16 things

I am loving about this summer:
Oy.  Still catching up here.  

1) Juniper wanting to wear a swimsuit first thing in the morning.

2) The fact that I can open a zip-lock bag makes me a magician.

3) June bugs hungry for new books (thankfully, we'll soon be moving to a town with a library!).

4) The simple satisfaction of diapers on the line.

5) Juniper's hillbilly stomp.

6) Swimming lessons with my little crocodile.  

7) June bug's favorite sing-song chant: One, two, buckle my shoe.  Except it comes out as: One, two, bump-a-shoe, and she'll sing it half-asleep in the middle of the night.  

8) Words, words, words!!  Juniper now finishes the sentences from her favorite books and songs.  (The Sleepy Little Mouse, I'm A Big Sister and John Denver's "Country Roads".)  

9) J bug's obsession with her new monkey, which is actually a child harness I used last Wednesday at the airport.

10) Summer.

11) Finger painting.

12) That everyone gets a diaper.

13) The fact that our last-minute, why-the-hell-not veggie garden is doing pretty well.

14) Summer vegetables.  (No.  We didn't grow this one.  The corn, I mean.  Somehow, we did grow those crystal blue eyes.)  

15) The tiny kicking babe in my belly.

16) French Toast.

  1. OMG I love your blog. I found you through Nici & LOL I was JUST reading about her chubby preg post with Ruby. It brightened my day too (& I noted it for next pregnancy!) LOL! Your pictures are gorgeous & Juniper is adorable. The pics rolling about with the dog & the diaper around the hippo. Awesome! Reminds me of Sneaky constantly wanted his cars to breastfeed. I love that they run on breastmilk (so environmental!) Following you! : )
