Simple, Easy Days
Tuesday, December 01, 2009 Edit This 2 Comments »
Cold ham leftovers for lunch, peaceful, instrumental Christmas music in the background.
Sun streaming in the windows.
Tiny babies sleeping in soft cozy blankets.
Between chopping wood, Jeff is building shelves to take care of our closet situation.
The situation is this: We have one closet, and it is the only storage space in the house.
Luckily we have very little stuff, but we do have two seasons of clothing, coats, boots and snow suits for a family of five. We also have blankets, towels, sewing supplies and stacks of cloth diapers. All for one closet, which also houses our dryer. :-p Heh. It's a mess.
Quinn is sewing a teddy bear that he is making of my fabric scraps for Nichola.
Nichola is making trouble, mostly ;-P but occasionally stops to make messes too!
I am sewing Christmas presents, sipping fennel seed tea to help with Simone's gassy belly, and hoping to do more sewing once the kids get to sleep tonight.
Sweet, simple days...

Hello Cage Free Family -
My husband and I have also been on a journey of discovery this year...a road trip across the North America in which we've met amazing people, seen the beauty of the world we live in and re-discovered our priorities along the way. And we've been following your journey via your blog along the way. It's been an encouragement and blessing to see your parallel path. We are about to leave California and head to the East coast and it seems as though your new home may be along the way. We would love to stop and see you, cook you some dinner, help build some shelves and talk a bit. I'm sure you're reveling in the comfortable bubble of your newly expanded family, so feel free to say no, but if you would like to get in contact with us, you can do so via our blog (lastgreatroadtrip.net).
peace to you all,
Erica and Sean
love the family pic and how comfy your kids look!
love you
B
