Hi friends

April 30th, 2013

I just wanted to pop in and let you know that Blogher is doing a Mother’s Day series and they’re syndicating the letter to Moms I wrote a few weeks back – check it out, along with the others, if you’d like!

And here’s a cutie photo of my babies I took last month. I’m still around, working, being a Mom, taking a photos…

Oh AND I posted on my BFP blog about a labor and almost-delivery that I photographed in the fall.

OH OH OH and Clara is a toddler.

I feel like I have a lot of things to share with you guys. Like, some of my new (and old) favorite things.

I’m just hoping to share something with you that you’ll love or that could potentially make you gain 8 pounds because it tastes so good. If that’s what ends up happening, don’t blame me. It’s not my fault.

Speaking of me gaining 8 pounds. I introduce you to my newest addiction:

I have serious mixed feelings about these chips because they’re so good, I wish they didn’t exist. BUT THEY ARE SO GOOD. ugh. SO GOOD.

Seriously.

good.

anyway.

Would you like to gain another five pounds? Yes? *high five* TRY THIS!

Now, this business is the creamiest most delicious ice cream treat I know right now. The problem is that I never stop eating it until it’s COMPLETELY empty which equals 880 calories and FORTY grams of fat. (those numbers are for real, folks.)

The other problem is that buying this ice cream will MURDER your checking account. $4.50 a pint. yikes. And when you eat 9 a week, or seven, mind your own business – that’s quite an expense.

So, I ditched it. It was so difficult to do but I had to. Now I’m hooked on this ice cream – it’s good and it’s about $4 for a half gallon. And I’m pretty sure it’s healthy for me, like carrots or broccoli. Yes it is.

I’m feeling bad because all I’ve done is make you all gain weight and feel bad about yourselves , so let me help by telling you about my favorite eye cream, k? (you know, TO HIDE THOSE ASSHOLE WRINKLES.) (that said EYE cream, not ICE cream, by the way. Get your mind out of the freezer, god.)

I’m not going to lie to you, this stuff is EXPENSIVE but, it lasts forever. I started using it in February 2010 and I just purchased my fourth container of it. Think about how some of us spend this type of money on ice cream without even thinking about it. *cough*

This is Extra eye repair by Bobbi Brown, it’s $69 but it works. I actually went without for a few days and looked in the mirror and saw the difference in my eyes. It was drastic. (and it also killed me how wrinkly my skin was. UGH. SO OLD.) It works. Also, I only use Bobbi Brown products on my face (except I use a clinique moisturizer and it’s possible that lots of people tell me I look much younger than my actual old age. I’m just saying.)

and finally.

If you’re built like me and you have a bit of a bulging, flabby, squishy belly, THROUGH NO FAULT OF MY OWN, DO NOT SEE ABOVE…then you may love these jeans. They’re my new favorite. They’re not too tight around my thighs and I can *ahem* TUCK my belly neatly into my jeans. They’re a good fit and not expensive.

Anything with the Sweetheart cut by Old Navy is a home run for me.

Alright, friends. I think I’ve shared enough! Happy eating, de-wrinkling and jean wearing!

 

Still.

Thank you all so much for your words of encouragement through comments or emails or Facebook messages. I appreciate the time you all took to share your heart with me. (although, the incessant, ignorant and, of course, anonymous commenter I could have done without, but that’s okay, that’s why I moderate my comments now.)

I know that news like that can shake you up. It still shakes me to my core, I’m still shocked by all that is happening, even though I’ve been living it minute by minute since last year. But it’s okay. I’m okay. We are all okay. I promise you.

I’m still the same person.

I still can’t wait to see my kids’ faces in the morning.

I still can’t wait to check on them before I head to bed.

I still love graham crackers.

I still love to photograph everything I possibly can.

I’m still grateful for every breath I take.

I’m still grieving the loss of our precious boys. (five years next week. That’s difficult for me to handle right now.)

I still eat as if it were my job. (quickly and with great focus.)

I still eat ice cream every night. (I did give that up for awhile but I needed it back.) (so it’s back) (forever)

I still work … a lot.

I’m still grateful for every person that hires me to photograph their family.
(always will be.)

I still laugh and joke. (how could I not?)

I still love yellow.

And coffee.

I’m still grateful for all of you who check in and leave comments and share how you’ve been reading for awhile. (that’s one of my favorite things. This is truth.)

I still plan to be here. Writing. Sharing. Like always.

 

Exactly.

I came across this quote in a book. I decide to created a jpeg out of it and share it with you because OMG – YES.

Hi. and help.

January 9th, 2013

Sometimes Anna will email with that in her subject line and in her message. Just hi. It’s simple and gets her point across. I usually reply back with Hi, I love you. or Hi, shouldn’t you be reading? or Hi, let’s eat some nachos. It starts off a good conversation, typically, but sometimes, that’s really all she has to say. And that’s okay.

So, I’m still here. Alive. Ticking. Moving. Shaking. Breathing. I haven’t disappeared entirely. I’m on my business Facebook page almost everyday. I post to Instagram pretty often. (username: foldinglaundry)

I also send out emails from time to time from my business page – you can sign up here, if you’d like.

I’m also running a quick little promo for my business. (just in case you’re in the area)

I’m around.

But maybe you can help me get back in the groove of blogging, if you are so inclined. Ask me a question. About anything. Well, almost anything. I’ll pop back and answer as many as possible. Like soon. For real.

In the meantime, here’s a peek at how big my sweet baby Clara is getting.
