I finally got this done.  I created this in photoshop, easy peasy.  We ordered a mounted 15×30 that will go in our foyer and I cannot wait to get it in from the lab.  There will be major UPS stalking going on this week.  I just love how the kids names line up and how it says “today tomorrow always” because the inside of Jason’s wedding ring has this inscription.  Words rock.

Dear Taryn,

You are not a dog.  No amount of barking, wagging your tail or licking will make you a dog.  While I normally embrace your imagination and pretend play, I have officially reached my wits end.  I am a germ-o-phobe and having a daughter who licks everything is driving me insane.  Stop it.  It is gross.  There is no amount of sanitizer than will make it better.  If the swine flu continues to spread through Texas, you will find your little barking, tail wagging, licking everything in sight, self quarantined to your dog house.

Love,

…finished up a week of doing at least one nice, extra, little thing for my husband each day.

…found myself wandering around the house saying “where is Teagan??” way to many times.  That kid is everywhere.

…am thankful Teagan’s follow up appointment for his surgery went so well.  In fact, it couldn’t have gone any better.

…am working on Mother’s Day gifts.

…have thought about picking up my camera to capture little moments during our day, but haven’t done it yet.

…can’t get the scorpion that was in.my.house yesterday out of my mind.  […]

1.  I’m reading this book right now and oh my, so much info, so many ways I’d like to change things, tweek things, organize things.  I’ll admit I’m only half way through the book after starting it two weeks ago, but hey, I’m busy and it really is about taking baby steps, 5 minutes here, 10 minutes there, each minute makes a difference.  I’ve had tons of “ah ha” moments of duh, that is soooo smart!!

2.  I love this site.

3.  A few weeks ago we had some friends over and Taryn fell and hurt her bottom.  She came running, crying, to tell me what happened.  I threw out a “oh honey I’m sorry, come see me” and a […]
