tag me, i'm open!

Here's James in the highchair yesterday. He loves the camera, such a poser for me. I tried to retouch his snotty nose away. NOt the greatest job, you can kinda tell. I'm so sick of wiping noses.





Here's a little tag I got from Jaime.

1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? My middle name is Bea and so is Alli's. Short for my mom's name Beatrice and my Grandma's middle name Beatrice.

11. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? Rarely, I love the slip on's.
12. DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG? Physically? no, there was a time, but it is not now. Emotionally? no no, I'm a wreck, hello, I cry at TV. Spiritually? Yes, have to be or else imagine how I'd be even more out of control emotionally.
13. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE ICE CREAM? So many to choose from...right now I could go for chocolate chip cookie dough.

16. WHAT IS THE LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF? While we are on the subject my skin. But I am also a huge procrastinator.
17. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? I miss my mom, I haven't talked to her forever. She has been on holidays for 2 weeks. But my life would be complete if I could live next door to Jacklyn for the rest of my life.

I tag all my double named friends. The Melissa's, the Kelly's and the Sarah's

And a few more to overload you with James.




bye bye


I have no easter pictures of the kids. They were sick bums all weekend. I do have a few of the girls from our crazy girls night (well, not that crazy, just out til 5 IN THE MORNING!) that I'll get to next post.

I forgot to post these pictures. This is what Alli insisted on wearing every time she went to practice with Derek or to a game. She called it her game shirt. It's really one of those full suit things that snaps at the bottom and it's James' size. Here she is a week or 2 ago before the last practice.
