Playing Catch Up

I did not mean to be away from the blog world for 5 days.  That is a bit unlike me.  But we have been SO busy...so here is a bullet update:

~We have had gorgeous weather here so I am taking a lot of flower photos. Here are two that I took this week for my 365 project....

~ Kate and I have been going to the park a lot with friends....

~ A nutritionist has put Harry on a newer (and even more strict) diet so I have been shopping for specialty foods, ordering protein powders and supplements on-line and cooking a lot.  He is FAR below the lowest acceptable weight on the growth charts so I need make him a lot of high calorie healthy fat and healthy protein snacks and smoothies.  It has become a part time job.  But we are seeing some really positive results.  There is a whole lot more to this that I will post another time because it could be helpful to more people.

~Y'all are going to laugh at me..... but I discovered C*STCO!  I know it has been around for ages but I had never been there until last week and I LOVE it!  It is my new favorite store.  They have organic meats and produce, gluten free food, Lily Pulitzer and La Coste.  What more could a girl want?!  My everyday summer outfit is J Cr*w bermuda shorts and a La Coste polo so I was thrilled to see them there (in my size no less) for a fraction of what I usually pay.  I have been there twice in the last week.  Love it!

~ Little League has taken over my life.  Our Little League organization is one of the largest in the US.  It is incredible.  But the commitment is huge too.  Harry is loving it but we are at practice or games 3 or 4 nights a week.  It is only until the end of April but I cannot overstate how much time it consumes.  Every single parent must have a "volunteer position" and there is a carnival, auction fundraiser event, opening ceremonies, closing ceremonies etc.... I guess what I am trying to say is my blog time has been seriously eaten into by baseball...bear with me.

~My sweet Will is giving Kate art lessons and turns out that she is a natural...

Will had Kate draw a self  portrait and she drew the one below!!  I did not beleive that she drew it so he had her do it again in front of me.  She draws better at 2 and 1/2 than I do at 35;) LOL--I am not very good at math either;)

~I have become seriously addicted to photography.  The bug bit me a few years ago but I see the world through a lens now and I need help.  I think about everything in terms of photography. I dream of new lenses and software.  It is bad.  Help!

~Kate's pneumonia is better and Harry's toe is too. Thank you for all the well wishes. Hope y'all are doing well. I will catch up with your blogs as soon as things slow down a bit.
