Wha?

These pictures were taken today.

I'm not joking.

"PB + J...What a waste!"

95% of you will be annoyed by this.

I added music to my blog. A lot of times this annoys me on other blogs, but I did it anyway. I guess I felt like sharing some music today. Let me explain my choices:

"Jamie": In college I used to sit in my dorm room and pine after a mean boy named Jamie who turned out to be the nicest, best husband in the world. (I realize the song's about a girl, though.)

"Passenger Seat": Probably my favorite band. Romantic lyrics. ("When you feel embarrassed, I'll be your pride. When you need direction, I'll be your guide...for all time.")

"When I Get Where I'm Going": Don't judge me because of the country song. It's kind of a cheesy song, but I still love it because I LOVE Dolly Parton. She's got class. If I could choose any person's singing voice on this earth, it would be hers. Awesome.

"Dance Me To the End of Love": Love jazz. Love Madeleine. She reminds me of Billie Holliday.

"1234": Feist is feel-good. Check out this music video and just try not to be happy. (Seriously, check it out. Just do it.)

"Over the Rainbow": Another beautiful voice I'd love to have. This whole album is covers of songs turned into lullabies.

"Hide and Seek": You will think this song is so freaky the first time you hear it and then you will be obsessed with it every listen thereafter. (At least that's how it worked for me.)

What are your favorite songs?

Jimmy crack corn

We're continuing with the theme of old pictures of Milo because I am too lazy to upload from my camera. This one's from last Christmas.

Milo continues to be the weirdest, coolest kid we've ever met.

He has started calling Jamie by his first name, except it comes out "Jimmy!" He'll say it over and over again until Jamie does what he wants. It really bugs Jamie. I think it's hilarious.

This is the string of words that Milo presented to me last night while we were driving home. He says the same things over and over. (A touch OCD?)

"Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay..." (in his best hyper voice)

"Who did it? Who did it? Who did it? Who did it? Who do it?..."

"Sienna. Sienna. Sienna. Sienna. Sienna. Sienna..."




Who is this Sienna, and what did she do? Milo is so silly. Kind of like his cousins?

All the leaves are brown...

Fall is coming in Utah.

Emily, are you excited?

I am.

Giving Apu a run for his money

I Simpsonized Jamie. Isn't he hot?

Little girls' clothes are soooo fun

I have been waiting all my life to have a little girl to dress. I daresay shopping for Pearl is more exciting than shopping for myself. Right now she is confined to onesies, but one of these days...

Call her Trinity.

My sister Sarah made Pearl these amazing blankets!!! She is seriously so good. I am a lucky girl today.

(My mom made Pearl a beautiful flannel rag quilt too. I will have to get pictures and post it.)
