I swiped this off my facebook feed:
Ty: “Mom, If they sold ‘patience to deal with taryn’ in a bottle, I’d use my entire allowance and stock up on it.”
Sigh…..me too Ty, me too.
I swiped this off my husbands facebook feed:
Playing Wii with Taryn. She is in the lead so there is a crown on her head.
Me: Oh look, it’s princess Taryn.
Taryn: With a sheepish grin and a nod – “they call me queen”
Love her!
Speaking of our girl, “funny football fan fisheye Taryn” always makes me laugh….
Being 5 is awesome. It’s learning to tie your shoes and loving riding your bike. It is hopscotch and partially painted finger nails. The best part of your day is holding hands with your best friend at school and telling secrets and giggling. It is about growing our your hair and clothing battles with your mom. It is about swearing you’re going to marry your little brother when you grow up. It is about freckles and knobby knees and dancing silly. I love who she is.
in my book of taryn’s funny sleep. i swear some day i’m going to print a book of these. i just need to wait until she stops giving me usable material. like here, here, here and here. and now here:
found her like this after Ty’s football game tonight. she finished eating, grabbed her jammies and put them in the bathroom, curled up and she was out. too tired to continue with our normal evening rituals. duder wasn’t actually asleep, just snuggling his blankie. as usual.
These two are something else. Partners in crime. Duder was not in the mood for photos and spent most of our time yelling “no!” The only smiles and moderate cooperation were thanks to Taryn hiding behind me and popping up to surprise him. I love my sassy Jesse and my grouchy little Woody.
But thankfully, even after a really rough night for Teagan last night, he had a much better day and we all had a blast today. A few things I always want to […]
I took these the week before Taryn started school. I’m so, so glad that I did. I was “this” close to putting them on the back burner but now I’m so happy we did this. My girl had a really rough start to school and kindergarten, we totally didn’t even see it coming, it hit us like a brick wall. She is now thriving and doing very well. We couldn’t be more proud of her, all that she has learned, all that she has overcome in just a few short months. It has been quite the adjustment but with the help of a good friend, we can now stop to look at the kid she was before, and the […]
1. My sweet husband turns 33 today. Happy Birthday Jase!
2. He got P90X for his birthday and I have a feeling we’re about to get our butts kicked. Ty, Jason and I have all lost weight with all the changes at our house (me 29 lbs, Jase 25ish and Ty 30ish) and we want to run with it.
3. The little kids are actually gaining weight. I swear I did a happy dance right there in our pediatricians office. Duder is still in the same clothes he was in last fall and has been between 26 and 28 lbs for well over a year. We are thankful he didn’t loose much while being sick but for he and Taryn to actually […]
