Babyfest is over!

Shraddha loved Gymboree and I was happy to steal some time away to play with her. Usually Daddy gets to take the kids to all the fun entertainment but this weekend he was in Indiana doing a seminar. Shraddha got to be in the Sling Fashion show but wasn't about to wave b/c she didn't want to drop her water!

WHEW! This year I was much more involved and somehow involved in many more projects! But it was a success! It was nice that we could reschedule the fest to this past warm sunny weekend. The weather had it in for us last weekend. We not only got rained out... we were full on WASHED OUT! We retained almost 70% of our vendors for the "re-do" and even had new ones sign up at the last minute! We even had our highest attendance ever with 1000 people.


Now I get to catch up with my house and my family. Roger says I was kidnapped by Babyfest!

Shraddha wasn't exactly selling T-shirts but she was wearing one! It was so warm she was sucking down Evian like crazy! She was even sweet enough to make sure I had some water too. "Mama wawa, Baby wawa"

catching up and Shraddha Says

I have tons of pics to post and tons to say but I am still catching up with my Fresno Babyfest job and the house. Last week I was very busy with work and this week I am really behind.

But I will take a micro moment here to talk about some funny things Shraddha says before I forget.

Yesterday someone said, "Hi cutie" to her and she looked up at the woman and said, "Hi pretty!"

She also calls things that she wants "shrieky". And at times refers to herself as "Shraddhie"

She also asks for Daddy and Bubba in the afternoon. And she looks at me to wait for an answer. Then is sooooo sad when I tell her that Bubba is with his other mommy.

Good news is that I have been able to leave Shraddha with Beckie now 2 or 3 times without all the crying and screaming for Mamma and Dadda!

Back to Babyfesting and Homekeeping.

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result."

ahhhh silence

Sleep deprived and oh so tired but not as tortured as Tina is now or Tyren for that matter (poor baby). Way too tired to sleep. Just awake enough to jot some incoherent thoughts down until my mind catches up with the rest of my body and goes to sleep.

But who could sleep when Halloween and autumn (my favorite time of the year) are so near? There is so much to do.

Shraddha and Madhava both slept for 4 hrs today... the exact same 4 hrs! Is this the Twilight Zone? No no no... this must be a dream LOL!

I have so much to post but not tonight. Just a bunch of complete nothingness. I seem to all of a sudden become enormously busy. Scouts, Communication Seminar, Halloween Party, and I am sure there is something Babyfest that I could/should be working on. Oh I forgot that I was gonna drop the should's. Usborne is also on the list. Nothing immediate happening with that but it continues to take up RAM in my brain.

My house is demonstrating the state of my mind at the moment. Of course it doesn't help that Shraddha prefers to throw all the clean laundry out of the basket (folded or not) onto the floor. What is it with the books? Leave all of her 40 books on the floor and there they stay where she left them..... for days even. But if I dare to put them neatly back in the bookcase.... they only stay there for mere moments.

Ok all systems seem to be equalizing now.... off to bed.




Before you speak, THINK
Is it necessary?
Is it true?
Is it kind?
Will it hurt anyone?
Will it improve on the silence?

I have to laugh because I am sure glad this post wasn't taking up precious silence.

I did however very much enjoy all the great laughs at the communication class. Thanks Beckie you crack me up!
