Baby Love

Well I have had two beautiful days of baby love. You just can't beat those mushy kisses on their plump cheeks and oh those little laughs. Now that is living.
Isn't he the cutest thing? He is Collin, my Grand nephew. Actually, I don't know if we would be Great instead of Grand, I just like the feeling I get when I say he is my Grand nephew! (He is the son of my niece, Megan.)
Decorating Tip: Spend some time with a happy baby. It is sure to make you happy,too.

Looking at the photo do you think I have been some place wonderful like the beautiful beaches of the Caribbean? You know a place where the water is clear and blue and the beaches are filled with white foam from the waves coming in and out?
Well yea. But not today.
So this morning I was cleaning house and doing the laundry. (This is the two steps forward part.) There was a crash from the laundry room. Upon inspection I found my 2.34 GALLON container of laundry detergent had wiggled itself off of the dryer and was currently dispensing blue detergent all over the floor. As the blue goo was oozing its way to go under both the dryer and the extra refrigerator I grabbed the closest thing there was---towels. So I begin sopping up the mess with the towels. Thank goodness I had the presence of mind to not toss the towels in the washer, thus preventing an I Love Lucy disaster on top of the mess I already had. But now what do I do with the towels full of detergent? (This is the 14 step BACK.)
And I was just trying to clean my house and do a little laundry.

Well here I am, my first day on the blog.  You just don't know how long it has taken me to just get this far!

So for my first entry, I will just let this be a celebration of one small step........a photo.

Photo taken today, January 24, 2008 with my little buddy, Brockett.  Brockett is a LOM (little old man, but I guess that is really a LOD as in  little old dog.)

Decorating tip:

Celebrate accomplishments, even little ones.
