Here you go Mom.  She always calls me when things quiet down and reminds me to post something.
She was mad because I wouldn't give her the lens I just took off the camera.
I know the snot is totally gross but this is a typical Beau shot here and one I've been trying to capture forever.  Thank you colds and open mouth breathing!
Here's Bradie in a silk slip she unearthed from my drawers.  Her latest thing is to wear my stuff. In my t-shirts she looks like a Hogwarts reject.

With a tape (yes, I still live in 1990) in VCR for LOST, I am off to Narnia and then to bed.  I just finished The Magician's Nephew and will begin The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe tonight! LOVE IT!

post brought to you by Super Why :)

Hey there self: the last uploaded photo will show up first, remember that next time!  Anyway here is a keepin it real shot to begin with.  Beau's expression slays me!


Happy 10th month little man!  Beau is finally realizing how fun it is to walk around with his hands held.  He gets this determined little grin that melts my heart, probably more so if all the blood wasn't rushing to my head as I walk stooping over.  Beau has also had YoBaby yogurt for the past three days and appears to be fine- for those who don't know Bradie has some sort of issue with dairy and we're obviously hoping Beau won't have it as well- so far so good!  

Lots of other little potpurri:  thanks to my wonderful inlaws I am the proud owner of a sewing machine! I bought my first pattern and fabric and whatnot and will attempt a first project very soon.  I am planning to build a dress for Bradie.  Then I will make something for me!

I am anxiously awaiting some new workout DVD's to appear in the mail to begin to tackle the four pounds put on by those darn holiday treats!  I will be submitting myself to Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred and some Rael Pilates, so woohoo!  Oprah and her "wagon" couldn't have come at a better time ;)  Although it feels good to know I've been at this for awhile and I am not overwhelmed by the whole New Year's resolution junk.  I've known success on my own... that is empowering!

We are getting into the nitty gritty of basketball season finally and that is a good thing.  I think the coaches and the program were getting pretty antsy with all the snow and game cancellations.  

In a week we go down to the orthopedist and have Beau's feet checked and hopefully can rid ourselves of the Bar...should I mention that Beau has gotten himself out of it two nights this week?  Turkey.

So there you are.  An update.  Sorry the rat post was up for so long *sigh*.
