Photo Friday x 2

I missed last week due to an acute case of Mommy brain. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. So you'll be getting 2 pictures tonight to make up for it. But before I show off my fabulous photography (haha! right), I have a thought that I need to get out of my head. 

I feel like I can no longer hold an adult conversation. Most of my conversations are held with an 18 month old, they typically contain words with less than 2 syllables, I often refer to myself in the 3rd person, and the response I get may or may not contain an actual word. Now that Charlie is off from work, I find that I have a hard time finding things to say to him. I also have a difficult time talking to my friends or family without using 'uh', 'um', or talking in circles. As much as I absolutely adore my son and am grateful for all of the time I get to spend with him, I long for adult conversation and contact. Because, quite frankly, I'm out of practice. 

Okay, enough of that. Onto the pictures.

Calvin's first baseball game (2012)

2 words I hear multiple times per day, every. single. day. are "bah bahp!" (baseball) and "juice?". So here you have it. Calvin with his precious juice and a bucket hat, and Calvin in his Daddy's lap at his first baseball game. <3

Foto Friday

Typically, in the grand world of the Internet, you're supposed to post your old pictures on Thursday. They call it "Throwback Thursday". They're so clever because those two words begin with the same 2 letters.  So today is [throwback] Foto Friday. See? I can be clever, too! 


Squishy face!

 Here is one of my very favorite pictures. This was taken a year ago, give or take a few days. When I'd help him make this face it had us all giggling. And nearly a year later, squishing his little face like this still sends both he and I into a ball of laughs. Life is too short to go a day without laughter.

Anne Wheaton was right...

Yes. Wil Wheaton's wife was totally right. Cleaning out the silverware drawer by taking everything out and washing it is for suckers. Just use the hose attachment on your vacuum. It will change your life.

This message brought to you by a sudden urge to clean ALL THE THINGS.
