best of intentions

i had the best of intentions...

i was planning to blog this week...

i was...really...

to share more from elizabeth's birthday party....

to give a peek into our days...

to share some pics of the sweet outfit i have been sewing for jillian...

...and on and on...

but, alas, life just keeps moving, and i've barely had time to check e-mail, much less post a blog...

...i have been cleaning...and reading library books....and sewing....and disciplining...and trying to keep up with jillian (who is into everything...and i do mean everything).

...i have been doing more cleaning...a bit of cooking...visiting a friend...napping...more disciplining...and more cleaning (in fact, mostly cleaning the same areas and things over and over and over again....).

...and now instead of putting up that nice blog post full of pictures and smiles and so forth, i am going to head upstairs and do some packing...for an impromptu trip to visit my parents this weekend...just the girls and myself...as my dearest hubby has oh.so.many little projects to keep him busy at home...projects much more easily accomplished with an empty house. :) we will miss him...but we will surely be in good hands...

...and tonight instead of blogging i will be enjoying a date night with that dearest hubby...did you hear my sigh of contentment?! yes, it will be nice. :)

...and so friends...i promise, promise, promise i will get back to updating my little blog just as soon as i return...
