Things I want to do in the next month:
- Continue searching for the letters to spell out Abra Cadabra in Creed's room. I only need to find one more A and an R. I know that I could order them online, but I sort of love the thrill of the hunt that collecting something brings. Do you collect anything? Do you feel that way?
- Write bunches of Thank you notes to all of our wonderful friends for all of the great things they did for us after Ollie's arrival
- Throw a birthday party for Creed
- Survive Larry going to a conference in Georgia for several days
- Design Ollie's birth announcements
- Track down and sample the Chow Truck (Haute Asian Cuisine on the go in a cart that moves around the city? I HAVE to try that!)
- Attend the Holi festival in two weeks (I'm not sure that we can work out babysitting though so we'll see about this one)
- Start taking Ollie's monthly photos
- Visit Wheeler Farm to see if new baby animals have started arriving
- Hold a Moonlight-flashlight Easter egg hunt for grown-ups
- Try the Sesame Chicken Salad Wrap at Les Madeleines
- Hit up a couple of letterboxes around the city when we need an adventure on a sunny day.
- Make some Easter Egg cozies when I get the crafting urge.
- Make good use of my new waffle iron for Belgian cookies.
- Grow some Wheatgrass (not to juice, we're not THAT healthy around here, just to decorate, although I have no idea where to find the seeds to get started. Whole Foods?)
- Visit the new Penguin exhibit at our local aquarium after it opens in two weeks (because you know how Creed adores penguins)
- Take some new photobooth pictures. It's been way too long since our last photobooth session and I've been saving up my single dollar bills, but I'm not sure if this one will happen because both of the booths we used near us have been removed! We'll just have to try to go when we're visiting family in Provo.
- Sign Creed up for swim lessons
- Try some new, easy dinner recipes. I am a horrible cook. Do you have any favorite recipes that you'd like to share because I don't think my family can continue to live on pancakes and frozen pizza?
Do you think that I can do it all? I'm not sure, but I'm going to try. I wrote this list yesterday and I can already cross a few things off. I'll keep you posted
