The Magic Number

There is a billboard I see everyday on my way home. It has the fairy godmother stating that the magic number is 4'9" -- until then kids should be in a booster seat. This makes me sad because if my parents had listened to that advise- would have been in a booster seat until about the 6th grade! how embarrassing

In other news, we have welcomed miss Klyee Addington into the world. I personally am so excited I have been waiting 9 whole months to see her- and she is as cute as can be. We went over yesterday to give Matt and Jennifer some company their own age and I gladly held Kylee for 2 hours so Jen could get a breather.

We rushed Winston to the vet on Saturday morning. He had been not himself all week but then Saturday morning he was pitifully sick- so after he got sick in the kitchen floor we ran him to the vet. Turns out that he has something similar to Giardia (which is what humans get from drinking contaminated ground water). Anyway so he has a few medications for the next few days and then all should be fine, he is already a bit spunkier.

Winston is also officially a "graduate" of obedience school- I really think as long as you have paid for the class your dog gets to graduate. He has learned some things- but the best part was getting to take a picture of him in the little graduation hat!

Adam and I are planning a yard sell. Since we are need in some extra cash flow we are noticing that we have plenty of things that can be of better use to someone else-I am actually excited about it- because I hate clutter. I really can't stand having just extra junk around- I think it stems from my childhood- can I get an amen sisters?!

I feel like I have been working alot lately. It used to be my weekends were work free but now I have work to do on the weekends with photography stuff- which is wonderful and something that I really enjoy- especially when I can help capture memories for other people. But my real job has been stressful lately- I am really ready for a mini-break, maybe next weekend when we do the global night commute.

Not sure that I am really ready to spend the night outside in a Texas "Spring" but it is for a great cause and is sure to be a thing of pure beauty.

Amanda,
When is your garage sale? And we see that sign all the time now too. You and I just barely made it out of the booster seat for adulthood!
