the whole southern smocked thing isn’t really my style for my little guy (no offense to those who love it!)….but this was just way too cute to pass up. you don’t see it nearly as much in south texas as you do south louisiana though. my mom bought this for teagan (thanks mom!!) and we literally had to stuff him in it before he outgrew it….another 5 minutes or another meal….and we might have been too late LOL! and we had to do it when my cute husband wasn’t around to avoid the inevitable scoffing shaking of the head….doesn’t matter, Teagan is workin’ it….don’t you think?

shoes on the other foot now chic

oh the irony is just too much. the “looooook at me!” and the exasperated “sit stiiiiiiilllllllll“…..right back atcha kid!

being the good example (and adult) that I am, I look everywhere but at her and wiggle like I’ve got ants in my pants. it’s kind of fun to dish it out for once, I must admit.

it does however totally melt my heart that when she opened it up she said “look, I’m like mommy!!” with a great big smile 😀

We’ve come a long way baby

Tonight, we’ll lay low. We usually do. But it’s got a place close to my heart, the reason we lay low. Jase and I met in June of 2001. After 6 months of being neighbors and friends, New Year’s Eve was a turning point for us. We were invited to a party with some friends, but at the last moment, Jase started feeling sick, and since Ty was already at my mom’s house for the night, he told me to go on to the party without him. We weren’t dating or anything, so I went on without him. As I left, I instantly felt his disappointment.

I drove to the party, make a quick appearance and left. I headed to the […]

life has been chaotic.

while we had a wonderful christmas with the kids, it’s been a rough few weeks, everyone has been sick. well, everyone except for ty, who is freaksishly healthy. taryn brought something nasty home from her trip to louisiana and passed it all around. on christmas eve, our pediatrician called with teagan’s blood wor results from all his brick dust / yellowing of the skin incidents and thankfully, everything came back normal. we still don’t know what is causing it, but his urine tests and blood work looks good. i was glad they called because he was on day 3 of running a fever and we thought they were closed for the holiday. they had us bring him […]

Merry Christmas!

1. Yesterday was a wonderful day for me personally and professionally. Hearing so many comments, getting wonderful emails, but most of all, reading Michele’s wonderful words that brought me to tears. Very cool. Can I just tell y’all one more time how very much I love what I do?

2. We’re a bunch of sickies. Everyone but Ty. Well, and Taryn is at about 80%….just in time for both Jase and I to be sick and Teagan to be teething and sick. Sigh. I will be honest though. I prayed and prayed and prayed my husband wouldn’t get sick. I begged God that if someone had to get sick, please, please, please let it be me and not him. Yeah, […]
