Don't have a lot of time for writing right now, just wanted to share these real quick. Earlier this evening I pulled out some of Eva's toys that have been sitting on the nursery shelves for the last 2 months. And boy am I glad I had grabbed the camera! Now she isn't ACTUALLY reading to the bear, but it sure looks like it! She was so happy just sitting (propped) up and looking at the book! These are going to be a couple of my favorite photos of Eva I think....
Yard Sale finds
This past Thursday was Eva's 2 month check-up and first round of shots. Thankfully Nick took the day off from work and went with me, he was the calm one when Eva started screaming bloody murder when they did her shots. Later that afternoon Eva was real sleepy, so Nick stayed home with her and I took advantage of the free time and hit a few yard sales I had spotted when we were taking Eva to her appt.
I grew up going to yard sales, the salvation army, looking for the bargain rack, and wearing hand-me-downs. I'm not opposed to buying something used as long as its in good condition, and has a decent price. I found a whole bunch of stuff as you can see, all for Eva, and all for $7.35.
Cool summer evenings
Some evenings after dinner Nick and I like to take Eva out onto our little "patio" area and sit on our swing. Its so relaxing. We really enjoy the quiet and the absence of the construction noise from the bridge...
We'll just chat while we swing, or Nick will hold Eva and I will work in my little garden. Its times like these that make me stop and think: "Life is good. And we are so blessed."
