Fire.

First fire of the year :) I love spring summer fall mostly cuz we get to.burn.our chimenias. I love the smell and the warmth. It's amazing.

Bandwagon.

Jump. Boom baby. Alright so I feel like I can be pretty free on here. So basically I'm feeling like Hell is where I work. Granted its really honestly not the job I dislike. It's the company and how its ran and how they let it be ran. Working with tons on woman, grrrr. Attitudes and bitching and grumpy and pissy and catty and clicky its annoying.

Seperately these women are mostly fun to be about. But ya their is one in every group.

Man um I'm tired I can't keep eyes open enough to type.....

It's been awhile..

Life as a mother is quite busy. I've lost part of myself while in the roll, but the amount I have gained is amazing. My daughter is almost two and she brings such joy to my life. I know its cheesy to say that, but its how I feel.

Since my last post we have moved back into wichita. Been hit by a tornado after being back only a month. (Funny story, a month after moving to Manhattan it was it by a tornado) We moved again to be closer to family. Had Lorens first birthday, so many things. Too many to mention. Oh And I accepted a position with a corporate studio. While I love the job I feel like its consuming my life. But that's another blog for another day

my baby bro moved to Seattle. Oh how I miss him. Sure I only saw him once maybe twice a week, it still sucks to watch your baby brother grow and decide to move away.

It's also mothers day weekend. I can't help but wonder if my husband will think to do anything for me...

Life as a new mom

Loren is going to be 8 weeks old on Sunday. and it feels like it hasnt been that long but it also feels like how did she not exist before? I am amazed by her everyday as well as being amazed by how much she has changed me. I used to make fun of women who just had babies who say they are the whole world and nothing else matters, but i realize now that i just didnt understand that love and that commitment that you feel with you see your child. There is no way to explain this to women who have not had kids, it really is just something you have to experience, if you want to. So insert every clichie statement right here about me being a new mother, cuz i do love it.

one thing that suprised me was that this love wasnt instant for me, granted i was deadly ill the first three weeks of her life and didnt get to be with her much and that might have something to do with it, but it wasnt untill around the 1 month mark that i realized how much she means to me and how important she is. Crazy how much this changes a person, my brain doesnt even THINK the same now. my theory is that reason women get "baby" brain is because it is rewireing it self for motherhood.

As for the rest of the stuff in my life i graduate in May. FINALLY! Dec 2nd is the closing of my BFA show. EEK! it give me about 10 weeks to get everything done for it and ready to hang on Nov 27th.



Tootsie has crossed Rainbow Bridge, She crossed it on the 3rd of September. And my heart is just broken over it. i cant beleive that she isnt here anymore. How can she be gone? Monkey is doing ok so far, he has mopey moments but he is eating almost normally again. I will miss her terriabley for the rest of my life, i know dogs cant last forever but i honestly expected to have her longer than 6.5 years. so cherish every moment you have with your pets, you never know what is going to happen.

Ciao for now
