Oh this makes me laugh.  This shot was totally unprompted, I just happened to have my camera in hand when I rounded the corner and found her like this.  Homegirl has been getting up at the crack of dawn, sneaking across the house and swiping my iphone off my nightstand.  She then proceeds to hide in her closet with the door closed and play games on it.  How do we know this you ask?  Jase woke me up the other morning stating he couldn’t find Taryn anywhere.  We knew she was in the house because the alarm was on.  Once found, she looked annoyed we’d interrupted her.  Whatev.  Soooo, now she’s […]

you think you’ll never forget….

But you do.  I was just cleaning out a box in our closet because we are having our bedroom painted in two weeks and it’s going to take us that long to clean it out and get it ready.  At the very bottom of the box was a paper, neatly folded.  I almost cried when I opened it up.  I had forgotten all about this….all about the time my first baby lost his first tooth….and it was quite a story.  How could I forget?!  Oh how I wish I had blogged back then.  I could revisit those moments any time I want, the ones I never thought I’d forget, but have.  Ty lost his first tooth and it came out […]

1.  I tried hard to pretend today that we weren’t preparing for surgery for our baby on the second Easter in a row.  It got to me, no matter how much I tried not to let it.  Having children with health problems is hard.  And those problems don’t go away on holidays.  Teagan’s surgery this week will be one year to the day of his surgery last year.

2.  We did manage to do a few fun things with the kids, we died eggs, did an egg hunt in the front yard and we made our annual bunny cake…..I used to make this with my mom when I was a little girl…..

This morning, as I was dozing in and out, trying to convince myself to put at least one foot out of the bed, Jason was up with the kids cooking breakfast.  As I dozed out again I felt a little tap on my forehead, just between my eyes.  And before I even opened them, I thought it would be Taryn standing there, because that is her old trick.  But it was Teagan.  I opened them, smiled in surprise that it was him, and groggily closed them again.  He said “Momma, Momma, I ready”.  “You’re ready bud?”, I asked, assuming he meant ready to play, ready to start his day, ready to go.  But my little man said “Ready to ‘nuggle….” […]

these are for my mom.  who *almost* never complains about never getting photos of the kids anymore.  or that I rarely even send the ones I do take.  or that she’s still waiting on me to proof all the photos from our trip to her house *last* summer.  or that all the walls in her big, new house at the beach are blank and awaiting to be a life in motion gallery, just like her old house was.  or that she was supposed to see the kids over spring break, but I took on too much work to be able to go.  she certainly has more patience with me than I would if I were her.  I know that she […]
