4 More Days!

So most people, when about to give birth do some nesting. I am assuming that this means that they are getting ready for the baby. Well I did do some of that but mostly I have been obbsesed with working on some projects. I took 2 photography classes, read about DSLR's for dummies, talked with some photographers for some tips. I want to learn how to take GOOD pictures..no beautiful breath taking pictures.


Well, I figure out that it is a gift and I don't really have it. I can come out with some nice pictures (you know after taking a few hundred) but I am sadly understanding it isn't my natural talent like so many people have.
But that is okay.....

I moved on to making headbands.....I collected flowers, material, headbands, glue, felt and started at it. (I know it really sounds like my hormones have gone crazy) I will post some mediocre pictures of them later. As my model, my daughter, has been sick with a cold, who then passed it on to my son who then passed it on to my husband.
I hope and pray I don't get it since I have 4 more days till my c-sect. Yay! I really do want a healthy family when she comes into our lives!
When Charles told me yesterday he felt like he had "it" (the cold) I had a bit of an anxiety attack. But God reminded me of this scripture:



Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Phillipians 4:6

Tactile Learning


We took the playdoo out for some educational tactile learning......
Charlie was to do shapes, notice the attention he was giving the shapes ..hmmm






Johanna was to make numbers and put them in order, she did well!




Charlie most definitely was more interested in his playdoo blob toy. Boys!!
