I recently put this collage together to send to some relatives back east. Since I like NEVER update my Flickr account, I thought I'd post this here as well. So you can see that my boys are not babies anymore, but crazy cute little men! :D Quentin recently got his haircut, so it's a lot shorter. Gavin is a whole different story... he hasn't had a haircut in MONTHS. Due to his sensory issues, Gav has developed an acute fear of hair cuts. … [Read more...]
Yesterday was my birthday and just like every day of my life, it was not completely devoid of drama.

Secondly... "Jacked up"? You seriously just said that? Lastly... you're … [Read more...]
So Mom had some crayons tucked far away… hidden from little hands… or so she thought! But then one afternoon, after nap time… Mom went in to check on Gavin, who was so quiet, she was SURE he was sleeping like an angel... YEAH RIGHT... Turns out, Gavin got a hold of those well hidden crayons and secretly and very quietly colored a masterpiece on his bedroom wall. Turns out, Gavin is a resourceful little thing. Those crayons were tucked … [Read more...]
