RRA

DISCLAIMER:  This is funny.  I exagerated a little on the bad things I wanted to happen to this guy (except for the the flat tire part).  Ryan got all daddy-like on me and said it was mean. 

Hello, my name is Shae, and I have a road rage problem. No, I'm serious. It is severe. I have always known that I get a little madder than most people, but today I realized I need help!

So, there I was driving along minding my own business. I needed to get into the turning lane to get onto the interstate. At this particular intersection there were two turning lanes and you had to merge into one to get on I-65. The inside lane was completely full so I had to get into the lane that merges (I probably would have done this anyway because it moves quicker, but that isn't the point!). When we started moving, the car in front of me merged over. I was going to merge over behind the car that the car in front of me got in front of. I put my blinker on and started to move over. The truck that I was going to get in front of sped up so that I couldn't get in!!!! This A-hole got closer and closer every time I tried to get over! Well, this set off that little trigger in my head. I was furious!!!! Of course I sped up and got over in front of the car ahead of him. There was no way in hell I was getting behind him! I wanted desperately for him to need to get over somewhere so that I could slow down or speed up to prevent it. I also desperately wanted to pull him over and beat the crap out of him. Unfortunately, neither of these happened.

Eventually he turned off, but that didn't stop my hatred for this man. I wished the whole way home for bad things to happen to this dude! Just minor things. You know, like maybe his car would break down. . . he would get a flat tire. . . his wife would cheat on him. . . . he would lose his job. That is reasonable right? I mean he did try to prevent me from getting over when I wanted to. Then it hit me. This is not normal!!!

So, I decided I need help.  If anyone wants to start up a meeting count me in. The first step is admitting you have a problem, right? Well people, I HAVE A PROBLEM!!!!!

Play Date

We recently had a mommy and with a friend and her son.  My friend Becky invited us over to playdate and we had a blast!  Becky's son Michael is the cutest little thing, and he and Liv were so sweet together!  I am totally jealous of his awesome little baby tan.  Thanks, Becky!  Can't wait to do it again!

I picked you a flower!

Watch it chick!  I'll teach you not to accept my flower!

What?  You think I'm gonna fall for the old passy trick?

Ok, lets try this again.  No passy!

That's it!  But, you're supposed to hug me back!

Forget it!  Why do boys always have to have it their way?

MIA?!!!

It has been a while!!!  I have lots of stuff in my head that need to go on here.  I will try to be better!  I am getting super excited about several things coming up, and I can't wait to share them.  We are starting to get ready for birthday number two and vacay.  YAYYYYYY!  Fun things to come and lots of stress in mommy world!

Saturday Fun

We had a great day together today!  I finally finished the dress I have been working on for Livi just in time for her to wear it to the wedding we went to.  She had so much fun!  My child loves to be outside!  On another note, I have a wonderful family and love every second I get to spend with them.  I really wish I could somehow stream live footage on here, because Liv and Ryan are dancing to Pearl Jam and it is hilarious!!!!  Livi is doing some wierd hippie dance, and Ryan is doing. . . I don't know.  Some wierd Ryan dance.  So. Freaking. Funny!!!!

She refuses to just smile and take one pic!

I actually caught her smiling!

Love her!  Love her!  Love her!

She was laying the flower down and telling it "night, night".

Making a new friend.

Giving the flower a kiss.

Coming Soon

Easter pics will be coming soon.  My camera died, of course, so I had to use my mom's.  As soon as I get them I will post.  She was soooo cute finding eggs!

A SEWING MACHINE.....FINALLY!!!

Happy birthday to me!!!  I finally got a new sewing machine!  It was delivered a day early, and I got put on call the same day.  It was fate!  Anyway, as soon as the doorbell rang yesterday my project began.  Here it is!!!

The cutest model ever!

Yes, she is rubbing desitin on her face.

Anything to get her to take a picture!

DORA AND THE MCWANE CENTER

We met Dora at the McWane Center during spring break.  I was very afraid that Livi would be terrified, but she LOVED her!  It was such a fun day.  We saw Dora and then explored the McWane Center.  We had a great time, although I did discover that other kids can be a real pain in the butt!  Maybe I should say parents that don't watch their kids are a real pain in the butt.  Either way, I guess I need to get use to children running around with no regard to other people. 

Not smiling, but she was super excited!

Playing in the McWane Center

She loved the water.  Mommy did not like the other kids playing in the water!

Big fish

PISH!!!!!!

One day she will want to take pictures with me!
