Meet Jane, Josie, and I-forgot-her-name West. They are taking care of the farm animals at our house now, after being rescued from the toy bin at the Bargain Box yesterday.

I also bought this little beauty. I'd link it but Anthropologie doesn't appear to sell it online. And I bought the last bottle at my store, so don't go looking for it here. I am now a walking temptation... People go running for vanilla cupcakes when I come near, and they don't even know why. Mmmmmm I'm a giant cupcake...

These two are a sample of the retail therapy that took place yesterday. We are STILL waiting to hear our future decided and it's taking its toll. I'm trying to be patient, to know that everything is going to work out, but I must say this application process has been very humbling for me. I cannot imagine why Ben doesn't have 15 acceptances right now! I'd let him in because he is totally amazing! Anyway, perhaps you've been wondering what's going on with this process and that is it. Nothing.

And just because these two insisted on a photo in their jammies this morning:

grrr... patience is not a virtue i possess. glad to know that we both resort to retail therapy for things like "waiting."

and now i want to smell a vanilla cupcake.

waiting is the worst. smelling edible is the best (or is it?). that bottle is so pretty i could kiss it.

Your house is too perfect! Sorry you are having to wait so long. I wouldn't be able to take it. Hang in there. It will be for a great reason!

Sorry :( Hope you hear soon, so not fun

Caity said...

That is frustrating. I'm sorry.

Emma and Tanner are enjoying feeding your fish right now.

If it is any consolation, we are all dying to hear the answer :)

I know that Heavenly Father has something up His sleeve for your little family. That is one thing I have learned in my life. It may not always be what you want or when you want it, but it will always be exactly what you need. Have faith and keep shopping. Ooh. I should embroider that on a pillow. :)

...And I agree with everyone else. Your house, your perfume, and those darling boys look like perfection!
