hi i'm back

I kinda took a break from the blog, not on purpose but things have been crazy around these parts. We've been busy running around but I've also been fighting some shitty allergy cold thing that has made me pretty icky and bla about sitting on the computer. Blake had a few days off last week and ironically I ended up getting a few shooting jobs. It worked out great where he was able to watch Olive and take her to swim and little gym class so it was a pretty nice change for me to be the one going to a job. It was hectic but it all worked out. This week I have a few more jobs as well and it's been tricky since Blake is back at work. Luckily his mom is able to take her tomorrow until Blake can get off work and grab her. I hate putting other people out since she works as well but I am also truly thankful for the work and the help with Olive. Just gotta figure out how to go from swimming, to the shower, to lunch time, all while keeping her up past her nap in less than an hour. Fingers crossed. I'll take the stress if it means I get a paycheck.
I feel like I have a billion photos to post and I honestly can't remember what has happened in the last week or so but the photos do. And ya mostly instagram photos.......

see i own a big girl camera.

dancing to descendents. the video that goes with this is probably my most favorite thing ever. i'd post it but there is a bit too much nudity. she went nuts.

sewing her backpatch back on cause i washed it and it fell off. not so punk rock.
