10 for tuesday

Been a looooooong time since I did one of these- let’s see if I can make it to 10!

1. A few weeks ago, John & I went to Timmy’s school for visitors day. The program was adorable- loved the singing and the whole weather theme. Was so pleasantly surprised that Timmy sang and smiled the whole time! (he’s not much for singing in public).

2. We made sure that we got a shot of John & Tommy stuffed into the little first grade desks. Denice and I used to talk about this when the big kids were babies- so funny cause our kids have been together in classes all these years and I think this is the second or third shot of Tommy & John in the little desks…

3. Read a new book recently- Heaven is Here by Stephanie Nielsen. Totally different than my ‘normal’ reads, but it was great and very inspiring. Which I think was the point. I read Stephanie’s blog all the time so I was looking forward to reading her book about her recovery and life. Definitely recommend it!

4. The boys, John and the Healy men went to opening day for the Mets at Citi Field a little while back. They are all SO happy that baseball is back. I, on the other hand….

5. If we normally run into eachother in real life, I apologize in advance for the next few weeks. My spring allergies are in full swing and the only thing that works is benadryl. So I’m b*tchy and on about a 5 second delay all day. A lovely combination.

6. The boys are really enjoying their iphones and Timmy loves his Kindle Fire. Their favorite games right now are Stack the Countries and Stack the States. I love them too, and there are a ton of countries out there that I really know nothing about. Like Pakiscandinavia.

7. The weather here has been so nice, we hit the beach for a little bit the other day. Cannot wait until that’s EVERY day!! I finally finished cleaning out the garage from the giant purge of the winter and donated the rest of the items to the St. Mary’s Outreach Center down in Long Beach. They were so nice and very appreciative, and it was a good thing for the boys to see. Since we were just down the block from the beach, it was definitely time for a visit.

8. Saw this cool wedding seating chart a while back in Garden City and snapped an iphone picture. I wish I had something like this at my wedding- so pretty!

9. In a giant bubble war with my dad. He always beats me. I think his high score is 19,500+. So frustrating!!

10. Lots more Organic Bloom frames, window frames and a few families coming up on the blog soon. (ok this last one is kinda cheating but I’m all out of ideas). Shooting a newborn today- a big, chunky one who weighed in at 9lbs, 4oz at birth. And waiting on a birth session (I hope!) any day now…
