumpkins and leaves at the stores and I'm feelin it!

the coupon bug

its official im a nerd and i have a new obsession! i know ,i know, like i don't have enough already but this is fun to me. an excuse to be organized and a way to save money?! im all over that. so i will keep all posted on how it is going. just yesterday i bought a couple of things at walgreens. i paid $7 and i saved $8. not bad hugh?

stolen thoughts

so my girlfriend lindsey told me months ago about a tutu website for londy. i thought they were so cute and picked one up for her birthday. now lindsey and i are both getting into photography more and more and love each others ideas. she took pictures of her girls in denim and their tutus. i had to copy and look at the cute result! thanks linds for sharing your ideas. hopefully once londy is in school i will have some more time to play with my camera and get good at this whole picture taking thing.

no talent!

So it is a well know fact that i am not a talented girl. cute? you bet! nice?absolutely(well most of the time) fun and silly? that is a given! but talented???! not so much. i have been working on my business lately and just wish i was more creative or able to make up cute signs/designs like this cute scrap page i found on the Internet. i had a girl in one of my young women classes tell me during a lesson on talents that she simply did not have any. no musical or artistic talent to speak of and not a great athlete or particularly creative either. I SO KNOW HOW SHE FEELS!!!! i think part of it is laziness on my part not taking the time to scrapbook or learn a musical instrument. as a child i always felt guilty doing things for me and asking for lessons to karate, soccer, piano and others just felt greedy so i never asked. how is it that some are born so amazing at cooking, sewing, singing, painting and the rest of us just pine away for those talents and pity the fool who marries us? well enough whining for now! i have always said if you don't like something change it but how to get talents you just don't have???

She had so much fun! and i think we did too! i have not been to the circus in years and it was cool. i cant imagine living their life and traveling all the time. i guess you had better like who you work with right? anyways i love the swinging trapeze and the tigers. london thought the elephants were amazing and sat mesmerized for the tigers. of coarse there was to popcorn, nachos and ice cream to top it all off. all in all a great night.
