I know, I know. It's unfair of me to do this to everyone, but really. I must baby-horse-picture spam. And after a teaser like this:
how could you NOT look at the rest
slightly off focus (dang!) but cuuuute nonetheless!

he discovered the bucket of water, and it was adorable.
Life has been flying by. I'm more and more amazed that people seem to get everything off of their to-do lists. Mine keep growing and growing and growing! I managed to shop for and send out a package this week for my adopt-a-soldier thing -- it was pricey, but I've been bad about tithing, so I figure it balances out. Kent and I found a cute little house to rent -- we're singing the lease on Wednesday. It's going to be a tighter squeeze than we wanted financially, but hopefully we'll make it work. Cheap meals ahoy! I'll share as I discover good cheap healthy recipes =) Things I haven't done this week? Yoga. Which I *NEED* to be doing. Badly. My riding is suffering, and my hips are really bothering me at work. Stupid tailbone/lower back injuries from when I was young.
I've been slowly making my way through 'The Eight' by Katherine Neville. Enjoying it. Not going anywhere fast in it. Only been reading a few pages before bed every night. (read: before I fall asleep reading and have to wake myself up to turn off light)
Haven't had a chance to edit novel. Feel bad about it. Still on marathon to-do list. Have been riding as much as I can with the eight million things I feel like I have going on. It's going well. Mac is improving this week after a week off due to weather.
Wedding things are marching along. Still have tons to do, tons to pay for, and our first month's rent is due in August. It's....going to be interesting. Need to balance my checkbook. I'm just so wiped out by the time I clean stalls, go to work, run errands over lunch, ride after work, and come home and eat that there doesn't seem to be much time in the day. I know, I'm preaching to the choir. But we've talked in counseling about how I may need to scale back when Kent and I are first married until I feel like I can balance my marriage, keeping up a house, and my hobbies. I think it's a fair assessment. At least until being married feels a little more normal. Everyone comes up against this, and I need to remind myself that getting married isn't just moving in together, it's building up a relationship that is more important than my hobbies, or my work, or my to do list. At least I can say my life is NEVER EVER boring. It's an adventure, and I'm kinda just hanging on for the ride right now!
Enough from me today. I have things to do! Sorry I've not been around much. Hope everyone is enjoying the 'baby' pictures! Love!
