Grace in Small Things, August 31, 2011

1. I ordered this sweater (above) before I was pregnant, and for some reason it's been sitting in its box (very unlike me). I opened it yesterday, and realized it's going to be the perfect maternity sweater. Yay!

2. Plain yogurt and rasberries and granola homemade by my mom for breakfast.

3. There are big, lush clusters of hot-pink roses in my rose garden right now, and the way the sun tinged the edges of them early this morning when I let the dogs out into the yard was absolutely divine.

4. My IVF nurse says my lab numbers look "perfect," and is weaning me further off my medications. I'm getting weaned off way faster than last time...not sure if that's because of the twins, or because last time things weren't going as smoothly. Either way, I'm happy.

5. We have a cricket in our house. He's in our kitchen and he chirps, so loud, at night. If we find him we'll put him outside, but I kind of like him in here with us. I keep thinking: lucky cricket, lucky cricket, lucky cricket.

Hope everyone has a lovely day!

XOXO
