Why does the camera that I want have to be so darn expensive? I am hoping to purchase this baby sometime soon. There are so many cool places around here. If only I had a better camera. If anyone knows a better price than $1600.00 then let me know?

Patterson or Peterson?

Do we look alike or what? People say Taryn has the Patterson side in her. What do you think?

Taryn's favorite place to eat food. She is always getting into the cupboard when I cook dinner.

Just eating my apple slices. I want to grow tall and strong.

I'm 1!

Can't believe it. Where has the time gone. Happy Birthday little miss. We love you so much.
It's not Christmas but I wanted to have Santa Clause's white beard.
I love my cup cake!
Here's your piece of the cup cake. Wishing all of you could be with me on my special day.

We don't have snow but it's cold enough for ice sickles to form on our windows. It's a never ending process of wiping down the windows. I wish we could just get new windows.

First time eating by myself. Mommy gave me Ravioli. It was fun playing in it. Maybe next time you can join me?

George Washington's backyard overlooking the Potomac River. It's was so beautiful and peaceful.
We went at a good time to George Washington's house. No lines.
You can't tell but from all the touring that we did, baby girl Taryn got sick. It's so sad when you can't really do much about it but give them tylenol.

Appendicitis

Yes, that's what I had. It all started on Wednesday morning about 4 am to be exact when I felt some pain. Being half asleep, I thought I was just hungry so I grabbed a slice of bread and went back to sleep. The next day I was still feeling sick, more nauseated, more pain. I ended up going to the Urgent Care who sent me to the hopital for a CT scan. Through all the waiting that we had to do it ended with surgery. The surgery went fine. I had to stay at the hospital 1 extra day cause the doctor thought I looked too swollen still. I told him that I didn't start out with a flat stomache but he still didn't budge. Now I'm resting in bed and taking it easy.
