Hi everyone! It’s me, writing from the point of insanity that is my life at the current moment![]()
This past weekend we celebrated little man’s 2nd birthday (8/15) and had a party for BOTH darlings on sunday (8/16). K.’s bday is the 29th, so one party it is. It was HOT out and we ended up indoors a lot, but what a time! Thanks to all of my AWESOME family who were able to come and enjoy the fun. K & E are so blessed to have you all.
Kindergarten starts in Sept and I am a nervous wreck over that. Please, KG, be kind to my shy little piece of work because she is really fun, but has a super sensitive heart. On the flipside, 6.5 hours of WORK TIME, STRAIGHT is sounding pretty luscious at this point (on the days my DH is off duty, anyway). I suppose every mom goes through this anxiousness… her preschool teacher is a local LEDGEND so entrusting her to someone new is really, really challenging.
I’ve got the elmers glue and the crayons (I know, it said 16 count but the 24 count were priced at 30 cents compared to 1.50 for the 16 count. They can remove the other 8 if they want, I’m not paying more for less!) and the other stuff. Now I just need to get into a school routine again with both kids. Eek!
If anyone has any school advice or comments on it, please share. I know I’m not the only anxious mom who stops by the blog. I’d really appreciate it!
A few more sneak peeks of Senior A. and little neighbor A. – just gorgeous, agreed?!


I purchased (in conjuction with another awesome photog) some new templates today and HOLY ROCK AWESOME, youre going to love them. Along with the buy 1 get 1 half off sale on the books this summer, I believe something fun should be done to celebrate these new layouts for the books and 3×3 accordion wallet books! Awesome storyboard temps too – cannot wait to share! So much to update on, so little time. But all the new goodies are coming in just in time for awesome holiday gifts… yippie!
ALSO – in honor of Alexa, Christi, and all of the countless others who are suffering, have suffered, or will suffer from childhood cancer, I will be donating $5 of every order to the Brown Family’s fund for Childhood Cancer Charities. You need not contribute more, it’s simply coming out of proceedes. You will receive a gold ribbon to commemorate that SEPTEMBER is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in your box with your order. Dear Alexa’s family is graciously splitting the raised funds amongst a few groups who directly benefit the research and support/care of the kids and their families. Alexa is now pain free and flying, but her momentum carries on through those of us who push it!
Anyway, I’m slammed. Back to work.
How about this humidity? ACK!
