Picture Perfect

It was another fun day of getting pictures taken. I was worried about how Kate would do since I hadn't been in to get her pictures done since she's been so mobile. It took longer than it has in the past but I think these ones are one of my favorites I've taken so far.



Thanks to Amanda for the cute outfit.

Muffin Tin Monday



I saw this muffin tin at this blog and I thought it was so cute and fun. What a great idea to introduce new foods to a child. I almost can't wait till Katelyn gets bigger so I can try this.

Have you ever...

been so bugged by something either for a short period of time or for a while and then all the sudden this "thing" affects you? I feel like this happens to me all the time and today it happened.

All week for some reason I've been bugged more than usual about Evanston street parking. For my friends who are not from around here (and for those who will know what I'm talking about) I live off a busy street, Isabella. It's a pretty wide street. Wide enough that two cars can easily fit down....that is unless there are cars parked on both sides of the street and then all of the sudden...no more room. Only one car can now go through. Now if there are two cars coming at the same time usually one will have to wait till the other gets through cause it is just not possible for them both to fit. Happens all the time, and I HATE it. So today I'm driving to church and I come to this part of the road where two cars are parked on both sides of the road and only I can fit. There is a small sedan heading right towards me. Of course I think he is going to wait cause I was there before he was and was already going through...but no..he decides to go...Idiot...There is no room. I have to swerve to the right to miss him and in doing so I hit the van that is on the side of the road. I stop (he doesn't) and luckily I didn't damage the van, and my mirror (that has popped out) is easily fixed. I was so mad. I wish they would just make this street a one side only parking street. Would make my life a whole lot easier. I spend so much time just waiting for stupid cars to go through these little spaces when it's a road I should be able to just keep driving on with out stopping. Grrrrrr

A Sandy Beautiful Mess


We had fun spending a few hours down at the beach again. I finally gave up on trying to get Kate to stop eating the sand.

She finally zonked on our walk home

My two loves...




Sunday we went for a nice walk down to Gillson Park. I captured some cute pictures of my two most favorite people.
