Naturally Optimistic

Dahlia went up to "Children's Time" yesterday at church for the first time. She was pretty wary - but she was curious. Steve went with her. She only lasted a couple of minutes, but I think it was progress!

My Mom got this little hand-knitted sweater at a 4th of July Auction in the booming town of Morristown last year for my niece Hannah (the auction - long story, they have a WIDE variety of interesting and sometimes weird items to bid on....). Of course once Hannah grew out of it it came to our house. I don't think my sister liked it...but I LOVE IT. I think it's so cute on her. I think it makes her look like a little kewpie doll and I wish that I was talented enough to make cute little sweaters for her. And tis the season where an little extra layer of warmth doesn't hurt. Okay- time to wash prunes & waffles off the kewpie doll's face! Happy Monday!

Steve bought me a new water bottle yesterday (early b-day present) as he doesn't want me drinking out of plastic so much while I'm pregnant (usually I use a Nalgene). This SIGG water bottle was so cute, I couldn't resist! And a perfect start to Kelli's "Green Week" . Have any Green habits you'd like to share?

Eeek, my adorable niece & nephews came home this week. I'm so happy for my sister & brother-in-law that their new ones are doing so well. And are SO cute. Here they are modeling their "going home" outfits from Auntie Carrie & Uncle Steve (eeek, that still sounds so weird!). They are Josh, Hannah & George in order left to right.
