The Sunday Somethings, April 26

April 26th, 2009

Others writing The Sunday Somethings: Audrey

Something that made me smile this week: This week, Maddie started calling me “mama!” I’ve been waiting for that for a long time!

Something I’m thinking: I’m thinking about reorganizing my blog tags. My tag cloud is out of control with tags that rarely will get used as well as redundant tags.

Something I am hoping: I’m hoping that everyone will be healthy again soon. Maddie and I have been sick, Gabe has a sunburn from the MS walk, Maddie may or may not be teething, and we’re all tired.

Something happening around the house: We’ve been letting Maddie roam free in much of the downstairs (closely watched, of course). We have several circles that she can run in the house due to the open floorplan. She loves going around and around, especially when we chase her.

Something I’m reading: I read a little bit of Blink at the beginning of the week. I started and finished Shopaholic Takes Manhattan and started on Shopaholic Ties the Knot. I’m enjoying using our library system!

Something tasty I ate this week: Earlier this week, we had pork chops and fresh asparagus. YUM! I’m still enjoying The Produce Box. This week we had our first batch of fresh strawberries.

Something Maddie did this week: Maddie had a photoshoot with Catherine Keene Photography. I can’t wait to see how they turned out!

Something I struggled with this week: Maddie had probably the worst night she has had since her colic days. This happened on Friday night, so we were VERY tired for the MS Walk early Saturday morning. Friday night was awful with lots of screaming and very little sleeping. I think Gabe and I managed to sleep about 2 hours. This reminded me of how bad that it can be. I shouldn’t complain about Maddie’s “normal” nights. It’s also the type of night that makes us question whether or not Maddie really needs a sibling.

Something I’m doing towards my goals: We raised more money for the MS Society. We also booked a a trip to Cincinnati and bought tickets for a Reds game. In June, I should be able to check Attend a home baseball game for the Cincinnati Reds off of my list.

Something I learned this week: Toddler Converse All-Stars look adorable but will not stay on my toddler’s feet. Bummer.

Something I’m looking forward to next week: I’m looking forward to book club – almost forgot we were having it this week! Now I just need to remember The Book Thief, which seems like ages ago.

Something I captured: This year’s Team B-Patrol, representing in the bright, hot sun on Saturday:
