Frazzled

Finished a 47 hr week today. Was almost looking at working more time this weekend, but the boss said, "We'll deal with it in on Monday." Thank goodness, as we have two birthday parties to attend this weekend. It's good to have so much work that I d on't have to worry about being employed, bu sometimes it gets overwhelming.

On another note; the Capture A Day blog keeps rolling along. Interestingly enough the very thing that was supposed to get my creative photography juices flowing is actually draining them. It hasn't even been 2 months and I'm getting really tired of trying to find things to photograph. Especially since most days I go to work n the dark, and come home in the dark. Thanks to everyone who has been looking at it and leaving comments. If it wsan't for the comments I would have quit long ago.

More Birthday pics.





In case you didn't remember, Jillian turned 4 today.

Birthday!





Jillian's party was a pretty princess success! I've never seen so much pink princess stuff. It looks like a princess castle barfed in our house. More pictures to come.

doc visit


I painted this for Jillian for an early Birthday present.
And, oh yeah, took Jillian in for her well-child apt. today and she is 37 1/2 inches tall and 32.8 lbs! Yahoo. What a gal!

Princess and The Shoes



Jillian took a little bit of her Birthday $ (thank you all!) to Target today and she saw this dress and instantly found her size and asked if she could have it to wear to school tomorrow for her big day. then she NEEDED a $9 pair of FABULOUS turquoise shoes to go with it. I am SO jealous of them. She is truly my Little Princess. (the last pic is of her making a wish!)

Eye see you


I was messing around this morning with the camera and kinda liked this shot.

Jillian has a dream

Jillian asked me today what holiday Monday was. I explained to her that it was Martin Luther King Jr day and that he was an important man who helped fight to make all people treated nicely. She asked me if he was still alive, to which I replied no. "How did he die?" asked Jillian. I replied by telling her that someone killed him. After telling her that someone shot him with a gun, she replied, "Good thing there are no more guns."
