Tuesday, March 29, 2011. Today is Fiona's First birthday! This was taken at 3 months). It's a remarkable experience as a parent to watch 12 months of growth and development unfold for the first time. It reminds me of flowers actually. like the slow motion process of the buds opening. Only you don't just go to bed with a bud and wake up to a blossom, you watch every single moment of the process. I don't think I have blinked much this last year. She is completely pure, innocent and wonderful. Long trip to ...

Wednesday, May 25, 2011. On my way to the bank the other day I passed by this missing animal poster. I sat and starred at it dumbfounded for a moment and then went on. But the next day I walked back just to take a picture of it because I couldn't stop thinking about it for the following reasons. Who out in the city is paying that close of attention to pigeons? Seriously would anyone notice, "Hey, I think I saw that pigeon on a poster somewhere? I don't agree with the owners statement that since Charlie w...

A Mess of Happiness. Newer posts →. We’ll Keep Him/Acquiring a Third. October 3, 2013. But then the baby is found and taken in… and someone very small and unimportant takes that baby and does the best they can to keep her safe. I was always touched by Willow’s love for a baby that was so different from him, and what great lengths he went to to save her. Every time I watched that movie or read the story about Moses, I felt a strong desire to pick that baby up out of the river…. Who will love Lucas? Due to...

Out and About: Toast
http://tacymarie.blogspot.com/2012/01/toast.html
Thursday, January 5, 2012. I always laugh in Nacho Libre when he invites his love interest, Encarnacion, to his quarters for toast. Perhaps it is because my father is the self proclaimed King of Toast. as growing up it was one of the only foods (besides hamburger helper) that was completely fool proof. Not that my dad is a fool, he just tried to put mashed potatoes inside hamburgers once and will never ever live if down. Randomly I found myself making this video today and it keeps making me laugh. Just h...

Saturday, July 30, 2011. You are probably all very familiar with the $5.00 "Hot and Ready" available at your local Little Caesars Pizza. It is considered the "Greatest Value in America" as toted by one of their neon orange billboards. It always makes me wonder what song they are listening to on their I-pods that inspires all the pelvic thrusting and twirls? Monday, July 25, 2011. A Bit About Chuck. Here he is. summer buzzed head and enjoying one of his GIGANTIC lunch salads (the greens are hiding bel...

Tuesday, November 22, 2011. Well good news. Chuck got a job! Can you guess from the poster above which Village Person looks like Chuck when he goes to work? If you guessed construction worker you are correct! I like my construction workin hubby. Today he came home all dirty and stinky, and I just wanted to smooch his face. This job will help us get through the next few months and help funding for Chuck furthering his work with my brother in law. 1 Daphnie is two months old. 2 She sleeps pretty well, wake...

Saturday, October 29, 2011. 1 Crayola Color Wonder- These are those markers that only color on the "magic" color wonder paper. They quickly solved the problem of having to closely supervise color time. Plus Fiona got a kick just out of taking the caps on and off. Then she tried to eat the tips off a few of them :). 4 Stickers - I bought a few packs from WalMart and a blank notebook for her to stick them in. This activity was great and lasted for days. we would do a few new stickers each morning. 8 Someth...

Tuesday, June 28, 2011. Mommy breakdown day. I can't put my finger on exactly what it was that started the gigantic Indian Jones cannon ball of furry rolling, maybe it was. The tantrums over every and all diaper changes today. The complete rejection of getting dressed. The crying for milk constantly the second I left the house without a bottle. The tearing and bending of book pages. It could have been the throwing of bathroom trash in the toilet. All attempts to eat rocks, lotion, perfume bottles, garbage.

Thursday, December 29, 2011. This was our very first Christmas that was just us, and Chuck's sister Megan. We ate diner by candle light on Christmas Eve (a tradition from Chuck's family). Julia Child's lemon chicken, roasted red potatoes, stuffing, green beans, a light soup, french bread, and lots and lots of "bubble juice" as Fiona calls any thing with carbonation. Just look at those luscious cheeks! I just wanted to post this pic because I love her little outfit. For all the live action footage :).

Out and About: Stressful Sundays
http://tacymarie.blogspot.com/2011/12/stressful-sundays.html
Tuesday, December 13, 2011. I was under the impression that the sabbath day was supposed to be full of peace and rest. Not true if you are a Mormon in charge of primary kids. Someone gave a lesson in sharing time a few weeks ago about being good. she noted that "wiggling your feet in church was BAD" Are we seriously trying to shame kids for having the wiggles. Movement is important for young kids growth and development. Like puzzels or coloring? December 15, 2011. December 16, 2011. December 21, 2011.
