cleaning…
it feels like I have had a little mini vacation the past few days. i felt bad when my work called & asked me to work on Tuesday, i said no!! im not very good at saying no so i was actually pretty proud of myself. ha. i was in the middle of cleaning the living room, Sophia’s room & my room. the whole house was a disaster. like my mom always says about those projects “you have to go thru the chaos to get to the order” such true words!! it feels good to get a few rooms cleaned out & ready for the carpet cleaners. now i just need to tackle mikayla’s room & jarred’s old room, if you don’t see me for a few days, please send in a search party for me!! i also got my business cards started & im so super excited about them!
i wish i would have taken more of the before, before pictures while cleaning. maybe it is best i don’t have documentation of what a disaster area this place was.
Sophia loves her room!!
before…
after…
and, i love that i just spent two days cleaning out her room, organizing her toys & what does she play with?? the vacuum attachment!! haha.
i love that her books are more accessible & that she has been reaching for them more & we have been reading more in the afternoons.
so, my mom got me the most amazing early birthday gift. a new camera. yes, an amazing, beautiful new camera. there aren’t even words to say how thankful i am mom. thank you just is not enough. but, thank you. the difference is unreal & i have been so inspired to capture everything, even more than usual!! i cant even believe the difference in the quality of my straight out of the camera photos. i took Sophia to lake zorinsky the other night & the images that we got are pure magic. its like i can feel all the feelings coming thru each image & that means the world to me. thank you mom.
a day after i got the camera we went out to lunch. of course i had to video the whole thing!!!
so yah, we may need to work on the table manners a bit!! haha.
