Have you ever be aware of something, without truly having a complete understanding of it? I am aware of the fact that I don’t like having my picture taken. I know this, it’s not a surprise to me. Yet this week, I wanted to find a few family photographs to add to a project I’m working on. I had hundreds of client images saved to a folder, just for this project, that part was easy. But I spent over 3 hours digging through personal images. I dug and dug, I have only a handful of photographs of jason with the kids, and less than 3 of me. This makes me so sad, here I take all these photographs of clients, […]

Be honest. What do you think? It’s spring and I was ready for a change. I loved my old banner because it had both kids on it. It’s been soooooooo hard for me to integrate two children with a huge age gap into a banner. But the old one was kind of dark, and I need a change, a happy, lighter change. Of course there is the mommy guilt that the new one only includes Taryn and not Ty. But you know what? It’s too hard to keep both of them up there all the time, so I’m just going to swap them out at whim. Ty will be featured on the next banner 🙂 Not that he wants to […]

Buying pretty party dresses even if you don’t have a party to go to! And to think she helped me clean house in this dress! I managed to catch these in all of about 5 minutes before she started telling me no and jutting out that bottom lip. Little stinker. I’m learning to be quick at least! Now if I could just pry the tea set that has been in our family for years out of my mom’s hands, then poor little miss Taryn would have a party to go to! (Hint Hint Gee-Gee)!! Playing peek-a-boo with the kitty… And my favorite….I love the way she giggles!! She was laughing at our cat who was doing nothing more than walking […]

I don’t know about you guys, but after 2 days of downer blog posts, I need a little pick me up. This totally cheers me up….capturing drool from the lip progressing right on down to the floor – lol! Dad’s expressions totally crack me up!!! He looks so proud in #4 but the last one is by far my favorite!!

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. […]
