Random Friday: it's been a week.

• That shirt speaks the truth.
• My mom is here! She's doing my laundry, cleaning my house and watching my kids. I don't know about her vacation, but mine is GREAT! You'd think this would mean I'd have oodles of time to blog.
• I haven't run again since I posted about it. First we were out of town and then it rained. And rained. And rained. Then I've been busy.
• I've been sewing so many things lately. A ton of baby stuff. This banner for the Etsy shop.  This one was a custom request, but I think I'm going to add them as a standard item. it was so cool. For comparison sake, the one that says "Noah" is my standard sized banner.
  
  
• The Princess stands up now. All the time. She'll stand from sitting in the middle of the room with nothing to pull up or balance on. It's crazy. Good thing she can stand, as she hates grass.
  
  
• Has anyone else's Google Reader stopped showing the older items? The already read ones? Have I changed a setting?
• I tried to take a picture of them on Father's Day. This is the best one.
  

What I've Been Reading:

• Life's Too Short to Fold Fitted Sheets by Lisa Quinn. This is a super fast read.  Lots of great housekeeping and entertaining shortcuts. Don't buy it though, maybe flip through it at your library.
• Free-Range Kids, How to Raise Safe, Self-Reliant Children (Without Going Nuts with Worry) by Lenore Skenazy. Very entertaining and written with a great sense of humor. So far it's all about why we're so scared to let our kids out of our sight. Stranger Danger!!! I'm waiting for her to explain how to protect other people from the kids before I can let the Bug loose though.
• Twinkie, Deconstructed: My Journey to Discover How the Ingredients Found in Processed Foods Are Grown, Mined (Yes, Mined), and Manipulated into What America Eats by Steve Ettlinger. Still very science-y. If the entire book continues as the first 60 pages I might not finish. It's interesting enough, but before the book even closes I've lost whatever I read. Chapter after chapter on the science of food. Eh.

So what's new with you? What are you reading? What fun thing are you doing this weekend?
