Some Pictures

Look at those teeth!!! And what you can't see is that the two right next to the tops ones have already broken through! Crazy! (don't look at me.... my hair is still wet! :) )

Lazy afternoons at the jumper. This is Ryland and her best friend / neighbor, Zach. They spend most afternoons together playing. (Or should I say "parallel playing", Laura!?!)

Lost Blog Roll!!!

OH NO! When I updated my layout I seemed to have lost my blog roll!!!! Please help me! I can't remember every one's URL and need you to comment to this post so that I can add you to my blog roll again!

Thanks!!!

New Look

OK, so sometimes, I'm all about change. I find that if I change things up then I get more interested in them. For example, when I am sick of my living space I know that if I move the furniture around or change the pictures on the wall then.... bam.... its like a new space again. This is defiantly an inherited trait (disorder) thanks to my mom! I remember just about every school break we would rearrange different rooms of the house or just a few cabinets in the kitchen and it always seemed to work.

So, I'm trying it here. I figured, maybe if I give my blog a make-over then I will be more interested in it and start blogging more.

Short and Sweet

Ha, ha, OK, I will post something for goodness sake! :) Sorry, I've been kind of in a dry spell and haven't been getting on the computer much anymore, but I will get better at it. This one is going to be short, but a good one! I just found the coolest site:

retailmenot.com

You can go here and type in any store you are going to shop at. Then a list of potential coupons comes up. I just bought a Christmas present for a certain someone and got free shipping because of this site!

I will post pictures from Thanksgiving and an update later on, just wanted to share this with you!
