Things happen for a reason....

I got the most obvious and blantant sign on Sunday. Ferd and I took Ava to the library, as we usually do. We typically tag-team once we're there; one reads with Ava while the other looks for books to read, and switch. So, as we all get together to check out our books, Ferd and I realize that we got the same exact book to read... out of ALL the books in the library. So, I'm currently reading The Seven Spiritual Laws for Parents by Deepak Chopra. So far, I love it.

Making progress...

Thursday, July 23, 2009

Okay, it's about midway through summer vacation... I'm looking at my Summer To Do list and I've tackled most of my tasks =) I've enrolled Ava in Wiggle and Giggles and Mt. Vernon Rec Ctr. She loves it and plays with her friends, Emmy, Chloe, and Isaiah. Her favorite is the parachute.


I decoupaged a table for Ava. She uses her table to eat and do crafts.


I took a Paper Source Class with Kris. I had so much fun. We made paper lanterns, stationary, and boxes with Indian inspired paper and stamps. Here are photos from my phone.

I finally bought frames for stuff prints I've collected. We've framed our Kokua poster, Ava's picture from the Egg Roll at the White House, and a Red Sox poster from 2004.


We went camping in Steamboat Springs, CO. Amazingly, Ava coped well. She even insisted on using the potty there.. ew.

Yesterday, we met Sky and Brooke at Wolf Trap for the Children's Theater in the Woods. We saw Hobey Ford and the second performance was Cathy and Marcy with beatboxer and progressive hip-hop artist, Christylez Bacon. Ava's favorite instrument was the washboard.

Next on my agenda is painting my wall (I've narrowed my colors down to two) and orgainze and file all our docs.
Finish up later.. gotta spend QT with Ferd.
