Ten on...Friday

1. And so...I finally settled on #3. Mostly because the colors will work better on my project, which happens to be a "fall" page. Here's a sneak peek:

But, important note to self: do not succumb to any processing trends that will make me cringe five years from now. 

2. It was a week of firsts. First ballet and then the dentist. Of course, some firsts are more exciting then others. Especially when they involve a tutu. 

3. And preschool:

She would not remove the hat. She would not look at the camera. I gave up after seven shots of her holding on to this saw. Just shortly before the teachers branded me the "crazy camera mommy."

4. Had a great visit with a friend of mine. It occurred to me that we have been friends for a long time, and I really like that. 

5. I started Little Man on solids, so I've been reading Cooking for Baby. Cereal is passable, sweet potato is okay, but general consensus on pureed zucchini: Blech.

6. Speaking of food, Sadie must be having a major growth spurt. She asks for "another snack" at least eight times a day. Yesterday, I said, "No more snacks. We need to save your appetite for dinner."

To which she asked, "Did you put it in the refrigerator?"

Me: "What?"

Sadie: "My appetite. Is it in the fridge?" 

7. Have you seen this? 

It makes me feel a smidge better about still getting up three times a night.

8. I really need a haircut.

9. The stack of books on my nightstand are all about photography. I wish I could tuck them under my pillow and learn by osmosis. 

10. We're all ready thinking about Halloween costumes around here. If all goes according to her plans, we are going to have to practice our "yeee-hawws." I'm not sure I'm ready for Wranglers.

Hey - I just went and looked at Amazon.com, and its the same author as the one I am currently using (Cooking for Baby)! We just cooked up some peas today, and it was a success. :)
