conundrum

I don't know whether or not my post is appropriately titled, but I love that word.

Baby Scarlett was asleep from 11:30pm-1:30am. Apparently that's enough sleep. At 4:13 she is finally now asleep again.

I ought to sleep too.

She's just sleeping in the cutest snuggle with me, forehead on my chest, head resting in the nook between my shoulder and elbow, balled up fists clasping each other, short soft legs curled up against my tummy.

It is so sweet it's making my chest ache.

I am sooo sleepy but don't want to shut my eyes. I'm afraid when I open them I will be at her high school graduation.

Sweet sleeping Angel, be my curious little bear forever. Don't grow older. Im begging you.

The best barbers in town: Casa Blanca Barber Shop

In the future I want to make a photo blog post about the awesome ladies at Casa Blanca, but for now I'll post the pics I snapped real quick while my husband was getting his hair cut.

 PS, the lovely lady cutting his hair is Jonathon's gramma.

Fix it friday: my edits, not my pictures

This is my edited version of that image:

So I'm biting the bullet and getting my sad eyeglass prescription updated and am
actually going to start wearing glasses.

It's either that or I'm going to have massive wrinkles at age thirty from squinting.

I'm at that annoying stage where, there's almost nothing that I can't read without glasses, but as time goes by trying to becomes increasingly irritating.

So what do I do?

In an attempt to console myself over my loss of glassless (is that an actual term?)
freedom,  I started window shopping for cute frames online and found these:

I do not feel consoled. 

I do not have the budget for Tiffany & Co.

I have the budget for WalMart, maybe.

Bah! (bangs head on keyboard)

I think every Momma should get to feel glamorous in Tiffany.

It would certainly glam up the various stains I acquire on my clothing 

throughout the day, courtesy of my darling children.

If you agree, I'll email you my PayPal info and you can go ahead and donate to the Lazy Mom.

Thanks in advance.

         

    

       

Winter Wonderland: I heart faces

Every Monday the iHeartFaces group hosts a photo challenge.

This weeks theme is Winter Wonderland, must be wintery theme and have a human face in it.

Such a big helper with the lights!

Stay tuned

As a Disney freak and someone who manages to make it to Disneyland on a regular basis on a poor person's budget, I get the question all the time: How can you afford it?

Well, it requires a lot of planning and research and planning on my part and I'm prepared to impart my wisdom upon  you. If there is anyone you know please direct them to my blog and tell them to click "follow". I'll publish my secrets (though they aren't so much secrets as a result of my experience) when I hit 50 "followers". 

I want to make the time I'll put into the post worth it. 

Here is a recent picture of Tenley playing in the Tomorrow Land fountain at Disneyland Park.
