currently...

i am thinking... how excited i am for summer. chasing brody around the park while he tries to eat the grass and chase the ducks. soaking up the lovely warm sun. getting slurpees and taking trips to the zoo.

i am wearing... jeans and my oregon sweatshirt (shocker, huh?)

i am creating... well, i am always creating in my mind, but executing is my problem. i am trying to decide on a "theme" for brody's birthday party. and i want to go buy some fun fabric to make some pillows. i'm trying to be a lot more domestic this year. p.s. i might need a sewing lesson.

i am reading... an article in runners world magazine about a guy who got in a car accident a few years ago, he was hit by a dump truck and it crushed his pelvis, ribs and clavicle and his heart and lungs got pushed to right side of his body, he lost 60% of his blood, he endured 14 surgeries and 36 blood transfusions and spent two months in a coma. but he came out of his coma and he pushed through every challenge and now he runs marathons and runs in Iron Man competitions. it's amazing and inspiring.

i am hoping... we know what we are doing for the summer in the next few weeks. we do know that we are not moving to Pennsylvania now, and I am very happy about that. if you are like what? PA? you never told me that...yaddi-ya...well, tyson interviewed for a summer statistics internship for a pharmaceutical company, but we heard back from them and they told him "nope". which is totally okay with us. it will be nice not to have to pack, find a place to live, move for 3 months etc etc etc. so it's all good. now we are waiting to hear back from a few other places he applied for internships to here in Columbus, or see if he has a teaching position with the school for the summer. so when i find out....you'll find out.

i am hearing... brody's beautiful piano lullaby music.

around the house... i spy toys, books and stuff animals and an empty laundry basket that needs to be put in the basement.

one of my favorite things... brody's amazing laugh when i tickle him. my ears have never been so happy. i could do it all day long, but i try and give him a few breaks throughout the day until i wind up again.

my upcoming plans... doing a few projects around the house, hopefully a photo shoot and get some cute pics of the little bear, hanging out with some friends, running running running, going out to dinner, enjoying the spring weather and having some fun with the fam.

what are you doing currently?
