The day I have been waiting for for about14 3/4 months. ponytail.

WOOT WOOT!!

ok, so it's a pretty sorry excuse for ponytail, and it was ripped out by it's wearer nanoseconds after this picture, but it was there. It was photographed. Therefor...

it counts!!

Isn't it cute?

I've been dreaming about the ponytail days since this little muchkin shot straight outta my girlie bits. The ponytail. and then in a bit we'll graduate to the frenchbraid (*shivers of excitement*) and then...wait for it, wait for it...NAILS!

I love having a daughter :D

All that glorious red goodness is indeed what you think it is.

Prime, in season, local strawberry JAM!! Which I made all by myself!

...with my MIL's help, of course, lol. what, you think I'm superwoman or something? Ha! Nope, just superwoman-in-training

Now that my freezer is stocked full of glorious red goodness, I can cross jam making off my life's list, and proclaim myself an expert!

P.S - Do experts wear white shirts while making bright red strawberry jam?
