I have decided to join Studio Friday. I think it is a neat concept. Every Friday there is a new topic meant to represent you at work in your studio. This week's topic is: my working hands. My hands have been working overtime lately, but in my studio (my corner is more appropriate), there is where they can relax working on what is good for me: holding my kids and playing with my creativity. I still can't fit in my rings (trying hard to shed that pregnancy weight), so my hands feel a little naked to me, but soon enough!!!
I hope I can do this every Friday although it may end up being late in the day because I am at work all day, but I will try to stick with it. 
Look at me, I am in the walker!
Lucas doesn't like the bouncy chair or the swing for periods longer that 5 minutes, so we are trying everything we own to keep him busy for longer periods. In the last few days we have been trying the walker. It is not a great success, but right now we can count on 10-25 minutes of peace when he is in there. In that time we can start dinner, or get one of the other boys out of the shower. I know it doesn;t seem much, but if you have had an infant in the house you know you will take anything!
..to shine! It is April and it is still raining! I don't know how much more I can take. One of the reasons I live in California is supposed to be the weather, but this winter (and spring now!!), it has been horrible. I feel I am in Seattle and my mood is starting to be seriously affected by the vaste amount of water coming down from the gray (really gray) sky. I am in stand-by mode everyday. Get up, look out of the window, more gray, so.....stand-by.
It is supposed to rain at least until the end of this week, do I need to say more?
You are almost 4 months old! And although I am so happy and excited to see who you are becoming, I am afraid I am going to forget these moments, and all your silly faces, the funny noises you make, the color of your eyes before they turn to their final color. So here I am taking pictures, trying to capture all the things I am afraid to forget. Your eyes are still blue and just today at day care I was told that you look like me and most of all that your eyes are like mines! That made my day!With 3 boys I thought I was not going to have any luck, that non of my kids was going to look like me, but maybe I was wrong, maybe there is some hope after all to see a little more of me in one of you. For now I am capturing your eyes the way they are today.
I still have around 20 pounds of baby weight to lose and I am really committed, that is why I try to go to the gym 3 times/week and I am eating really well these days. Today was one of the gym days, and everything hurts!! Psychologically I feel great after I go as if I am really doing everything I can do, but my poor old body seems to think differently. Still I am not giving up, hopefully by the summer I am close to my target and I will feel myself again. I know I can do it!!!
