Archives for 3.13.12

I know I said I’d end this tradition

3.13.12

I know, I know. Last year, I said this wouldn’t happen again.

I can defend myself. 
Yes, it was my suggestion. But, she said she wanted to do it. She even put a teeny bit on her nose herself. For some reason, when Mark added to that teeny bit, well, she lost it. And, I took pictures. 
I had to. 
It’s tradition.
2nd birthday.
(makes me smile that she is still wearing this top.)

And, 1st birthday. 
(and, yes, their cake totally trumps mine.)
You know what she said when all the trauma was over? 
“That was funny!” 
Not even kidding.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
