Flashback Friday - My Babies

I realize I threw Eric under the bus last week when I posted the picture of him in high school. It was just too priceless and I 'sort of' had his permission.


Sort of.


Anyway, he was a great sport about it. However, I did promise I would redeem him by posting a picture of myself in high school.


Today is not that day.


And really that matter should be prayed over.


I think I may get to that by next Friday, but it will entail me having to dig through the attic.


In other words, no promises.


And no, I will not need for any of you to submit said pictures for that particular post. I have complete control over this here blog and will use good judgment when choosing a photograph to share with the world wide web. Well, as much as I can considering I graduated high school in the 80s and Aqua Net was the main hair staple.


None of that is the reason for this post.


I had a really nice camera for a few months in 2009. Then, I dropped it after E's gymnastics meet and well .... take a look at my pictures on this blog and you'll agree I now do not own a fancy camera.


Either that or it's me. It just can't be me.


Yesterday, I realized I could download my pictures from that camera eventhough it took an XD card. (I never claimed to be a technology whiz).


I have loved seeing the pictures on that card. Some of which were of this house when we were moving in. Those lost pictures have kept me from showing you before and after pictures of my bathroom makeover, etc. So, now I can.


But, not today.


I'm a procrastinator.


Today, these pictures are making me laugh.


(Taken 2007 - found on a old disc). When O refused to potty train, we tried bribing her with Tinkerbell p*nties. Resourceful as she is, she just skipped the potty training and wore them outside her pants.

My monkeys on Mother's Day 2009.


O, you are killing me! It's so hard to get a good picture of the both of them smiling or looking at the camera.
This doesn't make me laugh. I just like it. This is my Mom.

How many things do I love about this - that your girls match, that your littlest one wears adorable glasses, that your mom is as cute as a button, that you got the four of you into a photo together (which means you had to talk a male into taking it) (and possibly retaking it?) - Love it!

Hey girl...loved seeing the cute pics of your girls and your sweet mom. Can't wait to see the pics of you from back in the day...(do we even say that anymore?!). I had a love affair with Aqua Net also but not as much as the other girls that I hung out with cause the curly hair just didn't always need it!
So glad to hear that you are taking baby steps into avocado land!!!! You'll be happy, believe me :)
On a more serious note, just want to let you know that I'm continuing to pray for you. God caused my path to cross with just the right siestas and I am so excited to see how He grows our friendships from this point on.
Praying you have a blessed weekend...remembering our time from last weekend :)
Oh...just have to share...I'm having Texas sheet cake tonight! (2 fridays in a row!)..my friend invited me over tonight and is specially making it for me in honor of last weekend!

The potty training picture is my favorite- her personality is all over her:-) I was just looking at old pictures yesterday, too, and sat at my computer sobbing... I am such a sap!
