This is a favorite corner in Emma’s room. Of course before I had little girls running around in my home, I never thought there would be a pink room under our roof. But pink it is, and it is all Emma. We just did a little rearranging of her room over the weekend. Acutally, to be more accurate it was a GIANT clean-fest. Her room was a mess. It feels so cosy in her room now. I just love it.
More "corners" folks here.  See the flickr page for more detailed notes on this picture.

I am sitting in front of a giant to-do list, that I’m slowly scratching through. Tomorrow we are headed out for a day trip to Illinois to visit my brother and his wife and son, and to check out the work Dan has been doing. (painting my brother’s recently purchased house) I might as well be going for a week with all the packing I’m doing. It is pathetic, I know. And of course, I have lots of important things to do on my list like do a load of laundry and pack up diapers, but I decided to whip up a batch of granola for my brother instead. It was an easy recipe gathered from a few different places–mostly my sister and a little google search. I embellished this time with some wheat germ, cinnamon and vanilla in the mix. Once it cools I’ll add some raisins and pack it away in a glass jar. And of course, save a little for myself!

And since I feel like sweet Mary has been getting the blog-shaft lately with all this birthday and kitten posting, here’s a favorite picture taken at bathtime the other night. This little girls melts me to the core.
