when I haven't taken pictures, other than the 4th of July, at all this month. No random crazy Cam faces, no Meg drool.... so, I decided to take some pictures this morning.
While not all that exciting, I figure this moment in our lives is pretty significant, with a whole new chapter ahead of us (okay, that sounds a little too dramatic for someone who's moving a mile away, but bear with me. I hate change.) full of new memories in a new home.
Besides, it's good ammo. "Remember all that packing I did with two kids climbing all over me back when we were moving? You don't? Oh, well look- here's some pictures. Oh, you want me to spend a day at the spa, while you stay home and clean the house and cook dinner and take care of the kids? Really? Okay!"
It's also Birthday party season around here- that time from May-October where we have at least one birthday party every weekend to go to. I think I see enough balloons during this time that you could cover the state of Texas with them when they're deflated. Which brings me to the thought that my son will be four in just three weeks.
Crazy. Does anyone else not realize how big their children are until they look at them in pictures, where they're frozen for just a second to stare at? That's always when I notice how tall he is, and how much he looks like a boy now.
Anyways, just taking a minute to breathe. Really, I think I do forget to sometimes these days. That, and I'm drinking entirely too much caffiene. I was stressing about getting my layouts done for 3SB, but that's almost done so one less worry. I was also hurrying to get Hannah's birthday present done, which I did. I posted it over in the gallery. We're on the countdown now to less than two weeks before closing. I came to realize last night when making a list of places to contact for address changes that I would seriously pay someone else to do that for me. Magazines alone is insane.
Eough babbling- I've got to jump in the shower to get ready for a birthday party! :)

Look at all the progress you've made!! Jen said you stopped by today. I'm sure she told you we were out on Lake Conroe...took Madison with us. It was a great, exhausting day of FFF. I'll call you tomorrow.
Rita
great pics!
and in about three weeks it will all be worth it! ;)
Neat pictures. And remember to breathe...it will be worth it in the end :)
Carrie
Hange in there! It will soon be all behind you.... and then a great deal of new things ahead of you! :)
And I feel EXACTLY the same way about noticing how big kids are getting when you look at pictures. I felt exactly the same way when I look at the photo in the Father's Day layout I did this weekend. It certainly sneaks up on us.
Inhale ... exhale. Breathe ... Just like having a baby, the move will be all worth it in the end!
I feel stressed looking at your boxes. I say drink more coffee and stare out the window awhile...
I just realized I am two weeks from having to work again, so I want to puke as well. Love the pics though and if you think you are hitting the spa, tell Brent to send me as well
Here are some links that I believe will be interested
