Ramblings
* Ruthie sang the ABC song by herself today. She missed 4 letters but didn’t let missing them mess her up. I’m so proud of her. Her song repertoire has increased the last few days. She now has me sing the green lizard song, the Bob song, the cloud song, the tree song……. of course they are all made up, don’t make a lick of sense, but she seems to like them. 
* Samuel loves to read these days. He says “book” fairly well (or maybe only mama could really understand the difference between “book” and “bear”) and smiles so big when you agree to get him in your lap with a book.
* Samuel has cut 4 teeth in recent weeks with another 2 in the wings. Its been rough both on him and me.
* I won’t be posting pictures on the site until we find the Photoshop disc to load on my new computer. Hopefully it won’t be too long.
* Ruthie told me today that she was going on a trip, would be back soon, and would send me a postcard.
* I’m beginning to be very anxious to start the work on the house. 2 weeks seems like a long time. New floor, a new microwave, some crown molding, a new window, and half a kitchen. Let’s get this party started already.
* I have been craving a strawberry rhubarb pie.
* We picked up our portion of the cow we purchased last week. It turned out to about 75 lbs of beef. It is fabulously lean and tastes great. An extra plus that it is locally raised, grain, hand fed, and limited vaccinations.

Did you sell your house, or are you just upgrading your kitchen? Installing a new floor, etc. doesn’t sound like a party to me, but whatever floats your boat!

No, we haven’t sold yet. We’re just trying to make our house stand out from the others that are just like it on the block. I’m sure it is going to be interesting trying to do all of this with kids around so it probably won’t be a party but…..

Upgrading the kitchen has it’s headaches but it’s always worth the effort in the end. Crown moulding is always a great touch!
