My poor education.

Happy Girl brought home her final set of spelling words for the second grade. Check it out:


faraway
stoop
hollows
prow
bristling
wharves
lupine
jasmine
kangaroo
tropical
cockatoo
figurehead
coconut
aisle
conservatory
climate
beautiful
souvenir

Prow? Wharves?? Lupine??? I don't even know those words, much less how to define them! It's a sad day when as a mom your are looking to the dictionary to learn the words your 8 year old has been assigned to learn.


In other news, Happy Boy just completed his first season of soccer. Good times!

Ouch.

You know how they say if you exercise regularly you should change up your routine every so often? Well, I changed up my routine this week. I didn't realize I was overdoing it with my lunges...because really - I'm a whimp and I hate pain and if I think I'm pushing myself so much that it-will-cause-extreme-pain-in-the-following-day-while-my-muscles-repair... I don't push. But, apparently I don't know how to set my limits because ya'll I'm in pain. I'm gasping in pain whenever I have to take a stair up or down. I really believe that if I threw myself headfirst and tumbled down the stairs it would be less painful.

How cute is this???

I've been on an apron kick lately, don't know why. I haven't bought any but I've been looking around the net and have found such cute sassy aprons!

Check these out:

I think the Nora Fleming is awesome - you can accessorize your mood with various sashes: Genius!!!
