random, boring story
Sep. 19th, 2007 08:52 pmEvelyn is asleep in Farmor's lap. She got that way by being walked in a bouncy fashion while Farmor sang to her. My mom called me and E decided to throw a fit, so G (my mother-in-law) came and got her, which was nice. I'm glad that she gets the napping baby experience. That's the best time to hold her. :) So sweet and snuggly!
I had no idea what to cook for dinner tonight, and flipped through my recipe book to find something that I had all the ingredients for. I settled on a vodka cream pasta. Later, I started thinking that it would be nice to make a pasta salad for M and his parents to eat for lunch tomorrow while at Natural Bridge, and when talking to M on the phone, I asked him to stop at the store on his way home to get the ingredients I needed for the salad--list forthcoming. I headed to the kitchen and threw together the pasta salad, discovering (to my great surprise) that I actually had everything I needed. (pasta salad: rotini plus whatever you have in the kitchen.. onions, peppers, shredded cheese, pepperoni, cubed ham, olives, capers, etc, all covered with Italian dressing. Fancy!) Since Evelyn was playing nicely in the bassinet she's way too big for, I assembled the ingredients for dinner and realized that this story is really boring. I mean. I realized that I actually did not have enough cream, and so he had to stop for ingredients for the dinner I was only fixing because I had everything we needed. Oob! You know what, this all sounded better in my head before I started writing it. Please ignore.
I finished a new diaper today that I am really pleased with. I need to take pictures of it but I can't do it right now. It's (almost) entirely my own design, although inspired by a few others. I hope it fits her. It's a fitted diaper with no sewn-in soaker, but a trifolded soaker sewn in at the back, so that the bottom part will flap open in the wash. Hopefully, it will dry relatively quickly. Most of my diapers are pockets, and you stuff an insert into them after each wash. It doesn't really take that long.. maybe fifteen minutes every other day... but it's still not huge amounts of fun so I'd like to have a larger supply of fitteds. I do kind of enjoy the diaper laundry, actually.
Eh, baby is awake so I may need to go feed her. She was reaching for me across the room earlier today. How many ponies does one little girl need, anyway?!
