Junior Picture:

I came across this picture the last time I was at my moms for my birthday (that would be the big 3-5...ugh!). Anyway, I have this issue with my eyebrows in high school and why no one told me about tweezers. So, I asked Piper if she noticed anything strange about me in the picture and she pointed at my eyebrows and said "These are a LITTLE big". Just what I thought. Secondly, there is a rip in the corner of the pic and my mom said that my brother, Patrick did it. When I asked if it was on purpose, my mom said of course not and Tyler said "Well, you have to ask". True, Patrick, true.

Baby Blankets

We are three for three - kids attached to crocheted blankets. Piper at 6yrs STILL can't sleep without hers and it's the first thing she grabs when she gets home from school. Porter loved his until he was about 3 and then he got less attached, which is good because as you can see below, his is reduced to a wad of yarn strings. Piper knows I hate hers even though I will be secretly sad if/when she decides to give it up. It's just a gross collector and dirt and dust and hair and probably slobber from sleeping with it and carrying it everywhere. She knows if she ever gets in my bed in the middle of the night, the "kiki" as it's affectionately called is not allowed, so I'll wake up with it on the floor beside the bed. But, somehow, I love Payson's. Maybe because he hasn't had the chance to drag behind him wherever he goes yet. He just snuggles it in his bed. And for some reason, it smells like freshly baked cookies - I'm not even kidding! I don't WANT to wash it.
