Veteran Parent Wannabe

This sweet woman and one of my best friends, Kyra, just had her third daughter (and we are the same age). She is wise beyond her years, and I hope I can emulate some of her awesome parenting skills.

Remember this pic... it was taken just a month ago.

This was just taken last night. She has a three-week old, and she and her hubby were ready for a night out in downtown Atlanta already

The Karrs introduced us to a great new singer- Josh Garrels. Amazing voice! We enjoyed their "Mason Jar Music" movie and concert at "Center Stage Theater"

Matthew learned his own tricks from the veteran dad

Even though he looks happy, Livia could smell his fear

Thanks for a great night Reid and Kyra, y'all are true veterans

If you want a great steak salad dinner (better and cheaper than any steakhouse), get some flank steak, marinate with soy sauce and balsamic. Sear on a stove top grill pan. Add to mixed greens with toasted pine nuts, herb goat cheese, and sun dried tomatoes. Amazing!

If you are a "Friends" watcher as I have been known to be, you will appreciate that quote.

Michael Flatley found his first fame starring in Riverdance, but he left the show in 1995 before its debut in London after a disagreement over creative control. F

When you smile...

The whole world smiles! This was his very first "conscious smile" Who says you can't dress up little boys for fun too? Silas enjoyed sleeping at the lake instead of fishing or swimming. Anyone surprised? Our newest pastime consists of singing to Silas until he shows us his new array of smiles. Matthew discovered this newest ability when he began singing a classical ballad... I won't embarrass him by naming the lyrics. It doesn't matter how tired you are, this will make everything better! I mean come on. Are you still having a bad day? Did that make it better yet!? Had my first few outing without the little man to go to coffee, dance, and this beautiful woman's wedding shower. Love you Christi! Thanks to my old roomie for some over-sized coffee mugs to start my day right. A cup of joe and the Word make life worth living. This is his favorite gesture. I think he's solving the world's problems. That a boy Silas. I knew
