Coincidence??

Last Sunday we had a family party.

There is always a baseline amount of teasing at these things, that is kinda the way the Taylor's roll. I felt that there was an unusual amount centered on my youngest son.

Yes, his hair IS getting long and it is mostly in his eyes. But hey, if your going to play rock and roll you have to BE rock and roll. The orange arrows point out what happens when you don't listen to your mom and go skiing with gloves and without sunscreen. That, I think, is the greater sin. So for craps and laughs I start pulling his hair back and ended up doing one of my wonderful french braids all around his head. Ahhh....so cute.

Kind of like an old German school marm.

Follow the orange arrow. Look at the picture with his hair down. Do you see the resemblance???

That's all I'm tryin to say......

Give him a few years, he'll have a beard. OR, if he's like his dad, he won't.

Sunday Lazy

Sunday I woke up and really really wanted to be lazy. I was willing to throw myself into laundry, but that's it. Then I saw this:

Dammit!!

I then walked into the bathroom and started cleaning, while yelling at the kids to get cleaning.

Someday I will catch him being lazy.......SOMEDAY!!!

Easter!

It seems that most families have wonderful Easter holidays filled with ham dinners and Easter egg hunts. My poor kids got nothin! Well, they didn't get anything from us. Easter started out with me arriving home around 8am from my third night shift and heading straight to bed. The little kids - Sami and Daniel - were with their dad. I woke up at around 630pm to a wonderful grilled shrimp dinner made by my perfect husband and then the kids came home. Luckily they had sackfuls of loot aka chocolate that they were willing to share with their mom that didn't even get them an Easter greeting.



So I found this picture from what appears to be 1996. I am nostalgic to the days when I picked out my kids cute clothes and they actually wore them. I even remember when Sami would throw a fit if I didn't do her hair for her. Now she wouldn't let me TOUCH her hair. Ahhhhhhh.....they are so dang cute!!!

Austin, with some foreign object on his head! Sami too! Just kidding, I actually picked out that hat for Sami. Don't you love the watermelon slice? Oh so cute!! Daniel , wow, is he a very white baby or what?? He was probably only about 9 months old there. And Jake, he was designated to hold Daniel because I'm pretty sure that Austin would have just tossed him off the steps. Austin was never happy that we didn't stop with him. He was figuring that our family would be a one kid sorta thing.

I love my kids!!

I plan to find some pics of Matt and his girls and get them scanned and do some posting. Trust me, they were some DARLING girls!!! Oh wait, they still are!!
