this week has been so beautiful. i wish the temperature would stay at 85 all year round.





on wednesday the kiddies and i went to the park with all of the wsbc mommas and kiddos. nothing more relaxing these days than sitting at the park while watching little addy-lou perplexed by her pink otterpop. tastes so good... wont stay in my mouth. but so good. and...its gone. i got a burn/tan on my back, tate got pink arms, ears, and neck, and dear addison got a farmers tan.





way to go mom... lets go to the park at noon and SUNBLOCK FOR NO ONE! addison and i were fine but my poor little freckle-face tate. i just cant seem to get it through my head that everyone else in our family tans and tate just BURNS. no inbetween nice color- always pink. incidently we bought SPF 50 today. i asked josh if he thought i should get spf 70 and he says, "i think after 30 its just getting a bit ridiculous dont you think?" i dont really know what that means, but his next piece of advice was to get "whatevers on sale" -sigh- of course. spf 50 is what we have.





did i ever say that he is the most fun to shop with? because i would have been LYING. when we go into a store he gets this look on his face like the place is on fire and its about to come crumbling down on our family and when we all die (from shopping) it will be ALL MY FAULT. he projects this "youre killing our family, and i'm dying first" look the entire time. then as soon as we return home his hot flashes calm down and the scowl starts to unscrew on his face he's back. his hell could quite possibly be shopping with me using his money for the rest of his entire life. i wouldnt rule homicide out.





speaking of homicide... no just kidding. but really, how do you transition from that?





tate will be debuting in his very first sunday school class performance next sunday evening. i could not be more excited. theyll be singing "Jesus Loves Me" which he practices the first verse of quite often- and thats it. it sounds like this: Jesus lubs me dis i know. for da biBOL TELLS MAY SO!! (he screams that last part... everytime). i'm just curious to see if thats how he'll be singing during his performance or if thats just a special version for mom. or will he be the kid on the end picking his nose... or the kid tapping his friend next to him, or the one waving wildly to him mom, or the one who just peed his pants... at any rate, Jesus loves him.

and i love him too :o)photo courtesy of stephen salazar
