Biker Chic?


My mom and I gave each other makeovers today, and then we decided we had to have a photo shoot. We went out to my mom's truck and she told me to do some biker chick poses. Hallie wanted to be in some of the pictures. Here are a few for you to enjoy.

My mom said I made her look like a mix between a "desert rat" and a "silver fox" with "batwing lips". Then when she was doing my look she got confused halfway through the word "pretty" and decided to say "beautiful" and what I heard was, "You look putrid." Thanks, mom.

We had a great time. Hallie was asleep for most of it, but when she woke up she got into the action... my mom had an old foundation that was the wrong color so we let her have it and a sponge and she went to town... then we put a little lipstick on her. She looked really great. (Al, your kitty also got some makeup... but he's recovered, and looks like a nice little black kitty again.)

I just thought Hallie looked really cute in this picture with her bubble maker. She's addicted to it. She literally sounds just like that fish in Finding Nemo, "Bubbles! Bubbles! Bubbles!"

    Well, I clicked on the pictures to make them big, and you both look super. Amy, you did such a good job on Mom! She looks fantastic. And Ames, you look like two thousands levels better than putrid. ;)

    Hallie does look way cute in that last picture!

    And haha, I got a chuckle when I read that you went to pose by the truck to take biker chick pictures. Biker chicks . . . motorcycles . . . truck. Hm. It seems like you should have been taking truck chick pics or something. :)

    I loved the poses though!

    I love the pictures! I have noticed that when I go more than 3 months without seeing Hallie, I get very sad inside, thinking of her growing up without knowing Grandma Rose. . . . .she looks so cute in all her pictures, but is definitely growing up!

ThanksGIVEaway

This giveaway is now CLOSED. In a week we will find ourselves feasting with family and friends.  We will reflect on and share with each other the good things in life that we are grateful for.  And I think that's great, to give thanks. My heart lately though has been leaning in a slightly different direction, I've felt an emphasis on a different part of the name of next week's holiday.  My heart is filled with gratitude to people who have reached out in love, sympathy, and support when they see others in need..  Those who have voiced prayers, and kind thoughts and words on our behalf, and on behalf of people seeking comfort everywhere.  The people who have watched children, sent flowers, made meals, and done so much more to try and ease burdens.  And my thankful heart wants to GIVE back to these people, as a small way of saying Thank You. So today I present you with my ThanksGIVEaway.  You know those big fancy blogs that are sponsored by corporat...

Haven't Been Posting

Well, I haven't gotten on my computer much lately, and most of you are probably angry with me because I haven't been answering my phone either. (I know, I know, you hate it when I do that.) This really isn't the way I wanted to do this, but I think it's going to be a while before I manage to get everyone called, and maybe this will make you not hate me so much. This is the main reason I've been so sick and tired lately: This, and I've just plain been sick this week. It's no fun when you're not allowed to take anything! (Ok, I know it's never fun to be sick, but please pity me. Please?) :) So, look for Baby Rose #2 January 20th, 2010!!! YIKES.

A Lesson to be Learned

It happened again today. A mom was holding Hallie, and she said, "Wow, she's so light." I have no problem with this statement, it's true, and I would say the same thing if I was holding someone else's child that felt particularly light. What has been bothering me about it is my own reaction to it. Why do I get so frustrated with Hallie for being so small? (She had her 18 month checkup a few weeks ago, I know, two months late... but we got there. And she's 20 pounds, 31 inches. That's 2% for weight, and 12% for height. She gained one pound and one inch since her last checkup, at 12 months.) But the doctor keeps telling me that she's healthy. She is energetic (clearly), she is developing normally, and she looks good. So that should be enough for me, right? I should be happy with her because what does size really matter? Maybe it's because it's so frustrating to offer her food and have her throw it. So let's pretend she does eat as...
