My baby is turning into a little boy

*He is currently off his pacifier

*Refuses to sleep with his stuffed dog

*Really? Potty training?

*Goes by himself on the sled

*Repeats our words like a mad man

Omniture welcomes a new employee, Joshua Teare!

You ask: What do they do?

I say: Great question, something to do with web marketing.

Maybe I will know soon. At least Josh is more knowledgeable in this category.

You can ask him more about it when you are able to catch this busy man.

Congrats my love!

Merry Christmas!

The weather is so nice for a little stroll

This month is a little crazy! Josh is doing his finals and I am...

I was inspired by my dear friend Camille, (www.camilleroskelley.typepad.com) to make some Christmas stockings. I am in the middle of the project, and thinking I should have started last Christmas. I blame her for making me stay up till 5 in the morning. Just kidding. Anyone who visits her, be prepared for no sleep! I kept telling myself visiting w/her was totally worth the lack of sleep.

My hours were increased at work since window washing is not the most ideal during the winter season.

Of course these little feet keep me very busy.

Oh, and I am playing with a quartet for our church. When I play with the group, I just smile constantly because it is so much fun! I never thought in a million years I would actually be giddy over playing my violin.

Is it bad when you wake up wanting to eat mac and cheese for breakfast?

Make sure you sauce is very thick. I added some heavy cream. The flavor is fantastic!

A wintry time at Gardner Village

Even though Preston has a little fever he does not shirk his responsibilities of ironing

Preston has a hobby.

Preston James Teare | 16.86 months

Learning some photography with our cute son.  Sarah took this picture at home in ID with our new Canon.  I've enhanced it a little bit with Photoshop and Lightroom.  I still haven't figured out how to preserve image quality when uploading using Picasa and Blogger.  I uploaded this picture through Flickr, then embedded it in the HTML, and it seems to have worked well.  I even tried the same process with Picasa - no dice.  Pilk, help!
