Happy birthday to me

Happy 27th birthday to me!!! Tonight and this weekend is going to be filled with family, friends, fun activities and an overall fun birthday weekend! Here's to my 27th year, I hope it's a healthy, fun and unforgettably good year!!

Is it really that time?

I can't believe it's time to register Claire for preschool. Well, the time came and we did it. She's officially register for preschool two days a week, from 12:00-2:30pm. I'm actually excited for her! It's another milestone to be thankful for. She's an advanced little girl, who is going to fully benefit fom preschool. I can't wait to see what she makes in art, attended her holiday parties and travel with her on field trips! It will be a change but one I will imbrace. She's getting so big and I'm truly enjoying every single minute of her!

Hello everyone!

Life was super crazy for a while, from Christmas to traveling, work, Claire and family things my head was spinning the majority of my days! We had a fabulous Christmas in Nebraska with my extended family! Santa was good to us all! Claire loved Christmas, she took an hour and a half to open all of her presents. She would open one and have to take it out of the box immediately. This year we got to celebrate Christmas 3 times! We are truly blessed with some many wonderful people in our lives!

Finally, Chicago is "enjoying" our first couple of true snow falls of the year! Claire is LOVING the snow! Every morning when she sees we got more new snow, she ask to stick her bare toes in the snow! She laughs her very fake silly laugh and says, burrrr cold snow!"

Claire is an amazing 2 1/2 year old. She amazes me every day with her actions and her words! Her vocab/ sentence structure is great! She is a regular talking machine and literally she doesn't stop talking or singing some of her favorite songs until she falls asleep at night! She's awesome and I simply love her to pieces!!

I hope everyone has a great Thursday! Tonight we will be having play date/ dinner with our friends!!

My Heart...

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling) .
i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you .
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

#18: I am thankful for - family fundays. I LOVE them and we try to do something family orientate every other weekend. I am so thankful that we have a lot to do in our area from expensive to free. Last weekend, we went hiking at one of our favorite places. The were millions of leaves on the ground, the smell of fall was very prevalent and we were together, just the three of us. I really enjoy our "alone" family time together. I can't wait to do it again!!

Happy Friday from Claire and I. It's a super windy day (again) in our area but who cares, when the day is Friday! We have a pretty easy going weekend. We are going to do a little light Christmas shopping, check out a vendor show ( that I don't have to work), celebrate Eric's mom's birthday at one of our favorite pizza places and then Sunday, I have a vendor show (hoping to make a ton- fingers crossed!)
I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

#16 - I am thankful for our neighborhood. We are close to our friends and family. We are walking distance to restaurants and shopping. I wasn't sure if I could ever call northwest Indiana home but it's really starting to grow on me!

#17 - I am thankful for the website "pinterest"! It's SO much fun and SO overly addicting. I've gotten some amazing ideas from this website! It's a great place to show your style and who you really are while find out about others! Check it out for sure: www.pinterest.com
