So I had some moles removed (that is not my confession) on my face. Two to be precise. They were not cancerous or anything, just ugly. I had an appointment scheduled yesterday and I thought it was just to look at them, not to actually get them removed. So when they said they were going to do it at that appointment I thought that was great. Then after they had already started the doctor says, "You'll need to leave a Band-aid on these for 7 days." One is right below my lip and I can't keep a Band-aid there and talk or eat. Since I need to talk and eat they said I could leave the Band-aid off but keep Vaseline on it. It looks gross. The Band-aid looks worse though. And the other mole on the side of my face is mostly covered by my bangs, but since I was Deb from Napoleon Dynamite and was rocking a side ponytail tonight, it showed. I didn't think ahead to all of the Halloween stuff, parties, carnivals, etc. Why didn't I wait a week? To be honest I didn't think through the whole process... meaning that my moles wouldn't just vanish, there would be scars where they used to be. It's really bothering me. Anyway, this is getting long and drawn out. But my confession is this: I now know that I am a little more vain than I thought I was. The end.

Family Pictures 2011
Oh the dreaded family pictures! Seriously, I have been putting these off for far too long. I hate trying to coordinate outfits, get us all ready, hope that my children cooperate, etc. But... I want to remember how cute my little family is right now forever and ever so I scheduled them and hoped for the best. Kate was seriously insane to work with! Our photographer, Matt Logan, had superhuman patience! We had quite the time getting her to actually hold still and even LOOK at the camera, let alone smile. So the one I will probably end up blowing up and framing won't have Kate smiling... but I'll remember the day and probably reminisce a little about the fact that even though Kate was wild and crazy and wouldn't smile, how darling and beautiful and wonderful I still thought she was. So here you are. *Warning, picture overload*
