welcome home, corley


After a our 2 week vacation, we came home to a nice surprise--Corley has decided to come back and join us and his friends! We found him chillin' out by our grill since he was locked out.

I hadn't heard from him since October of last year. Long story made short, I came to find out he hit a rough patch, got mixed up with the wrong crowd, and spent the last little while fixing himself up in rehab. He still can't give up the pipe, however. Oh well, we all have our vices.

happy daddy's day!

You're an awesome dad, Michael! I couldn't ask for a better husband, and Scarlett couldn't ask for a better daddy! She sure does love you!




Happy Father's Day!

Scarlett loves bath time!

She fell asleep like this. Looks comfortable, right?





playing air guitar...

7 weeks old. Nothing cuter than babies wearing shoes!

happy face . scarlett grace

When Scarlett gets up in the morning I usually get big smiles now. It's pretty dang cute. She'll even do it when she wakes up in the middle of the night. That little grin just seems to wipe away the grogginess.

Saturday morning I kept checking in on her while I was getting ready. She had sneaked her hand up to her mouth at one point. A little while later I hear Scarlett making some noise. I find her at the bottom of her wedge pillow thing using the bassinet as a foot rest (which is pretty normal) with her whole arm out (not so normal), and she was just beaming! She seemed so proud that she had conquered the swaddle-me velcro wrap.


Scarlett is such an awesome baby. We have our bad days, but she's made this transition into parenthood pretty easy for Michael and I. We love our little girl!

dear templeton,


I've seen you in our backyard.

You are disgusting.

Don't eat our garden.

Or else I might be tempted to put out one of these...


Except I am scared of catching one of these....


Ye be warned.
