. probably so .

July13-1 


where do i even begin?  my karsyn amazes me every single day.  her mind is always going 90 miles an hour.  always thinking of what to say or ask next.  always remembering things we've previously said or talked about.  and always trying to put me in timeout.  her smile melts my heart and she knows it. 


we're going through the favorite-to-every-parent stage right now.  terrible two's.  i've always said that the special phrase refers to the two years between 1 and 3.  so, we're still there.  i see the light though, but i feel like we're still at the peek. 


and she knows how to get to me.  that picture is the very look she gives me when she knows i'm about to rip her little head off.  (not really, but you know what i mean). 


my favorite karsyn quote right now is ... 


karsyn - (at 6pm)  "i want a sno cone"


me - (thinking she's insane) "the sno cone place is closed"


karsyn - (duh) "pobably it will be open tomayo (tomorrow)"


and this ...


Seriously 


that is one of my favorite mykah faces.  it says "oh you have got to be kidding me.  another picture."  i have taken a trillion and one pictures of sweet mykah in the past 6 months.  second child syndrome as i call it.  you see, i was the second child.  and my parents have very few pictures of me and i like to remind them of that often. 


so, here's to my second born.  may every moment of your life be captured on film.  or digital. or computer.  whatever you want to call it.  there will be a picture. 


thankyouverymuch.

no ... peek-a-RU! 


Peekaru


so creepy.


can you imagine being behind someone with one of these?  you think they are just wearing a fleece vest and when they turn around, suddenly you scream ... "AAAHHHH!"  there's another face looking at you.  like a two-headed monster.


freaks.  me.  out.
