Im really just fooling myself by posting happy little pictures.
Most things suck right now. (except for my Tahoe vacation and seeing "Rent" on stage) but most things suck, so i often forget that i even got to do that.
Not gonna lie. Just reality.

Shout out to Cousin Lil in Canada
Cousin Lil,
Ive been wanting to call you, but my parents wont let me call long distance from their cell phones. While i was out, i found a telephone booth. I wanted to sneak in and call you, however, i cannot even crawl yet! So instead, i got caught and found myself stuck
on this chair!

Forest basically goes everywhere with us. He seems to enjoy himself where ever we go!

Big Boy Now!
Forest turns 3 months old!
We call this his "guardian sloth", because it usually sits on his crib looking down at him.(this pic was dedicated to Melody)
He also has a forest dwelling creature friend
We went on a family hike yesterday. 4 miles to a waterfall.
As you can see, my dream has finally come true...my child is wearing velour!
I figure, i might as well dress him in velour jump suits while i have the chance.
Now we can be twins. I guess all he needs now is a pair of huge sunglasses....but that could be questionable hahha. (wont happen, dont worry)
Forest is doing great! Hes changing every day. I feel like he'll be 15 before i know it.
He has been talking up a storm (gee, dont know where he gets that from), playing lots, going to the park, taking good naps, and going on random adventures with us. Hes a very happy guy. He also just started laughing. I caught him chuckling with Papa (his great grandpa) the other evening! Turns out he is already teething! Therefore his latest obsession is chewing on his hands. Little guy gets very frustrated though with his painful gums, so hes not always his typical happy little self.
He was so cozy in his velour outfit and snuggling with his sloth, that he fell asleep during his photo shoot....more to come after nap time!

The Bonnie Raitt Secret
While visiting my parents in Alamo this weekend, my mom brought up something I had forgotten.
When i was a young kid, i loved the music artist Bonnie Raite....yes, Bonnie Raitt.
I totally remember my dad making deals with me and using Bonnie Raitt cassette tapes as my incentive. It usually worked. I really wanted those Bonnie Raitt cassette tapes!
I knew every word to every song. I dont remember how old i was, but younger then 10 i think.
Now, here is my little secret. I sometimes listen to "love songs after dark" in my car. (whew, its out in the open now)! Here is my number 2 secret. Now that im almost 26, i still know every word to every Bonnie Raitt song....and she definitely gets played on "love songs after dark". So guess who's in her car belting out a little Bonnie Raite? ME!
Now that im an adult, (hm creepy) i actually take notice of what the lyrics really are and what Bonnie is really singing about. And im realizing how strange it really was for me to be singing some of these songs. hahaha
For example: "turn down the lights, turn down the bed. Turn down these voices inside my head. Lay down with me, tell me no lies....i cant make you love me if you dont. I cant make your heart feel something it wont."
This was always my very favorite song of Bonnie's....still is. But how weird that I was singing those words at like possibly age 7?! HAHA.
Thanks Dad for making Bonnie Raitt deals with me. And thank you for letting me sing all of her songs even though some werent quite age appropriate. And thank you mostly because i can now sing at the top of my lungs every time she comes on radio in my car!
Ok, now im really hoping my favorite song will come on today! And here is the link to it...ENJOY and know that im currently belting it out as i post this.
