{pretty, happy, funny, real}

Capturing the context of contentment in everyday life....

{pretty}


Katie is teething again, and she feels better when she's being cuddled by us.


{happy}


Almost two weeks ago I made two cuttings from our basil plant in the garden.  Now that it's cooling off around here, the basil plant looks like it's about to die.  Bryan and I have been enjoying the fresh homegrown basil so much that we thought we should try growing a couple of new plants from cuttings.  I really doubted that this would work, despite what we read on the internet [I'm such a doubter!].  I was very happy when Bryan pointed out to me yesterday that both cuttings had some nice looking roots.  Can you see them?  I'm going to make a few more cuttings today since my mom wants to give growing basil inside a try, too.

{funny}


We've all had quite a few laughs about this plate Bryan was sent earlier this week.


Look at that look Katie shot me when I was trying to get a picture of her just chilling out on the couch with Bryan.  I guess I was disturbing her while she watched the soccer game.


{real}


Somebody is into just about EVERYTHING these days!


Who, me?


Yes, Kitty Katkins.  You're lightning fast and driving me crazy with all of your antics.  Daddy will be adding Katie proof latches to the kitchen cabinets soon.  And the computer?  I'm going to take the mouse and keyboard and put them where you can't reach.  If you don't like it you can just stick both arms behind your head and scream like a wookie.  It's ok.  I don't follow the "Let the wookie win" line of thought with wookies too small to rip my arms off.
