Newsflash

Severl people emailed and commented asking where she got that adorable dress from one of my recent posts. Her fabulous Mom volunteered the info- it's a Trish Scully Child dress and a Lilly Pulitzer sweater.  Heaven forbid when I have girls of my own to dress.  I will go broke.

Here he is

Mr. Fatty pants.  Well, I guess you guys can be the judge of the "fat" or "fluffy"  contest.  Voting is now open in the comments box.   I swear I will not hold it against you so don't be afraid to be honest.   If he is voted "fat" I guess I will have to start measuring out his food every day.  =)

This is something I find rather hilarious- he's been sleeping in my top paper tray since we brought him home as a kitten in May.  He's slowly outgrown it and now he's like this big huge boy and he still insists on trying to fit into the paper tray.  He is spilling out on all sides but still attempts to  sleep in there while I'm working.  It's so funny watching him reposition himself a hundred times trying to find a way to make it work! 

Fat or Fluffy?

During the really, really busy months I find that I am so goal-oriented and working so hard that it doesn't always allow a lot of reflection time about life in general.  Christmas is great because it really causes you to think about how blessed you are.  Isn't it strange how sometimes daily routine can become so go-go-go that you forget to just stop and enjoy the fact that you are CURRENTLY living your life?  Each morning I wake up and thank God for all the blessings He's given to me.  It's not that everything is perfect, or that nothing ever goes wrong for me, it's just that I KNOW that through it all that God is good and I don't know what I would do if He wasn't my best friend.  So that is something that has been on my mind this Christmas season.  I've also been thinking about the fact that my mom came to visit me at the new house and she called Pegasus fat and I don't know if I can forgive her for that.  Okay, maybe his belly is a little large and in charge, but don't we all need a little extra warmth around the middle??   I'll have to post a recent photo of him and you can all take a vote.

It must be true

They say that if you dream at night that you are pregnant then it means that someone you know is pregnant. And if you dream that someone you know is pregnant it means that YOU are pregnant.  Well, my dreams must be right on then because every other night I have all different kinds of crazy dreams that I am having a baby, and in actuality just about everyone I know is having babies.  Can you please all stop having babies so that I can return to my regularly scheduled programming?  Seriously!  I'm so sick of the pregnancy dreams already.  =) 

I pity the fool

That phrase just pops into my head sometimes.  Its a great way to start any sentence because it sounds intimidating but doesn't actually mean anything.   Was anyone else terrified of Mr. T  when they were little?  I seriously thought Hulk Hogan's main goal in life was to seek me out and kill me.   

Why am I writing about Mr T and Hulk Hogan you might ask?  Because I have nothing positive to say right now and I don't want to complain at you.  It's one of those days.

However, look at these marvelous children.  I promise that they are as sweet as they are cute.  They are probably the most laid back kids I have ever worked with. 

The Eagle has Landed.

I am sore in places I did not know I had places.   Moving is ALOT of work, but I am so glad we did it.  The new house is so beautiful and spacious.  I could cry for joy.   We don't have the internet hooked up yet, so that makes me feel a little helpless.  You know that feeling when you leave the house and realize you forgot your cell phone and you feel completely naked?  I always wonder how they did it in the 80's when no one had cell phones and you had to use a pay phone if you needed to call for directions.   Anyways, that naked feeling is what its like without the internet.   We also don't have enough furniture to fill the place, but that will all come in time I guess. We ordered some stuff from Room and Board, but I never realized how long it takes for furniture to come in!  I guess all good things in life are always worth the wait. 

I actually have alot of work to show you guys even though things are slowing down with the Holiday break I'll be taking in December.   Here is a session from a few weeks ago-  it was a little bit cold on this day but we managed to have some fun walking around downtown before we were all ready to come inside!   I always enjoy shooting sisters because it reminds me of the bond I had with my sisters when we were little.
