9 Years of wedded bliss...and other stuff too

Today, Jeremy and I celebrate our 9 year anniversary. We won't be celebrating tonight because of one of the realities that comes with being married nine years (forgetfulness). Here are some more realities:

letting our child eat junk at the zoo (something I NEVER thought I'd do as a parent!)

a sick baby (currently needing a nebulizer before bed to clear up his breathing)

jeremy committing himself to working on his film tonight (because he temporarily forgot our anniversary!)

an old-fashioned typewriter that i hope will inspire me to start journaling about our lives (since paper journals & fancy computers don't seem to do the trick)

spending too much time trying to find creative ways to camouflage lunch - in order to distract Finn from his toddler hunger strikes

and not being able to find a picture of JUST me and jeremy together for this post

HOWEVER...i wouldn't trade these things for anything else right now

all you need is love...

a sick hike

So all 3 of the men in my house are sick. I decided to call up some friends and go for a little hike for some clean, germ-free air! amanda took these pics of us. it's a very rare thing for all 4 of us to land in the same photograph. my fingers are crossed that the germs just flew right on by me!

discoveries

I discovered these two photos while trying to delete the hundreds of excess (and bad) photos in aperture. These are some of the good ones i hadn't noticed before that our good friend Alex (and the godfather!) took over thanksgiving. I really like them! (thanks alex)
