things i'm loving right now

...It is the month of love so here is a list (which I haven't done in a while) of the some of the things that I love because they make life easier, more fun, and happier.

*Adjustable tab jeans for boys: I love this! Rhett is so thin and long that most jeans do not fit him right. But someone smart invented adjustable tabs on the inside of the belt line in jeans, so you can pull on the tab and button it for a better fit. Now Rhett can wear a pair of size 6 jeans for the length and as long as I pull the tab to the last button, they fit! And even better, they don't look bad when the tab is pulled that much. Excellent!
*Noah's charming nature: Seth took the boys to a Super Bowl party last night. (I didn't go because I was really tired and had a headache coming on) Later, after the kids went to bed, Seth said that Noah is such a ladies man. When saying their good-byes, Noah went around Seth's co-worker's house and hugged and kissed every woman there. He said one woman that he hadn't met yet, after getting a smack on the cheek by Noah and a sweet hug, said, "He is the sweetest little boy! He just gave me a kiss!" Lots of ahhing. Seth said at least he wasn't shy. :)
*Sara Ivanhoe's Yoga Target Zone DVD: This dvd has 6 routines, just 20 minutes each and it is actually fun. This has helped me keep my goal I made at the beginning of the year to do yoga every day.
*the color-families of blue: I have noticed that I most of my scrapbook layouts have some tone of blue in them lately and you all know I painted my bathroom turquoise. It makes me happy, I guess!

***
This is a start of a busy month for us. Rhett and Noah start Tae Kwon Do tomorrow, so I will let you know how that goes. At the end of the month they will begin soccer (Noah) and t-ball (Rhett) and they are looking forward to that as well.
I'm going to try to organize my closet today. You see that didn't make my list because I'm not looking forward to this at all. But it has to be done.
I gotta go take Rhett to the bus stop now. Which means I need to get something besides my pajamas on. Ha!
Have a great day!

I love your lists! And that you enjoy the little things in life, like adjustable waistbands! Ha!

Nothing wrong with blue. I actually scrapped 6 pages on Saturday, which is the most I've done in months. I'm inspired now, and plan to get back to it tonight!

Gran Valoris told me once that you should have a little bit of blue in every room of your house, for luck. I'm not sure where she got that from, but sounds like you've got it covered!

I love your blogs! And I'm feeling honored that you made me a little famous putting my picture on the web!! (just kidding - I know everyone has their picture on the web, but since you had to explain to me what exactly a "blog" is, I think you can understand where I'm coming from) I had a fantastic weekend and thanks again so much for having me. You and your family are truly amazing people and I am blessed to know you. P.S. - I don't know if I'm doing this correctly, so maybe let me know if you actually see this! Maybe I'll become a blogger too!
