The past few days MI has been in a summer “polar vortex”. Obviously, it wasn’t as cold the one in the winter, but it was still unseasonable cold (like in the 50s and 60s). The weather reminded me of fall, which in turn reminded me of crock pot meals, stews and football!
Here is a yummy beef stew I made last year.

I have decided to make Annabelle a “quiet book”… you know with all the spare time I have. 😉 I have gotten a few pages somewhat done, and am planning on doing a complete blog post of what I did when I am finished. Here’s a teaser for you though.
This page is going to be a color match. The flowers will be a in a pot, and there will be matching flowers to Velcro on them.
Here is a page where she will be able to Velcro her name in the correct order. I know that she won’t get it now, but hopefully in the future she will enjoy it.
This page is a number matching. I will be making lady bugs with dots on them. The point of the page is to match the right dots with the right number. Once again, I know she won’t get it now, but by the time I actually finish the book she probably will.

Yesterday I went out with a bunch of moms from the moms club I am a part of to celebrate a birthday. I stayed out until 12:30am. That was way past my bedtime, and made me realize that probably wasn’t the best idea in the world. It made me think of this someecard (even though about half of the moms there were 30 or older):

Annabelle loves books (which I think is great)! I love when she gets out books and looks like she is reading them. It just makes my day!

I am so glad that Annabelle is rocking her patch ok. I was totally worried that she was going to be pulling it off all. the. time., but to my surprise she only tries to take it off when she is really tired, or when it starts to lose its’ stickiness. Here’s to hoping the rest of the patch experience won’t be too bad, and that it will fix her lazy eye.
