some one likes annie. apparently.



excuse the lighting.. i was video taping on my phone while driving.. you're allowed to do that right? as long as you aren't texting or talking? hmmm.

three amigas

there are few people in this world that just get it. get life, get me, get it together. i am so lucky to have these two chicks.. ahem.. ladies in my life. we can go months without seeing eachother but always pick up right where we left off. i am where i am now with the help of tam there on the left, and i have her to also thank for my mate on the right. two absolute gems i have here.

thank you to them for being our models and subjects for an all too aggressive photoshoot. and thank you to bunker for taking some extra time to snap a few of the three of us. i actually took a minute to step in front of the camera.. daring i know right? they were obviously prepared.. i however was not!

please make a note

that on this day, one day before his 8th month birthday... he cut his first tooth. for posterity reasons i felt compelled to document it. since neither of my poor kids have had records kept. worst mother ever.

i love the winter

but this picture makes me miss the summer. sigh.

how do the two of these people fuse together? two strangers, suffering different loses? well stephanie has decided to pay it forward for all the love and kindness that had been shown to her while she was going through her own tragedy.
