Lil'Bug is watching Tarzan and imitating Tarzan imitating the jungle animal calls. She's also leaping off the couches and rolling around trying to get the moves right.
:) Oh, for more rainy days like this one!

Right Now
Mother, wife, sister, friend. This is our second year on the farm, a dream we've had since we were first married. We unschool, AP parent, and grow our own food (or try to).

Photo Challenge 10- Self
I'm sorry I missed last week for the photo challenge. Oops. Totally fried and flu sick last weekend.
This week I have been challenged to take a decent belly photo. I had to learn how to use the timer on the camera, but I'm still working on it.
This doesn't have to be a self portrait though, just how do you view yourself? Through what? How? Where?
(Also, my brain is fried. Any suggestions for themes are welcomed!)

Yeah, What She Said
"Lil'Bug, why do you take so long to eat your food?" (She doesn't start eating until everyone else is finished and ready to clear the table......)
"Well, actually, my teeth are little. Your teeth are big," she looks at us like we should know this, being her parents and all.
********
This morning she went to the moon. And back. And then to the moon one more time. There are monsters there and she would be lonely if we didn't come too, so she shared her helmet (a Mr. Potato head container).
********
"Honey cookies" do not have any honey in them. They are classic peanut butter cookies. She helped make them last night and discovered the ingredients.....She doesn't care. "I will still call them honey cookies, mama." Yup. Fine.
********
Last night the baby kicked her while she was cuddling me. So she sang her lullaby to my belly. It was so sweet.
********
In the morning I heard a funny little voice saying, "Mama, mama, mama," not in distress but singing......while Lil'Bug is supposed to be sleeping......so I peeked in her room:
"Well, actually, I was peeping like a baby bird. Listen. The baby birds outside are upset because daddy went to work and they miss him and their mommy is getting breakfast ready. They are lonely. Mama, were you getting me breakfast?"

Cool Music
I was at a friends house last month and she had the neatest music mix playing. I asked her about it and she shrugged and said it's just the Internet. I pressed on, what station? I-tunes?
Nope. Pandora. The music genome project. You type in an artist you like and through a complex equation based on sound, genre, etc they match up other artists and songs that are similar and Poof! a radio stream that plays only music that you like! I have found so many new artists that I want to order BUT I also now have a nice background music for my day.
I have 5 different stations going right now for my varied tastes.
Oh, and it is FREE! You have to register after a trial period, but it is still free. My techie Dearest Husband approved the registration as not being a security harm. :)
So, I had to share this with you all. (Especially Heather K. who is looking for music to play in labor.)
