Sometimes she's in the mood for oatmeal, maybe bacon the next, or just plain cereal. Our pug likes to rest his head on my tummy. -Not yet a big baby bump, but it's become a pillow to rest his soft cuddly cheeks. He did this when I was pregnant with our daughter. He'd fall asleep, and snore on my oh-so-lovely baby bump. -Of course, there were occasional kicks to the head from my daughter resting inside. So far this pregnancy...

Crafting and other things.

We recently took a trip to our bookstore. -I was interested in the glass stone kit they had on their clearance shelf. So lately we have enjoyed painting and creating art on glass stone. I've also enjoyed some time working with my beads, and stamp kit. It has continued to snow here in Colorado, and now that the snow has started to melt...we are being told it will start up again tomorrow night through the rest of the week. Our time is spent indoors. I've been making us sandwiches; sliced tomatoes, lettuce, Turkey- deli meat, banana peppers, and a few other goodies. We picked up a loaf of Italian seasoned bread from the deli, and oh boy, it was delicious! Life has been pretty simple, with a few changes. -I'm so thankful for each new day.
