My mama once made an offhand comment when asked if she had seen this particular tv show in the '90s and she said "I was too busy raising my kids." And boy, was she right! Its so hard keeping up with everything- the news, the weather, etc. If I don't glance it on a headline or hear a soundbite somewhere I am totally out of the loop. I pretty much missed most of Hurricane Ike- I only really heard about it when the gas prices started rising. But I am glad that I am so busy raising my son, that its okay!!
Well, also not to mention a house full of animals- really. I have 2 cats, my parents have 2 cats, 1 dog and I am turtle-sitting 2 turtles for the last month or so. So on a daily basis I take care of 7 animals!
I am starting to get excited about Rosh Hashanah. I have purchased the new year cards (5769 is pretty exciting!), I am figuring out what where we are gonna get family portraits and I am going to try my hand at round raisin challah and apple cake! Also I am going to do something special for my Sunday School class just not sure what yet... I think we are going to exchange new years cards and do something apple related!
On the Halloween/Fall front, Eli, myself, my sister and her boyfriend are going to go pumpkin picking this Sunday! I have to buy some cooking pumpkins and make a batch of pumpkin breads with a variety of things in them; freeze 'em, and enjoy all thoroughout Oct/Nov :)
But Eli is 14 weeks now. He can laugh now. His vision has improved tremendously- he can follow you as you walk across a room and he's starting to see other people/animals around him and just watching. He has half rolled and I am waiting anyday now for the full roll. He is a very vocal baby with his coo and squeaks.. It's tres cute- and he still sleeps through the nite!
Alright must go- feeding time :)
