Photobooth

Tyler travels and when he's gone I may still have conversations with imaginary him. Right here, I'm saying...

*What word did you just say?



*Spell it.



*You really think that is correct?




*You are so weird!

Room Make Over Part 2 - Finally

I previously posted when we got some much over due bedroom furniture. Love it. Didn't love our duvet cover. It was heavy, huge, and way too big for the duvet. Funny thing is we had our previous cover for 10 years until Tyler decided on this Pottery Barn duvet cover. I never liked it:( So, I got "permission" to search for a new one for our new room. I found a new one (not a duvet cover - just a comforter set) on clearance for $50!! Ironically, it is the same exact color as the one we had for 10 years. So, with a few added accessories - lampshade, lanterns, curtains, etc. and a painting I whipped out (literally - 45 minutes and not fancy or perfect!) inspired from an etsy listing, our room is complete and cozy and we like it!

Tia the Toothfairy

Porter came running out of school yesterday with his tooth in a ziplock baggie. He bit into an apple at lunch and really knocked it loose, so back in class he just pulled it out himself! It is his first one and I can't believe I wasn't there when it came out:( He was so excited and even more so to put it under his pillow and go to sleep. However, these are the things Porter imagined about the toothfairy that we had to live up to...

She is very tiny.
She has a name.
She doesn't always just leave money because money is boring.

Then, we had to ask him if he wanted to keep his tooth or have her take it. My toothfairy always took mine, but Tyler's always left his:) Porter decided he wanted her to take it...

The toothfairy (named Tia) left Porter $2 and ring pop because his tooth was so nice and clean:) She also left a note and a self portrait of her tiny self.

Paper
Poo-poo
Pooper

*Doo-doo is not a regular, but came out this morning for some reason.

I call Tyler, Tyler, and nothing else...
