I hate laundry. (actually, I just lectured Elli on using the word hate.) So....I VERY STRONGLY dislike laundry.

My goal for this week is to do one load of laundry a day (vs. 4-6 on Friday). Why do we have so much clothes?!? I think I need to de-clutter...again. And I need to fix the tear in my apron so I don't go through so many clothes. Ugh. I hate laundry. Especially when you live in a place where electricity is soooo blasted expensive that I have to be feeling rich to use the dryer. Which isn't so bad when the sun shines...but...it's been raining...and raining. And Tommy's painting the trim for the windows in the shop...so I don't have half of my covered clothesline space. Sorry. I should be more positive....Positive Mental Attitude! Maybe if I sleep on it it'll help. It better anyway...I have 2 more loads to do that I would really like to get done so I can start the week with all nice clean clothes.

catchup...

I have a burning urge to put a picture of a bottle of ketchup. But, as I am tight on time and it's a miracle this is getting done at all today...I will refrain. Anyway...

Just some pictures from the last few weeks...





Elli's 5th Birthday (January 17)

















she wanted an easter egg cake... (??)



















Gage's 1st Birthday (Feb. 2)









I've been wanting to make this Pavlova (sp?) thing for a while...so I made it for Gage's birthday...if it didn't take so long to upload I would post the video of him throwing everything but the bananas over the side of his tray. Oh well...I personally thought it was delicious :)










Keith...sporting a new scrape.
