Adventures with Charolotte

I've been having so much fun spending time with Charlotte lately. Her personality is blossoming so much, and it is causing me to be the proud overly enthusiastic "look at this picture of my daughter I took the other day" type parent...

This is her with some Batman 3D glasses (wchich she put on herself, I might add)




These are pictures I took last week of her eating her first apricot (which she LOVED!). I grew up with an overly productive apricot tree in my back yard, and have eaten literally millions of them. I'm not surprised she loves them too.




This a picture of Charlotte eating her first official Happy Meal at the McDonald's I work at (don't ask)


Lastly, these are pictures of Charlotte in nursery at church on Sunday. I took her in to get practice for when she turns 18 months old and can be left in there alone. She really needs reverence practice, lol.

Snack time.


Coloring after the lesson (which she failed miserably to sit through).

Next stop... Julliard

Our up and coming prodigy ; )

Commencement Ceremony

Grad pic from my phone...

It's official!  I finished school in December, but couldn't walk til spring... now I'm officially DONE!!  Woohoo.... unless I go for a credential or a master's that is.

I hoped, and was totally right!!

I noticed him in the third week of the finals... and he delivered every week after.  Go Kris!

She loves her sweets!

Holly is mad at me because I clued Charlotte in on the fact that sweets (candy, cake, cookies, colored drinks, etc.) are good. Now we have to be careful or she won't eat anything else!!

Finally!!

Good Riddance! It's amazing how far a pretty face can take you in a singing competition... LAME!!

Michael's gone!!

Michael the oil rig guy is off American Idol at last.... Now, just a couple more sub-par singers to get rid of and we'll really have a proper competition ; )

Yosemite

Went to Yosemite with friends yesterday. Beautiful fun, fun, fun!

took this pic with my phone...

Reunited with An Old Friend...

I love this album! It has been at least three years since I've heard it though; dunno what happened to my CD, and I didn't have it on my Mac. Anyway, today I downloaded it and we had a wonderful reunion listening session.

Playlist

I'm kind of fascinated by making playlists right now. It seems that the age of the mixtape is over for many reasons, not the least of which is that the "tape" is now obsolete. Now with iPods/iPhones and other portable media players being so common it is fun to make playlist of ones' favorite jams, be they slow, hard, melancholy, or whatever. I made my wife a playlist of songs that make me think of her for Valentine's Day (she loved it). Needless to say, I've made a lot of playlists lately... now on to the sharing : )

Cute with Curlers....

Found this picture... I love it!

Rough Neck Sucky Guy...

I DON'T like this guy...

Boot him off!!!

TOP 13!!

While I was watching American Idol last night I got sad when it looked like Anoop was going to go home. I started clapping when Simon told him they were taking 13 this year. I've watched Idol off and on a few times, mostly because other people were interested; but this year is the first time I've watched from the start. I'm not saying that Anoop is gonna win, I haven't decided my pick yet, but I like him...

I can't BELIEVE it!!

WHY did they give this Broad a chance at a wild card spot?
RIDICULOUS

This guy deserved it, though...

Scary...

Look like a crazy stalker to you?

I've been reading the excerpt that was released of Midnight Sun, and I have to say Edward can be pretty scary. Don't get me wrong, I still like him; it is just a little creepy to see in to his thought processes.

Nose Picker

So Charlotte has started picking her nose...

The World of Blogging

I've decided to join the world of blogging. Everyone is doing it; and being the conformist that I am, how can I resist?

I plan on providing snap shots in to my world: the amusing, the happy, sad, and grim alike. Hopefully you'll still like me afterward...
