no pictures, just words (okay maybe one picture)

I wish I had my camera around for days like today. Although, it would have been difficult to record some of the things that I want to remember with photos, so I figure that doing it with words will be the next best thing (camera isn't lost, just far away at the moment). Things that I want to remember from today...

Porter running around the house yelling, "Wowwowwow" over and over again. Every once in a while he'll let out a single "wow", but normally that doesn't quite cover the excitement.

He also started folding his arms today when you ask him to, he's such a cute boy.

The rain, hail and beautiful gray skies. I love rainy days (when I don't have to drive in them).

Rented "Get Smart", and plan on watching it later tonight with my honey.

I purchased a(nother) tub of cookies and cream ice-cream. The Smith's Premium Select brand is fabulous. They practically have whole Oreos left in the ice-cream.

(does that even work; a(nother)?? I think so... I'm leaving it)

I held my head in shame for not registering to vote. I completely forgot that I had to register in this district. I remembered on Oct. 23... 2 days too late.

I held my head high, remembering that even if I had been able to vote that I wouldn't have been able to decide who to vote for. It possibly would have ended with me putting in a write-in vote for Kyle or maybe Charlie Brown...at this point I think either would be a better choice than what is available.

I fawned over the fun and adorable fabric that will become our little newbie's quilt. I just have to pick the pattern...and cut the fabric...and sew it...and get it quilted...and bind it... so it's practically done.

I played and played with Porter, soaking up every last bit of my last day off. I love spending time with this kid. He's just too freaking cute.

Oh, and I suppose I have some pictures that I probably haven't ever posted...since I know that there are Gramma's out there who look here daily for a photo.

This is a family shot when we were in Moab a few weeks ago (thanks Ellen).

Enjoy.
