week 42 in pictures

42. that means there are only 10 weeks left in this year! wow. didn’t 2012 just start???

this week is a little bit not sunday through saturday. I was sick, then we had a birthday, so there are gaps and abundances that fill in the week. I have lots of posts about stuff this week, so be sure to check out the internal links.

sunday: layla snapped some blurry pics of micah and I playing uno after church. 077

monday: hooray for urgent care.2012-10-15

tuesday: micah’s official “last day to be 4” picture.002

wednesday: celebrating micah’s birthday with his preschool class. while waiting for everyone to finish washing their hands, micah requested “the elephant song”. it was enlightening.2012-10-1314

a little one of my gorgeous boy to stick in a center slot.041

he and layla helped me make his birthday cake. licking the beaters is the best… as is watching the cake bake, I guess.2012-10-171

the official 5 year old picture. SO perfect.036

saturday: our wheelbarrow load of pumpkins at the pumpkin patch!166

I have collages from micah’s birthday and the pumpkin patch that I’m also including, but those pics can all be seen in other posts.

and the instagrams… I ran out of my 2x2 (coin collectors) pocket pages, and decided that, assuming I can make it work number-wise and dimensions-wise, I want to try to make a grid collage of the little squares each week… this week it worked. we’ll see what happens next week.

this one will be 8x10:2012-10-18

and this one will be 5x7. micah’s school picture (which he had taken this week) will go on the back side of this in the book, as soon as I get it back.2012-10-20

I know they’re not exactly square. I’m trying not to let it bother me, so I’d appreciate it if you would just pretend they are. thanks so much, you’re the best.

    Happy Belated Birthday to your kiddo! Love the instagram layouts. Honestly I wouldn't have noticed they weren't square if you hadn't pointed it out.

what I wore wednesday

iiiiiiiiiiiiiit’s wednesday again!!! which means it’s time for me to brag about all of my incredibly well-thought out and likely expensive fashion endeavors prove to the world that I didn’t wear jammies all week. well, not all week… wednesday: tank: old navy, thrifted cardigan: handmedown jeans: thrifted flip flops: kohls earrings: target scarf: thrifted I was SO excited to find this scarf! it’s gorgeous! very silvery and shimmery, the blue flowers and so cute, AND it’s short! for somebody like me, who is of the not-so-tall persuasion, really long scarfs (or even standard length scarfs) can sometimes be a little overwhelming. you know? it’s like, “how many times can I wrap this thing around my neck before you can’t see my head anymore?” at any rate, this one is awesome and I love it and expect to see it on me a lot! I also found the process of trying to take a picture to be quite entertaining. I have a ‘people dog’, meaning, wherever her people are, that is where she th...

i’m sure i will offend all sorts people with this…

… but i just don’t get why the entire world is so torn up about the death of michael jackson. yes, he had an insanely successful career as a singer/entertainer/pop star. yes, he took a lot of that to a whole new level. yes, i remember thriller and doing the moonwalk. yes, i remember wanting one of those red leather jackets, and one of those sparkly white gloves. however… i’m also wondering why everyone else is seeming to forget how he bleached his skin (and then had a big hit stating that it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white… always wondered about that one), underwent so much plastic surgery that he barely looked human anymore, made crotch-grabbing an acceptable dance move, hung his kid over a balcony, showed up for court in his pajamas, and, oh yeah, was accused of child molestation HOW MANY TIMES??? this was a VERY disturbed man. i have never understood why being a celebrity excuses people from upholding the same morals and standards that we expect of normal people. i w...

for my not-so-american friends

i didn't have an actual roll w/ the green plaid on it, but i found a refill and an empty roll in my junk drawer (yeah, i know, that should tell me something).  but even the empty one says 'scotch' on it.  there you go!  SCOTCH TAPE!

today rocks

give me a sunny, warm day and i’m happy, pretty much, whatever the day brings. so a sunny day that started with sitting out in the sun with friends, knitting, is just over the top fabulous! yes, i realize i am easily pleased. i’ve actually gotten a lot done since getting home as well. not that you can tell. i just love this phenomenon that goes along with having children. while i’m busy cleaning one part of the house, they’re busy trashing another. it is physically impossible for my entire house to be clean all at once. but oh well, right now i have clean bathrooms, and although the living room is cluttered with toys and other kid paraphernalia, it has been dusted and is about to be vacuumed. sigh. speaking of sigh… well, actually, si , the boys are planning a hike up mt. si on saturday. we’re looking forward to nolan coming up tomorrow evening for a visit. they will be doing this on saturday while layla and i go to a birthday party. then on sunday, we’ll be spending the afternoon at ...
