i took a ton of pictures of her.

so that means ...
my poor kids got a nice break from my camera!

jacks new favorite thing is to listen to my ipod,
just chillin out on "his" chair..

his favorite song is poison.. by bell biv devoe! HA!

fathers day..

if these kids only knew how lucky they are..
makes me happy to know that someday, they will.







when i asked todd what he wanted to do today,
even after working midnight to 830 am,
he said he wanted to come home from work,
go to the park, and take jack out on a kayak,
then wanted me to make chicken francese for dinner
(his favorite)
and wanted to chill out for a bit with the kids.
so thats what we did.
