Clean Window

Today I'm enjoying a beautifully clean bay window that my mother-in-law so nicely cleaned for us. She saw a job that needed doing and she did it :) Thanks Terry! How come I didn't notice it had gotten so bad? I sure noticed a difference when it was clean though...and I'm still noticing it actually, each time I sit down by it or walk in front of it I see the trees clearer and the sun brighter and the leaves more golden. I could draw so many parallels to my life here. I won't, but I could, and this sentiment is definitely stirring around inside of me these days.

Jack and Terry did so much work on our house--mostly the bathrooms, but I mean we have an entirely new, updated 1/2 bath!! There is still work to be done, we of course we are being lazy and putting off now, but it is getting closer and closer to the finished product. We'll get pictures up as soon as we're done. Hopefully we'll make some major headway this weekend.

Charlotte is standing and pulling up these days...it's like I'm watching her go from being a baby to being a toddler already! We are enjoying playdates with our friends and the opportunity to watch some of our friend's kids. She's doing great with solid food and figured out how to wave. Waving is like the first real, visible, interactive connection we are seeing her make and it's so fun! We were Charlotte's Web characters for Halloween. Here are some pictures and a video from the last few weeks...
