    Don’t you love having a guy for a change? I love the one of him sitting with the guitar and the pillars in the background. Way to position him to grab those killer eyes!!! πŸ™‚

Samantha’s Sneak Peek

Sneak Peeks are always hard to pick just one or two, and Samantha was no exception. I had to start out with how completely adorable she looks here cracking up and trying to compose herself for her photo. (Of course there is no need to compose oneself around me, but this was the beginning of…

    The first thing I thought when I saw her picture was, “Wow, she looks like Natalie Portman.” πŸ™‚ I wonder if she hears that a lot! Betsy, you make everything so beautiful.

  • SamanthaAugust 26, 2009 - 11:20 am

    Haha I have heard that quite a bit these last few years actually… A lifeguard at my pool told me that and then one of the guys at my school swears I look like her. I’ve never really thought I did but thank you for the compliment!

I’m back!

My computer is back and I’m working hard to get caught up on everything. Man, that was PAINFUL having my computer in the shop. I remember when Today Show did a story about how they took a guy’s blackberry away from him for a week for an experiment on how dependent people are on technology….

    Bets, He looks SOOOO grownup in those little shorts and tee! What a precious little boy.

  • SherryAugust 24, 2009 - 4:57 pm

    I am still warm and fuzzy over yesterday. He was so good at the zoo. It was a good thing, cause we saw a kid older than Miles acting like a spoiled brat acreaming and kicking “AND” Betsy was like ” let’s get away from this”. John and Betsy really do a super job in raising Miles. a neat thing to see. Love you all so much.

  • Maya LaurentAugust 24, 2009 - 11:32 pm

    Ha ha ha! Love the way he’s eating that cucumber!

when in doubt, just look at a cute baby

My beloved Mac has been acting up a bit and with something so integral to my business and, well, let’s face it, MY LIFE, I don’t mess around to see what a little problem will develop into. So I’m taking my Mac to the doctor today to get checked out for hopefully no more than…

    I should have let it be known that everybody’s photos are safe on external drives. So no worry of losing anything. : ) Just a little work time lost.

    Ouchie!!! Reminds me of the week when my mom tried to electrocute my dad while doing yardwork and he ran a drill bit through her thumb trying to fix our couch. Sometimes, love hurts…literally.
