No pictures of Nora and Elyn-sorry!

But, here are some thoughts:

I went to look for Easter dresses this weekend for my children. Why do department stores only carry miniature prom dresses for Easter? It's annoying. I am going for a certain look and have limited opportunities to look for it. Yes, I realize I could order it online. I just enjoy going and looking at the sweet dresses in person. Hopefully, after my lessons from Danna, I will be able to make my own. Hopefully. (sidenote: I have visuals of the dresses I am describing, but blogger is not letting me add them...maybe tomorrow.)

Ughhh...Daylight savings time. It's definitely a love/hate relationship. I hate that I lost an hour of sleep last night, but loved that Nora was able to play outside after 6pm tonight. Here is to hoping she sleeps past 7am tomorrow. Oh, please!

It's about time for baby boot camp around here. Elyn sleeps like a champ when she is swaddled. I know I have mentioned before that I will swaddle her forever, but really, when is she too old to be swaddled? Should I start weaning her of that? I'm usually under the mindset of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" but part of me thinks that the longer I wait the harder it is going to be. She'll be in college and have to ask her roommate to buckle her straight jacket for her so she can get a good nights sleep.

I love the people in my home Bible study! We had great discussion tonight. It is so nice to be completely open with a group of people and not feel ashamed or uncomfortable. God has truly blessed us with them.

I am so tired of the arrangement of my living room furniture!!!!! It is driving me crazy. My couch is currently up against a wall and I do not like it. B.K. (before kids), we had our couch away from all walls. I loved it but it really cut down on our space. And those of you with kids know that when you add a child to your residence you also add a ton of stuff. With our old arrangement we were constantly tripping over swings, bouncy seats, exersaucers, and jumparoos. So, the couch was shoved against a wall, opening things up.

Our house is not huge but our furniture is. And it bothers me. I really want a new couch, but it is impractical. A new couch would only suffer stains and crayon markings. Our current couch has already had to endure those so why make another couch suffer too? Also, I would love to get rid of our entertainment cabinet. It is really nice, houses our t.v. and other electronics, but takes up sooooooo much space. My solution? Just get a flat screen and mount it on the wall. Definitely a space saver, but a tad pricey. Probably not going to happen.

So, after spending several hours yesterday, moving around furniture (HUGE furniture) to see if we could find a better arrangement, we ended the day with everything right where it had started.

At least I got to clean under the couch...a very embarrassing sight!

And that is my smorgasboard of thoughts.
