Falling back in love…

February 19, 2013

We’ve had a love-hate relationship. We fight all the time and the moment I think everything is working out perfectly, I look back and see nothing but a mess. I’m often embarrassed and constantly stress out when we are in public situations that require complete harmony. But I’m trying to learn how to fall back [...]

So… Halloween was over a week ago.

November 8, 2012

Can I apologize for not posting any pictures of B from Halloween? I’m fixing this right now. We went trick-or-treating in two different states this year — and neither one of them we LIVE in. The first one was on our vacation in Arkansas! Bluebelle is doing the Mickey Mouse “hot dog” dance! After we [...]

Vacation Photobomb!

October 31, 2012

The first year we took B on vacation with us, I took roughly 500 pictures. Last year, about the same. (I was trying to get family photos.) This year? 200. I know. I’m slacking. It was because of a few reasons: One, I accidentally deleted about 80+ photos of our vacation. I am still completely [...]

Fall festivities: ETBU homecoming and Pumpkin Patch

October 30, 2012

I’M BAAAAACK!!!!! Pause here with me while I take a deep breath. Woosah. I’m actually not officially back to normal yet, although few people would qualify me as normal anyway! I still have to head out of town for several days to help family and do a few things. I love having the flexibility to [...]

The Little Gym – Costume Party!

October 15, 2012

Saturday night, Bluebelle went to her first costume party! It gave us a trial run on the costume and an excuse for me to take pictures. My dear friends Nichole and Brittney were in visiting that day and they were lifesavers. There’s no way I could have taken pictures and kept tabs on B at the [...]

Favorite Photo of Summer

September 29, 2012

I thought I’d link up with the Paper Mama to do her Photo Challenge this week. I thought it would be the easiest: Favorite Photo of Summer. It’s actually really hard, because I can’t decide on a favorite! I couldn’t decide if I wanted my favorite moment or the photo with the prettiest lighting. I [...]

Playing outside

September 27, 2012

Sometimes I am stunned that so much time has passed since I had her. She looks like a little adult to me sometimes, but sometimes she still looks like my baby. Today, I took my camera with me while we went for our morning explore. I’m trying to work on my photography skills, but I’m [...]

State Fair 2012!

September 26, 2012

This past weekend we went to Oklahoma so my brother and Todd could go to the Blue Man Group concert on Saturday. Sunday was our annual trip to the state fair! Now, while we live in Texas now, and Texas’ state fair is amazing, I tend to prefer the Oklahoma state fair with a child. [...]

WW: The Little Gym

September 5, 2012

Yesterday we took B to the local Little Gym to see if she would like it. Um… duh. She loved it. We all loved it. We are going to check out a class for slightly older kids, but I think we are going to become Little Gym regulars! It’s an hour each week for us [...]

Wordless{ish} Wednesday: Aunt Jean-Jean

August 29, 2012

Do you ever take a ton of pictures to realize later that you’re not quite pleased with the end result? You’re about to see some. Even though they weren’t the best quality, the memories behind the photos were much better than the photos themselves and they tell the story I wanted to tell. Sometimes that’s [...]
