But since I don’t think either one of them read my blog with any regularity, I had to share these adorable photos of my brother, Andrew & his girlfriend, Xiomara (Zee-oh-mara in case you need the pronunciation) :
She is super good with my kids which is wonderful since, as you can see in the second picture by the look on my brother’s face- he has no clue when it comes to kids.
Last Sunday, Lisa came over bright & early so we could drive out to Santa Cruz to head to see our tattoo artist, Hudge at FU TATTOO. We’ve been going to him for about 7 years now so it’s always fun to make a day of heading over the hill to the coast & get tattooed & catch up with him & some of the other shop employees.
Lisa got a sweet anchor on her forearm.
I got the other half of my “I will be grateful for this day. 12.7.05 1.20.09″ tattoo that I started right before I found out I was pregnant with the twins last summer. I got on my other forearm “I will be grateful for each day to come 3.3.10.” I am so in love with these tattoos. Seriously.
I also got a molar on my arm and underneath it says “teef” which is kinda of a nickname that I am officially owning since I’ve got big ass teeth.
Hilarous because I was chatting with our artist and was like “I also want to get a tooth on my forearm. Like a molar.” to which the shop guy answered “Like this one?” and lifted his arm to show me the molar tattoo he had in exactly the same location I was getting mine. TWINSTARS!
Can’t wait for these to finish healing and start saving for my next ones. I am going to get my last name somewhere & then a shoulder cap of my favorite flowers.
She’s got some hand-me-down fleece jammies from her cousin Dustin & they are pretty freaking hilarious. They are like a green version of Max’s costume in ‘Where the Wild Things Are.’ She? Is adorable. Continue reading 'Sawyer.'»

The Baekfiets we plan to save for.
SWEDISH. FISH. Continue reading 'I wish we were Swedish.'»
I wasn’t even that big a fan of Alex Wong- but last night? I watched this dance twice in a row. AH MAZE ING.
Yes, I am a SYTYCD addict- since the very first season. Dance is such a moving art medium for me. While I danced a bit in high school- it was basically a joke. These people? Blow my mind weekly. Let’s just say that Sawyer’s dance school has already been chosen.
