A whole bunch of Nothing

Hello world...it feels like it has been awhile since my last blog..
Let's see, not a whole lot going on that you would be interested in...
Maybe a quick recap of the week?
I had varicose vein surgery on Monday...it went well but my leg now looks like a wild animal got a hold of it.
YUCK.
I liked it better when it was all neatly bandaged up and I couldn't see it.
Childbirth-it's the gift that keeps on giving.

Hollis had her Kindergarten program at school yesterday.
Collins had been screaming all morning and I showed up with no time to spare and a camera in one hand, a video camera in the other , a bum leg and a grumpy baby on my hip.
What a sight!
It's no wonder I never seem to get good pictures at these programs.

I looked and felt really frazzled!! But I was there! These pictures are proof,right?

Poor Hollis.
She is so tall that they just stick her in the back so the shorter kids can be seen too.
I remember being always stuck in the back  row for programs too.
Sure makes it hard for a Mama to get good pictures!

This weekend is a big weekend for these Hoosiers-The Indy 500.
Although we are not a huge fan of the race, we are huge fans of the activities that it brings...lots of cookouts and outdoor activities and time spent with good friends.
The city is just vibrating with excitement this weekend of the year-
I think it might be one of my favorite weekends of the summer

This is kind of random but it makes me smile.
We have a little nest of baby robins living in a bush beside our garage...

So sweet.And cute and ugly all at the same time.

Their Mama loves them so.

She lets me know it anytime I get two feet from the nest.

Can you believe I have kept this a secret from a very curious 6 year old for 3 weeks?

Me either.

Don't worry Mama bird.

Your secret is safe with me.

And a picture of my baby bird.
She loves to pull the cord on my camera while I attempt to take her picture now.
That makes for some interesting/bad  pictures.
She was up before sunrise this morning!
My coffee machine is set for a 5:45 am brew. Maybe I need to move it up an hour.
Carpe Diam, right?
