Thanks to everyone who has come to visit my little old blog – I love all the comments!  Keep em coming! Today we had a hard time deciding what to do.  We found a great little hole in the wall diner with decor straight out of the 70’s.  Complete with gold sunburst clocks and brown tile floors.  But the food was awesome, we’re going back for breakfast again tomorrow.  My handsome hubby… Here is Taryn diving into the tour guide book trying to decide what to do for the day.  It started storming during breakfast so we decided to put off the plantation and beach until tomorrow in hopes for better weather.  Instead we decided to go downtown to the […]

(((sorry I’m late posting – the internet was down at our hotel))) Today was so much better.  Jason had to work today but the kids and I slept in and then had breakfast down at the hotel restaurant.  Not exactly a kid friendly place, but we did pretty good, Taryn didn’t scream through the meal thankfully.  I must say though that she did clean the buffet out of strawberries.  And every time one happened to hit the floor, our waiter was right there to pick it up 😉 I decided to put the cameras away this morning.  I put them both in the safe and then took the kids swimming.  I needed some space from being so upset that my […]

Today was not a good day.  I woke up after Jason left for work and realized he forgot to leave me the stroller that was in the back of the rental car.  This meant I would have to literally chase Taryn all day long or carry her.  Anyone with a 2 year old knows this isn’t fun.  So I called the Aquarium and as luck would have it, they had strollers there I could use, I would just have to manage both kids and our stuff down to the dock and pier, on the water taxi and then through town to the Aquarium.  Not fun with a toddler who loves to pull away and run off, near water no less, […]

We got up at 4 am….man is that early.  Flying with 2 kids is a J.O.B. Two flights, waaaaay too much stuff.  Taryn fussed the entire first flight but did good on the second one.  I thought she might get scared during take off and landing but she did great.  She even let out a few "wwweeeeeeeeeeee" sounds 😉 Ty did good, he always does, that kid loves to travel.  I’ve never seen anyone who loves to stay in a hotel as much as Ty does.  He just gets giddy. Sunrise at the airport in NOLA My biggest irrational fear is bridges.  Don’t like em.  Never will.  I distracted myself by taking pictures of it – it’s huge and we […]

We’ve been busy today packing and getting ready for vacation.  A week in South Carolina, I can’t wait! (And if anyone creepy is reading this blog – just know that we have 1) a housesitter  2) a big dog and 3) a great security system.  Just sayin). I kept trying to pack her suitcase but packing with a 2 year old isn’t easy.  "No No Mommy, I do it."  So….this is what you get when a 2 year old packs…the necessities (barney, diapers and her teddy)…she tried her hardest to get that darned shopping cart in there, but it just wouldn’t fit.  LOL!  I’m not sure how she’s going to survive without her shopping cart for 7 whole days?? Taryn […]

Thought I’d log on today and share some of the everyday things that make me happy. Love Love Love Taryn’s new Mary Jane Rain Boots from Uncommon Goods.  They are a little big but she loves stomping around in them already! Another of my new favorite things, my pretty stiped laptop case. Finally found the PERFECT shirt for the hubster.  hehehe We’re gonna get Ty, and we’re gonna get him good.  Just waiting for the right moment.  The bog monster is coming soon. Bwahahahaha. I’ve gotten a few emails and comments asking whether or not I use actions on my photos.  Yes and no.  Well, sometimes.  =)  It just depends on the photo really.  I like to proof each image […]
