ahhhh summer photo drop.

A week until school starts. This summer flew by. 

I don't have much in this blog except for photos with the new sigma 24mm 1.4 ART. 

That and Sawyer's amazing birthday party. My sweet baby turned 7 years old. I don't know how that happened, but it did, and we celebrated with just a couple friends --- because I have done more than a couple before and my brain exploded from the shrieks and shrills ;)

This week is filled with meeting teachers, information sessions, dance, dentist appointments, and bunco. I am actually really excited for the busy time. 

 

 

day to day.

this new normal is hard. mainly bc i am not used to just.... sitting around. we'll get used to it, of course. schedule changes are hard no matter what its for.

i am going back to trying to do photo 365. i skipped 2012 (even though, i guarantee i only missed a few days between the dslr and camera on the phone).

i tried to do something different at first. i played with the macro a bit this week --

the past couple of days have been filled with crafts, legos, silly photos with my UWA... dog bowls... lol

luckily, ASM are pretty quiet while R sleeps. which is nice bc R neeeeeds a good nap during the day to stay happy ;)

omg these were for aidan. she was DYING LAUGHING at her faces when i showed her.


now while everything seems so... "normal", wednesday was interrupted by chemo. she had a vincristine appointment. aidan came with. :) which was fabulous bc reese was so giggly with her and showed the dr how awesome she really was feeling.


we went over to my parents' house to pick M and S up... reese obviously missed her.

some randoms from the week :)

i asked sawyer to put on PJs and this is what she found. yes, she is sleeping in it. 

and then, in normal skelte fashion, tonight we had a dance party :)

so as it goes -- life goes on. there will, of course, continue to be ups and downs. but for today, we had fun. we messed up a clean house, we blasted music and watch reese shimmy those shoulders, the kids made me nuts (lol. hey, thats a constant normal sometimes), and we loved. we had fun. 

next week we have more vincristine. this weekend, we stay home or mask reese if we have to leave bc this is a "low" wkend for her blood count. but im sure we'll figure out something to do ;)
