i wish my kids would stop growing

1. i found these photos in my box of negatives given to me by the photographer. (she moved to florida and closed her business)

 2. i'm thinking these are outtakes or the ones i decided not to get.

 3. even though i totally love these. look at kaylee's sweet smile and ham's so handsome.

4. i think she was cracking herself up here. my kids are so sweet, i can't stand it!

5. this week went by pretty fast and i got some things done like ham's "apartment" got a good scrubbing. [he's got his bedroom, a hallway, bathroom and a spare bedroom all behind a closed door so we call it his apartment]

6. and i'm getting shit stuff around for a garage sale that hopefully will happen next weekend. [we want the garage cleaned out by vacation so we can park mike's car in there when we leave for vacation]

7. and i made some new meals found on pinterest that mike liked but not so much the kids.

8. all week, ham's been asking for chiptole so instead of going to the grocery store then coming home to make it, i decided it would be chiptole night.

9. but ham ended up being the only one to eat it. he even had to go and get it. the 3 of us went up to the woodlands to eat outside along the river. it was a gorgeous evening.

10. and i've been jogging/walking.  mike's catching up to me with our steps challenge and i can't let him beat me.
