1. It’s not Tuesday, but I’m happy to be blogging. I’m working a ton of hours right now, busy season is in full force!! I’m trying so hard this year to blog all my wonderful clients. Last year a bunch never got blogged. I’m trying to do better this year 🙂

2. Taryn went back to school for the first time since August on Monday. She did amazingly well, we are so proud of her. Their class Halloween party was held yesterday. There are 13 kids in her class and only 4 girls including her. The costume party produced 3 princesses and one buzz lightyear in the girl corner. She makes me smile and I love that she is who she […]

2. my husband has started a blog. ’tis true. i’m calling him out because the secret is that this isn’t the first time. but it didn’t stick. i’ve encouraged him so many times to blog. so i’m calling him out this time so it’s all public and out there in hopes he’ll keep at it. i think he’s got a lot of valuable things to say. if he posts more than a few times i’ll come back and share the link…..no […]

crack up

We do little interviews every so often with Taryn asking her questions about her name, her favorite color, her best friend, etc. I’m not even sure what to say to this little gem. Except of course that she is a total crack up.

kung poo in action

I realize I should not be encouraging this, but I had to capture it. This is what we live with, all day, everyday. Kung Poo Panda as she calls it. She’s got moooooves. It’s pretty funny when I instigate it and I’m ready for it, but when I’m minding my own business and get sneak attacked from behind 862 times a day, not so funny.

Not long after this video, Teagan karate chopped her in the eye and gave her a shiner. I think we’ve got to put a stop to the Kung Poo. Or at least try. She ratted herself out […]

I’m pretty sure Teagan reads my blog….

After a long morning, it was (((finally))) naptime. After quite a bit of encouraging I shuffled Taryn in to her room to lay down….

Taryn: Mom, you NEED to read me a book.

Mom: Taryn, it’s not nice to tell mommy what to do. You should ask nicely.

Taryn: But you NEED to read me a book RIGHT NOW.

Mom: Taryn, I’m not going to read you a book unless you can ask politely. It makes mommy sad when you talk to me that way.

Taryn: OH! Well then I will give you a hug.

((((Insert big, squeezin’ filled with love hug here))))

Taryn: Oh mommy, I will help you feel better….((((she rubs my cheek and smiles up at me with her big blue eyes))))….are you happy […]
