Peanut butter and chocolate

Yes... you read that right.
Ever had a peanut butter and chocolate sort of day... I'm having one right now.
Just one of those days when:
-your morning starts with bad news
-it's followed by bittersweet news
-you're fighting with your husband
-your kids are clingy and crying and whiny and relentlessly annoying
-you just really really really don't feel good
-motivation to clean your house and do your laundry... is non-existent
-life just seems a bit unfair
-smiling feels unnatural
-running away seems like a reasonable solution

... but, alas, you must stay. So what will the solution be??? well, peanut butter and chocolate. I recommend always having a stash. If you always have a stash you will most likely never experience the panic mode that sets in when you realize you're just having one of those pb/choco sort of days. :)

(photography challenge was put on hold due to EXTREMELY busy month... but I will pick it up soon)

much love!

Third

Day three: Clouds.
Luckily for me there were actually some clouds in the sky today. Most of the time there aren't many clouds to be seen 'round these parts. As I was taking this picture my camera's battery light was flashing at me as it was about to die. So, I wasn't able to be super picky about the shot that I got. But the more that I look at this the more that I like it.

Random thing about today:
I am so cranky!!! I don't know what it is. I did not want to get out of bed this morning. When I did get out of bed I was just snappy and short with everyone. My motivation to do anything at all is completely non existent. I did make it to voice lessons today... that much I did do :)

... Until tomorrow.

DOS

Day Two:
What you wore today...
I love this shirt. I purchased this about a year after Kourtney was born. I swear this shirt looks good on me ALL of the time. Skinny, pregnant, post partum, fat, chubby, you name it. ALL OF THE TIME!!! Gotta love it.



So, today is Klo Bow's 1st birthday. How wonderful and sweet this angel is!!! One year ago if I would have known what I do now... I would have had NO FEAR!!! God knows exactly what we need. Especially when we haven't a clue of what those needs are. I love you sweet baby! Here's to another fantastic year spent with you as a part of our family. 

Challenge

So, I am addicted to pinterest.... but it's a good addiction because I actually use/do the things that I pin.  I've had a photography challenge pinned since I first started the whole pinterest obsession. It is a 30 day photography challenge. So for the next 30 days you will have a little bit of me everyday... yes that's right. Time to put a little crazy in your life :)
Day 1: Self portrait. Here is what I came up with...

Random thing that happened today. We were invited to play soccer with some friends at church tonight. We thought... why not. We can keep the girls up for a little while past their bedtime. Oh goodness. They were great but when we got home we realized that Jordan had locked the door and we didn't have the house key. At this time it was about 10:45 pm. So we go get a key from our landlord and it didn't work. Klo Bow slept while Kourtney and I played outside and Jordan called different locksmiths until we settled on one. (all of our windows were locked, good to know that it's hard to break into our house) 2 hours and $80 later we were safely in our house. Good times :)
