...I hate voting. But I do the research and go because it matters. If someone like me, who really cares what happens in our local and federal government, hates voting, then why does it always surprise me that voting rates are so low?
...It's Aaron's birthday this weekend, and I'm making raspberry cheesecake. We're going to his Mom's house for lasagne even though he really wanted corned beef and cabbage. Oh well, it's gonna be a blast. I love my mother-in-law. :)
...I'm finally back to pre-prego size, but 7 pounds heavier still. Does that matter, or does size count more? I can't find time to buy more clothes, even though Aaron gave me permission to do it. Grrr...
...I can't fight the urge to decorate for Christmas, and ever since I learned that you can go cut down any tree in the nat'l forest that you want for $10 I have wanted to go get one. I don't think I can make it last for two months though.
...Must start on Christmas gifts. I have the best intentions every year of getting on top of this, but I still have no idea what to get for about half of my family. It helps that I've decided to only gift family members though. It takes a lot of stress off. I know that I don't expect anything from friends, so why do I feel like they do from me? They probably don't, so I'm going to assume that. Whew...
Esther LOVES her daddy! He plays with her and reads to her when mommy's too tired. :)
My darling little family. I love them both so much!
I love the look on Esther's face in this one, my face, not so much. :)
Esther's favorite thing to do is take toys out of something, or the DVDs out of the basket, or really take anything out of it's container and sprawl it's contents on the floor.
