And we meet again...

And we meet again... Breezy weather. Hiking shoes. Nature.  Happy faces. Fresh air. Water bottles. Bumble bees. Colorful butterflies. Big Sunflowers.  Wild weeds/flowers. Oh yes, it's definitely September.  Just living is not enough... one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower. -Hans Christian Andersen I absolutely love this time of year. The air is fresh, the breeze is gentle and we love spending our time out in nature.   We'll hike until baby  starts showing signs of wanting out. I'm going on 39 weeks and I must admit the fresh air, walking and gentle breeze allows me to forget about any discomfort my pregnant body is currently experiencing.  This day, the air was fresh and the smell of rain approached us.  The calming sounds of nature surrounded us. -Buzzing bees, chirping birds and leaves on trees gently blowing in the wind.  -It was a beautiful day....

Hello September.

I love September, especially when we're in it. Willie Stargell Hello September... So many changes will happen this month. We will welcome our newest addition to our little family. Yes, our little family of three will grow into four. I probably should include our pug! So technically our family of four will grow into five. :) - We're so thrilled! We have enjoyed our time out in nature. Taking pictures and breathing in the fresh air.  I started baking again.- The sweet aroma of baked bread, cinnamon-covered almonds, and sugar plum fill our home.  I'm ready for fall to arrive. This is my birth month and I probably should enjoy my birthday a little more this year.  In my garden.. flowers are changing. I still have many visitors. - My favorite are the hummingbirds.  I'm ready. - I'm ready to welcome our baby, bake more, enjoy life more, and take these simple moments and turn them into everlasting memories. ...

Lately.

“Any moment called  now  is always full of possibles.”  ―  China Miéville ,  Kraken Lately. Rain visits us during the day. Nights are cooler and the sun shines perfectly.  We spend our time out on the porch.- Our daughter blowing bubbles and splashing away in her pool. My husband grills and I kick my feet up and enjoy these moments with my family.  Lately. Nature is absolutely beautiful. Rainbows appear after the rain and fields of flowers blow gently in the wind. Normally you can go on long drives and see nothing but sunflowers lining the side of the roads. -It's beautiful.  Lately. I'm nearing the end of this pregnancy.- 38 weeks next week.  I'm nesting, adjusting, and experiencing sleepless nights.  I've been experiencing contractions. Lots of contractions.  I usually sit them out, swaying my hips while sitting on my exercise ball. This is the time that our d...

Little colorful box monster. A craft for little hands

This hands-on craft is so much fun! At times it can get a little messy, but it's tons of fun. My daughter absolutely enjoyed this fun craft. We named it- Little colorful box monster. It's colorful and designed by my daughter.  For this craft you will need: -An empty box. -We used a tissue box.  -Craft/construction paper -Scissors -Paint -Glue stick  -and anything you would like to add to your little monster. stamps, stickers, beads-etc. Since we used a tissue box we can easily insert items into the monster's mouth. -Mail, battery-operated candles, candy, and more!  Get creative when designing your monster box. Cover your box with craft paper. We chose white paper. This made it easy for my daughter to paint and create her own look for it. We added some teeth and a few sparkly stick-on. I promise your kids will enjoy this craft! :) Thanks for stopping by!  Hello and welcome new readers!
