Bedtime stories





I was reading a post on Emily Smith's blog about a story from when she used to teach in the hood in Chicago and it made me really think about how lucky I am that my kids have a dad, that I don't have to struggle as much as a single mom does (it's still a struggle most days with two of us) and I wanted to give a shout out to my wonderful husband who is THE BEST BEDTIME STORY READER EVER!!! Seriously the kids are so upset on nights when daddy isn't home to read to them. so thanks Jamie, you're the bomb diggity (just haven't said bomb diggity in a while and felt like it was a good time!)

If you haven't seen me lately...

For all of you who haven't seen me lately...
SURPRISE I'm a brunette now!


The most common remark has been "your eyes look sooo green!"


They've been green my whole life, I guess the brown hair makes them more noticable.


The most common question has been "what does Jamie think?"


well he's the one who wanted me to go dark. He's been buggin me to do it for weeks!


So there it is.

(sorry mom, I know you love my blonde hair)

Who do my kids look like?

A lot of people ask me who I think my kids look like... me or Jamie. Well... I always say both. I see things in them that remind me of different characteristics both Jamie and I had as little kids. What do YOU think?


Zac looking kinda like me






and I had the same hairdo as Landon





Zac always makes crazy faces which reminded me of Jamie



And Jamie had those fat cheeks like both my boys




Landon really looks like Jamie's baby pics to me sometimes








Zac so proud in what he's wearing just like Jamie was
