Just One Word

Growing. If I used just one word to describe my life right now, it would be “growing”.

Have you ever looked back at times in your life and thought: “That was my awkward stage,” or “Oh, I remember-that was the Summer we drank iced tea and sat out on the porch for hours doing nothing.” Yeah I know, who has time for that these days, right? But it sure does sound nice anyway. Well, I’m currently in a growing, growing, growing stage. Allow me to provide some pictorial examples if you will. (Been thinking of doing a scrapbook album based upon this. What do you think?)

Growing Belly. (i.e. Growing appetite, i.e. “Feed me Seymour!”) Growing Baby. Growing Family.

16 weeks, 4 days and counting!

Growing grocery bill.

Eek! Someone please tell me how to make this one stop!

Growing list of projects to do before said baby arrives.

Is it actually possible to get all this done before the baby arrives? I'm starting to wonder...

Growing seedlings.

Who'd have thought empty toilet paper rolls could come in so handy?

Second year to attempt herbs. This is a leftover organic apple container. Which I found quite ironic-organic apples in a plastic container. At least it was labeled a 1 for recycling, right?

And next weekend we’ll be adding growing baby chicks to the list. They are finally going to get here! (All 15! DH  is very ambitious these days!)

Can't wait to see how our own dogs react to the new chicks! Monitored closely, of course.

I really could continue….growing love for the weather (sunny and warm!), growing appetite for all things fresh and homegrown, growing gray hair (gotta love 30!)…just growing, growing, growing….

What about you? Got a word that just fits your life right now?
