This was actually my photo for Monday, but I forgot to upload it. So here it is a few days late. I was trying to get a photo of the new paint color and the art back on the wall.

because I forgot to upload it a few days ago, my posts on my blog are slightly misnumbered. geez...how on earth did I keep track with my 365, when I already lost count 15 days in on this 31 day challenge?

Post-derby practice snack. This is probably my favorite flavor...for now.

One of our neighbor's gave us a stack of Angelina Ballerina dvd's that were her granddaughters. They don't watch them anymore, but Kenzie really enjoys watching it.

Trying to get these two to pose together can be a real challenge sometimes.

Green socks

Today I skated in the Forest Park St. Patrick's Day Parade with 46 other women from Derby Lite. It was tons of fun. I brought the girls and pushed them in the stroller. Next time, I won't bring the kids....I think I might have more fun to be able to participate more in the pacelines. Kenzie seemed to have fun, and when we were in the car she told me she had fun at the "roller derby parade". Tonight, we went to see the Windy City Rollers, so it was a derby filled day. I wanted to make sure we were there so we could see the flash mob that was going to happen at half-time. I could have participated if I wanted to, but I didn't really want to dance in front of everyone at the UIC Pavilion. It looked fun though and maybe I'll do it if they do it again.

"And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Na na na, na na, na na na na"

- the beatles, hey jude -

"tonight they've got a show
and there's a couple of seats left there in the back row
there is something there that you should see
there is a place for you and me"

"Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better"

- the beatles, hey jude -

I know the photo has nothing to do with the lyric, but this was the photo I took for today. I was working on a clothing pattern.

The lyrics, however, are for my new nephew. My youngest brother and his wife welcomed their first baby, Jude Everett. He was born this evening, and I'm looking forward to meeting him this week.

"When I was young
I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
Now I've grown up
I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of?"

Wind and rain
Inky blue that goes on and on
In the day"

Just doing a little 31 day photo challenge. I don't want to commit to a 365, but I do miss having a reason to take photos every day. Or at least attempting to take better or more interesting photos.

Kenzie looked cute laying on the rug in Aubrey's room, and, surprisingly was smiling for the camera.
