Since we are speaking of color...

My sister-in-law Kendra took the kids to the Como Zoo here in Saint Paul yesterday. They have normal zoo animals, and then they have a little "fair" area where you can ride on rides and other such things. Mattie saw face painting and hair painting and I am guessing she fell in love. So, sweet Kendra fulfilled her every wish and did both!!! So here are some pictures for you to enjoy of my daughter. Wyatt did not want to be painted:( Not even a tiger. Sad for him. I will tell you that the combing out process of this involved Mattie and I both in the shower, lots of conditioner, and lots of tears. Enough tears, that at the end of a long two weeks of mostly being alone with the kids I am forced ot go out alone tonight. I don't know what I will do, or where I will go, but it will be alone.

At your request...

It has been requested of me to start a blog, and after reading some beautiful ones, I decided "why not?" I can't promise writings everyday, and I can't promise that it will be interesting to anyone but myself. What I can promise is that you will see what is going on in my life as a mother and more. You should also be able to keep up with us, as we are a busy little gang.

I love being a mom and, I find that there are not usually enough opportunities to brag about what my life is like, so I will place those thoughts and feelings here, and that way I can feel like I have told someone.

So here we go. My life right before your very eyes...
