today was creative dress day at school... meaning they could wear whatever they wanted.
Jonah wanted to wear a tie "like Daddy"...
unfortunately Daddy is out of town on business.
and Mommy has never tied a tie.
so we called Daddy, and he gave me directions via cell phone...
using words like "fat side" and "skinny side"...
and it's not perfect by any means...
but not too bad for my first try, huh?
Jonah thought it was great :)
then little sister crawled over to play...
she loves her "bubby"...
they make me smile :)

Love your blog, Girl! I have googled "how to tie a tie" before. Heaven help us mommas of boys!
So sweet!! Not bad AT ALL for your first time tying a tie!! :D
When I was a young teenager my dad taught me how to tie a tie. At the time, I could not understand WHY, I needed to know this. Now ever time, I do, I can't help but remember that day and that special moment with him.
Your little guy is adorable.

Matthew McConaughey said that once in one of his movies while tying a tie. I never forgot it! Unfortunately, I don't have boys so I may never have to use it! :)
Super amazing pics, love the "bog boy" tie.
Your music - I have the same version on my ipod - one of my most played songs. Always reminds me of Dr Mark Greene on the beach in ER.
Oh, Erin -
I just started a blog dedicated to featuring etsy shops/sellers. I would love to mention your jewelry...I've sent you an email. :)
I never learned to tie one either. Looks pretty good, but who cares after seeing those angelic pictures of big bro and littlest sis!! :)
Oh he is so handsome I wanna eat him up!!! SOOO cute that he picked to dress "like daddy!"
