Confessions of a Mother

It's 2 a.m. and I can't fall asleep. I tried for two hours, but at 1 when I realized I was kicking my legs around, I decided to just get up. Mostly I couldn't fall asleep because I was lazy, lazy, lazy today and instead of working hard I took a nap, bummed around some stores, and watched a movie.

Family Tour

We just returned from a whirlwind tour to meet a lot o' family, thus the lack of posting. We started out in Sawyer, Michigan at the Taylor family reunion. The Taylor family is . . . um . . . large, and we were curious to see how Tate would handle it. He was a perfect traveler, sleeping in the car and at night and at nap time, and met so many people, he nailed down his waving technique. He also learned to clap his hands, which he now does anytime he is bored or wants to impress someone. Here he is with a picture of Grandma with the Great-grandchildren who were present on Friday.
