kill me now

Those were Ryan's exact words when I told him that T had picked up his copy of Blender magazine and was running around the house, joyfully pointing at the picture on the cover and shouting "Daddy!!"
Yes, that is Jack Black.
She even gave it a few smooches :)
Ryan said he will be taking the jogging stroller out & hitting the weights as soon as he gets home.

Rockin'

This girl seriously loves Mastodon. I mean seriously.
If she hears them, she immediately stops what she is doing and rocks out.
The song "Colony of Birchmen" is her absolute fave.

I attempted to catch her on video, of course as soon as the camera comes out she tones it down. It figures.
Usually it involves way more headbanging, butt-shakin' & singing.

Oooh, she will be jealous that Mommy & Daddy get to see them live in August at the Mayhem Festival.

The Ergo

I finally purchased this
because lately, my days are spent like this

Phew! Now I can attempt to get things done around here!

Happy 4th O'July!

I usually have to work on the 4th but not this year!!
I was desperate to find a parade near us (how come no one has parades anymore!?) but had no such luck. We decided to hit one of my old neighborhoods (Junior High & High School) for their parade and met up with G'ma & G'pa.
It was really long and we didn't make it to the end but Tiny loved it and was exhausted by the time we left.

famine

I know I am late posting about this but I really haven't been able to put my emotions into words. It is absolutely heartbreaking what is happening in Ethiopia. As a mother, I cannot fathom having to helplessly watch my child starve to death.

This shouldn't be happening.

Please also check out this family's blog-they have a great way to help.

The Taste

Really, we must have been absolutely out of our minds to go but we had a fantastic time (minus the last 2 hours!)
