Well hello there....

Messy house. Loads of laundry. Soccer practice. Library trips. Movies in Mommy & Daddy's bed. Early mornings. Home-cooked meals. Bath time. Mid-day tickle sessions. Lacrosse games. Karate lessons. Homework. Dirty dishes. Saturday chores. Cuddling on rainy days. Piggyback rides. Surprise trips. Long walks. Hiking in the Park. Playing. Living. Laughing. Loving. This is our life and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Welcome to our photo-journal.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone! Here's to health, happiness and whatever God chooses to bless us with in 2009! Below are are a few pictures from our New Year's Eve trip to Patapsco State Park. We had a lot of fun at the 'tire park' and on our little hike that afternoon.




Peace and love,

Hair today, gone tomorrow...

Or in a matter of ten minutes. So, she did it. We all have heard stories about how kids cut their own hair. Both my sons have played 'barber' at one point, though it wasn't a big deal because they were boys and well, the damage is just less noticeable with them. But Rowan armed with a pair of safety scissors (you know...the colorful, plastic, rounded edge, blunt, kiddie type) cut off all of her hair. "I cut my hair!" she proudly comments to everyone. Every inch she could get her little hands on. She's even got a few bald spots as well. Thankfully, Nana helped with damage control. I really think I'm a bit more traumatized than I should be. It is just hair, and she is just MY daughter.
