“it will hurt them”
We had to rush Taryn to the ER this morning on a moment’s notice. She got ahold of some of the gel pesticide that Terminex put onto the inside of our cabinets. Our kitchen is childproofed, but Jason was standing at the counter putting dishes away and one of the drawers was open. Taryn put her hand up on the side of the drawer, grabbed a small amount of the gel and put it in her mouth. We were both right there, and immediately tried to get it out of her mouth, but it was too late, she had already swallowed it. She’s our child who chews on everything and any little thing she finds goes straight into her mouth. […]

the story behind ty
I don’t post very much about what is going on with him. I’m not really sure why I don’t, its not that I don’t want to share, I am just not sure what to say, because it really requires me to put it all out there to really understand what is going on with him….. He’s had a rough time, the last year especially, this kid has been through a lot in his 9 short years. My first husband, Ty’s biological father, left us when Ty was still a baby. His life spun out of control after he left us, so Ty didn’t see him much. For a long time, it was just the two of us, me and Ty, […]
the wonder it brings
Look what I found, a little hidden treasure on my CF card. I snapped a few of Taryn blowing bubbles with my mom the other day after the baby bed mini shoot I posted below. But then I didn’t go back to them because I got busy with client proofing. I love the look of wonder on her face. Her world is huge, wonderful and fascinating, yet still so small in many ways. I love that about her. I love seeing something new in her eyes, the joy and wonder it brings. This is just so her right now, about 10 times a day she runs into her room and hollers “bu-bl bu-bl” and points to them up on the […]
nie nie baby….shhhhhhh
Taryn woke up WIRED yesterday, I don’t have any idea what caused it, but she was ON allllll day long, full force. She had me cracking up most of the day, I was either laughing or trying to keep up with her LOL. I decided that if little miss personality was going to be in full force, I should capture it, so I dug out one of Taryn’s pillow case dresses to do a mini shoot. I wanted to try and catch her playing with her new baby doll bed. She loves it and keeps telling us to “ssssshhhhhhh” every time she puts her baby in the cradle. I had to convert everything to black and white because she still […]
the tail end of a nightmare
IT’S HERE!!! I’m so excited I can’t hold it in. Our disbursement for the remainder of our grant funds from our mortgage company! After 18 months of misery, stress and about every other emotion Katrina caused us, today brings relief!! She took so much away from us, the worst part is that she stole those precious, peaceful days that happen in the beginning when you have a newborn and we can’t get that back. So much of our attention, for a long time was focused on the after effects and surviving, instead of just being happy within our family. And poor Ty, he is still really struggling, I don’t post about it much, because I just don’t know what to […]
