Back to the Basics

Remember life before you planned everything? Like when you would just leave the house, not really knowing where you were going but confident that you would find fun somewhere along the way? Well, I feel like I go through ups and downs of being like that. Lately it seems like more often than not I have to know what the "fun" is that I'm seeking before I leave the house. But, on Saturday, I remembered- really all we have to do is leave the house and we seem to enjoy life a little better as a family. No distractions (ie" March madness!), just fresh air and QT. We went down to 3rd Street and just mosied around. We listened to some of our favorite street performers.

ok- timeout. Dallin B just walked in after a very short nap. I asked him why he was awake already and he said he had enough sleep. I said, "Well, we need to cut your hair anyway." He said, "Yeah, cuz it's getting crazy. You wanna know why I woke up, Mom? Cuz I felt like my hair was getting crazy." Ok. Looks like I better hurry and get him a haircut in real quick.

Anyways, it was just good being out. We did manage to squeeze in a little March Madness. We had lunch at Yankee Doodle and watched one of the games on "the hugest tv ever."


These sunglasses are staged and suggested, but not by me. Dallin B is the one running his and Porter's show. His way or the highway....





This is probably as close to a belly shot as you are going to get. Taneal, I hope this suffices. I hope this picture somehow conveys my aching back, my inabililty to bend over- can barely put my shoes on anymore, and my basic discomfort! Unfortunately, T, it also hides other growing parts but oh have they grown. You'd be proud!

You call that a belly? You've definitely never seen what I look like pregnant. I like this post... I never do anything without planning so thanks for the inspiration.
