Two kids

How in the hell did it happen that I'm almost 30? And that I have 2 kids? Where did the time go? It seems like just yesterday I was living in the duplex in Pullman with my boyfriend and ex-boyfriend. Boy, was that a story.

Anyway, two kids. Enjoy. :-)

Strictly Alex

And to keep things fair and balanced, here's a treasure trove of Alex pics. He's just as cute as Emma. Especially when he looks at you all sweetly and says, "Mom, I like your pretty glasses," or "You're beautiful, Mom."

Strictly Emma

So, the natural tendency is to have FEWER pics of successive kids, right? Yeah, well, I totally went against the grain on that one. I find I have at least as many pics of Emma as I did of Alex, if not more. But to be fair, we didn't have our own digital camera when he was little, and I HATED having to take pics in to get developed. Plus I just discovered Shutterfly recently, which totally opened up my options. So, that being said, here are a veritable shitload of pictures of my freakin' adorable daughter.


More Christmas pics. This was playtime after presents but before she passed out.




I know I'll have to get used to this face when she's 13.


She really is ALWAYS this happy.


Mid-clap. She learned to clap last month. And she's starting to kind of say "YAY!" when she claps because that's what I always do. :-)


8 month photoshoot. Isn't the dress adorable? I love Carters.





I LOVE TOES. God, I love baby toes. I just want to eat 'em all up, they're so freakin' cute. (And I really should be arrested and thrown in word-choice jail for the amount of times I've used the word "freakin'" in this one blog entry.)

Christmas Pics

This was Christmas at my parents' house. You can see Emma in her second "First Christmas" outfit, the one that wasn't Alex's originally. Alex got several Transformers, that Football outfit he's wearing, and various other Toys That Are Currently on Amber Alert (since he can't find them. Already.). Emma got her first My Little Pony that crawls and talks and calls her Mommy. I died. :-) She also got a little piano and various other toys that, oddly enough, are NOT under Amber Alert. She also got a babysitter in the form of a black dog. Who luuurves her.
