the family

another wedding, another family piccie.

Eddie

he can now say the word "nose" which he will say at random times of the day... my favorite of which was when he had been crying for about 5 minutes just quietly for no reason, then just stopped and said loudly "nose!"

Guess who's back....

Well ain't it been a while huh?

the boy got big, and dangerous and is eating his body weight in food at every available moment

toddler vs food

Kate o matic is at school --- holy sweet jumping jack mother of all lordy things at a midnight feast with bells on, who stole five years of my life? I want them back and now please!

Work is so easy at the moment, and so quiet, i can hardly remember what i did at school for the last few weeks it's been so quiet and peaceful and joyous.

I have also started lying a lot.

and finally, i have decided to at least train for the marathon, even if the chance of me ever being able to runa again are slim, it's worth the fight.

get that smile

love it!
