Today...

a boring post! Not much happening in my little life today. Here's a silly picture just for fun. My friend Pam gave this to me on my last day of work before my maternity leave. I keep it in Owen's room on his vanity/dresser. It makes me smile. The other day I took it outside to what used to be my garden to practice the macro function on my camera. I just thought the pink and green were a nice contrast as well as the nature and not nature of my subject.

It seems that fall is here. Within the last week it seems that the trees are changing and the leaves are falling. The temperature has certainly dropped. Last night Morgan had to turn down the thermostat because he was too hot. It was all of 66˚ in the house! I had to turn it up today because Owen and I were having to huddle together to stay warm!
Tomorrow I am doing the Walk for Hope with my mom and sis, sponsored by the Alexandra House. It is an organization whose purpose is to end domestic violence for women, children, and families. Sunday my friend Harriet is Running the Twin Cities Marathon. Each year she raises money for Autism and runs the race. So if you are watching the marathon don't forget to watch for Harriet! One of my coworkers is also running the marathon again. So cheer for Don too! Perhaps next year I will run the 1/2 marathon. I guess I need to run more than one day a week though. Ugh!
Not much else happening in our little house. I'm working on an adoption announcement for my boss. She adopted her second daughter from China in May.

Scrapladyb @ 2P's posted this Challenge for today:

You are at the magazine stand, what three magazines are you going to purchase?
Hmm... that's tough. I can see myself standing at the magazine stand at B & N and it is huge. It would of course be in the craft/hobby section! Probaby one on digital photography or Photoshop or MAC World, one on scrapbooking. Perhaps Scrapbooks Etc. and one on sewing. I also like Real Simple lately. The ads in there are inspiring. What magazines would you pick??

Now it has come to that time of day which all SAHM's enjoy. Naptime! And I need one!
