Sunday was my CHA day but I loved this photo so much that I wanted to
post it. I also didn’t take enough photos at CHA.

that’s christine, michelle, me, gabrielle, tonya, and krista. All
wonderful women.







I wasn’t sure if I was going to go to CHA or not until the last minute.
I kept changing my mind. In the end, I am glad I went. I got to meet all
these new ladies and I got to see Michelle again (whom I love) and it
was fun seeing all the product in person. This year’s show was
considerably emptier than last year, which, for me, was nicer since it
meant I could move around more easily. But it was kind of sad for the
industry.



We also went to the CI and SEI parties on Saturday night and that also
seemed emptier and less interesting than last year, maybe cause it
wasn’t my first time, who knows? They did both have yummy ice
cream…and the CI party had all the Star Wars characters, which mostly
creeped me out.

It might seem silly to you to have two of these in the same month but I
have been dreaming about and working on this workshop for months. I have
dreamed of teaching at Big Picture Scrapbooking for ever. This to me, is
the biggest accomplishment I could have asked for in my scrapbooking.



If you’re interested in journaling, I hope you’ll register
for my workshop. I’ve poured my heart and soul into it and I cannot
wait to get started!

Today started with a dentist’s appointment to make sure the stains on
David’s teeth were just stains. It turns out they were nothing to worry
about and they cleaned them too so now he’s all shiny white.



Early morning David jumped in my bed and we played together. We play
this game where we tell each other how many times we love each other.
Ten times! Twenty times! This morning he said “five teen times!” and
then he leaned over and whispered in my ear “With all my heart.” I love
him so.



And it’s what’s keeping me going right now because I’ve been feeling
really sick and out of it lately. I am constantly tired and can’t seem
to eat anything at all with out feeling terrible afterwards. Considering
I am almost 7 months, that’s just crazy.



We took out the baby stuff this weekend and one of the items was this
little swing which David really likes now and yesterday he buckled his
little teddy in and swung it gently. I think this boy’s ready for a
sibling, don’t you?

Tonight, David asked me to come to the fridge for a minute and I thought
he was going to ask me to help with the letters but when I went there,
this is what I found. Isn’t he the sweetest?



I mistakenly thought it must be a good idea to try to get off the
medication again two days ago and it turns out I was wrong again. I have
severe allergies and was unable to function all day today. Yuk. Back on
the medicine, sadly. And a fully wasted day.



Last night, I had such a surge of love for David that I almost woke him
up just to give him a hug and tell him I loved him. It took all my
strength not to wake him up. It’s really amazing how very much I love him.



Here’s a shot I took while we went out for ice cream this afternoon.

Big day tomorrow. See you then.
