TEASER!!!

Erin and Tracy both took six month photos for Jossalyn this weekend

Sadie and Higs took some shots of her a few weeks prior (www.sadiehigs.blogspot.com Under Kids and date 4.13)

Just about me - alittle Jo I suppose too!

This past weekend whilst in VIRGINA we went over to JACK BROWNS TATTOO REVIVAL and got some more work done. Here is my foot - DEFINATLY wouldn't recommend getting a foot done. Or getting something of that size with that much detail atleast. It was definatly not "good" feeling but after an hour and a half I was done and in a bit of shock (chattering my teeth and whatnot) but was done and ready to relax while Derek sat for his outline of the beginning of his sleeve.

Here is the top, NO my toes are not THAT dirty its the leftover ink from the outline.

Better view of the flower itself.
The Stem and leaves done freehand by my favorite bearded fellow, Kenny, ... notice the J??

NO this was NOT posed, We were taking a nap at Erin and Tracy's and this is how Derek found us - luckily I got up due to the flash before Jossalyn could plop off!

TERRIFIED

I believe when she goes in for her 6month appointment on Wednesday she gets her MMR vaccine and I am TERRIFIED.

I truly trust our pedi and what he says but just that slight chance that something could go wrong terrifies me. Jossalyn has such a personality and is such and incredibly delightful and happy little girl I would be devistated to lose that if something would go wrong and her immune system couldn't take it.

I don't know why I am posting this and I know I have the option to NOT allow the MMR vac but I also (i know its just tv) watched an episode of some show the other day and alittle baby died from NOT getting the shot BC he got the measles.

Oh why does parenting have to be so difficult!!

Exactly why SOME shouldn't have kids!

Shana Brown of Uniontown, Pa., was charged with drugging her 13-year-old daughter so the mom's boyfriend, Duane Calloway, could get the girl pregnant, police said April 2. Police said Brown couldn't have a baby with Calloway so wanted her daughter to do it for her. The girl told police Calloway tried to rape her three times but that she got away.

HAPPY 6 MONTHS!!

I can't believe my little Ju Ju Be is already SIX months old today! The time is just flying by us. I will take the obligatory SIX month photo when she gets up from her nap but for now enjoy 2 pictures from our tattoo appointment this past weekend in her "I can't wear pink everday" onesie that her Aunts bought her :P Definatly fitting!!

I was definalty worried about her since we were at Jack Browns forever but she was amazing. (Took two naps and was in a good mood in between that!)
