Back on the saddle….

I was talking about being incognegro last week so IC ould get caught up - turns out it was so I could be knocked on my arse with a sinus infection. I missed work at my day job all week and didn’t do a single thing for Pinxit either, which means I am going to be doubly busy this week, I have two newborns to finish editing and get posted, four boudoirs (thanks family for showin up for a girl) a baby shower and a maternity to edit as well. In additon it is coming to my attention that it may simply be who of me to hire out finishing my website, (you know anybody?!?!)  Bri’s birthdy is in two weeks, and the St. Louis InterPlay is coming up. In addition to all that… drum roll…

Cammy had her first day of school this morning. She was so cute. Full post on that coming up real real soon. My baby is going to big girl school.

full posts coming all the way around!
