for today...

as seen on Ali and Cathy's blogs (original idea from The Simple Woman's Day Book)...

Outside my window... i see the street slowly waking up...

I am thinking... how strange it is that i feel better having slept for only 3 hours...

I am thankful for... my kids, my husband, my life... but mostly the silence that still fills my house this early in the morning...

From the kitchen... i foresee hot oatmeal with lots of brown sugar in my future...

I am wearing... pjs and a pair of old slippers...

I am creating... Thank You cards for the gifts kid 2 received...

I am going... tile shopping today... i am insanely in love with a high gloss, apple green wall tile at the moment...

I am reading... "Breaking the Good Mom Myth" by Alyson Schafer...

I am hoping... the weather is nicer today than the forecast is predicting...

I am hearing... the cats bat at the basement door, meowing for their morning breakfast...

Around the house... i see baskets of laundry to be folded...

One of my favorite things... is cuddling my newborn baby as he breastfeeds...

A few plans for the rest of the week... my Mum coming to visit, a few playdates, hanging out on Friday with my husband and kids...

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
