Happy Valentine's Day!

Every year, Trevor gives me white roses for all the years we were dating and red roses for all the years we have been married. This year I got 3 white and 6 red, and they were beautiful.

Getting closer to a dozen! ;)

2.5 Year Pictures...a little late

We had these taken back in November. Noah was SO excited to see Santa. (One thing he ISN'T afraid of!) He looks like such an angel in some of them! But looks can be deceiving. :)

Aquarium

We went to the Dallas World Aquarium yesterday. Trevor & I had fun. Noah? Not so much. I would like to add the following to the List of Things Noah is Afraid Of:

  • Birds that make loud noises
  • Otters
  • Manatees
  • Crocodiles
  • Indians (or actors who play them)
  • Owls
  • Flamingos

He is not afraid of anemones, snakes, sloths and any other slow moving animals.

Here are a few pics:

34.

Today I am 34. And that's all I have to say about that.

Project 365

I have to admit, I love this idea! You take a picture every day and post it in your blog. Several of my friends are doing it: Jess, Kristin, Kelly, Meg...

And as much as I will enjoy seeing their pictures every day, I just don't need that kind of pressure. You will be lucky to get a blog a week from me.

Baby steps.

Reason 458 that your ass needs to be on Weight Watchers:

You split your pants right up the crack.

In all fairness to my ass, I WAS crawling around on the floor trying to plug in a computer AND (thank god) I only split the lining of the pants. That doesn't make it sting any less.

Fall School Picture

Here is Noah's latest school picture. It would have been nice if they had combed his hair or something. Eh, it's still cute. :)




Mini me!

I took this a little while ago, but I love it. Is he my son or what?
