For real? This week has already seemed incredibly long!! Must be because I went to bed with a migraine last night. Boo-hoo! Pregnancy certainly makes headaches more frequent for me. Harder to deal with too because I can’t take the “normal” stuff for it. *sigh* Oh well, I woke up without the nasty uncomfy headache this morning so that’s good!!

My poor lil Myles isn’t feeling tip-top today. He came home from our weekend away with this “seal-like” barking cough. Poor lad! His little voice is horse and he’s congested. He doesn’t seem to mind too much, but the cough just sounds awful! I called his doc’s office this morning, but they were totally booked, of course. The nurse was nice enough to tell me that there have been some upper respiratory viruses, and RSV going around. Oh, well that’s encouraging to a mom who can’t bring her baby in! Good grief! Myles did have the RSV vaccine so I’m not really worried, but if he’s not doing better tomorrow I’ll call again to see if I can bring him in. Just in case.

I snapped a shot of some really great stuff the other day when we were heading to Stu’s parents. Starbucks is our “treat” when we’re on the road. I thought you NEEDED to see this picture, and don’t worry, if it makes you drool and you simply have to rush out of your house to the nearest S’bucks, they aren’t paying me for advertising.

Well, I was a little at a loss for dinner ideas, but one just struck me! Grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup!!! The wind has picked up and is blowing in very gray, gloomy clouds, so I think it’ll just do the trick! Hope you all are having a faster week than me. Toodles!

Those are my new backdrop colors! They came in today from Amazon, our favorite shopping place, and I’ve been having a blast setting it up and of course taking photos! I almost feel sorry for my lads as they are bound to be my subject matter in many photos! Here’s just one of the shots I took today…. oh well, maybe I’ll give you more than one. This lens is fantastic! I’m loving it!!

As you can see from the bed-hair this photo shoot was just after nap time. And yes, I did bribe them with fruit snacks too. Ha ha!! Oh and Myles found a water bottle left by his Grandpa, and refused to put it down for anything! Still, I think they’re cutie-patuties!

These were just too sweet with both the lads. It’s amazing how relaxed and ready they were to have fun while we where doing this as opposed to Sears portraits. I’m thinking hasta la vista FOREVER to Sears and JC Penny and ESPECIALLY Wal-Mart portrait studios.

So that was my fun for today. That and rearranging furniture. My mom scolded me, but sometimes ya just have to do it! I was ready for a change.

The sun was out this afternoon and it was warm enough that I didn’t need a jacket! The lads got thoroughly dirty climbing up and ROLLING down the little hill. But it looked like such fun! I had to intervene in the fun though once they decided to start eating dirt clods. Gross!!! They got plopped promptly in the tub when we came inside before dinner before play and all of that. I didn’t vacuum the floor for nothing today!

Well, in a rather random way that’s what’s been going on ’round here. We’re having fun, and still looking forward to more stable warmer weather. Toodles!

Myles had some important news to share. He has heard (I’m sure) that a picture is worth a thousand words and that’s good because he doesn’t have a very extensive vocabulary yet.
