Lost in a Book

What a glorious Sunday it has been. I've been lost in a book all day "Lovely Bones" and now I have to go take a shower to go to my parents house as a belated birthday dinner for my sister.

I haven't really done anything today... just read and washed a load of clothes. I love having a dryer!!!

Oh and I gave Jadie a bath with tear free baby wash. She smells just like my cabbage patch dolls did that I had when I was little. The babies were always scented with baby powder when you smelled their bald little heads. I used to collect them. I would get a new one every year in October when we went to Helen, GA. In a nearby town (Cleveland, GA I think) is this place called "Baby Land General" It is a sort of cabbage patch museum set up like a baby hospital where they stage deliveries of cabbage patch kids out of the cabbage (serious this is a real place) and you can name them and they are one of a kind all cloth and can be adopted and taken home. I always got the ones that came in the cardboard and plastic boxes and were made of plastic, they were cheaper. Jadie smells like that.

While I was reading she was curled up in the crook of my arm and I could smell her sweet little head and wondered if my baby boy would smell that sweet. The wallpaper in his room is completely dry now (I will update the picture soon) and I can't keep from imagining tucking him into bed there, rocking him to sleep, and measuring his growth on the door frame with a pencil. (Like my sister and I did growing up against her door frame.)

My Mood : flirty
Now Playing : "I'm a wild one" playing in some old movie Curt is watching on AMC
