Pictures from my Phone & Weekly Distractions

Today is Jolyn's birthday. And by today, I mean Thursday. Because that's when I post Pictures & Distractions. Most of you don't see this until Friday. Which means that most of you missed Jolyn's birthday. And I'm not saying Jolyn is the kind of person who notices that sort of thing, but I am saying that Jolyn once gave my phone number out to the entire Internet and invited literally hundreds of people to text and call me to talk about Star Wars. So I'm not sure you want to get on this person's bad side.

Happy birthday, sister. I love you and I fear you. And I love that I fear you.

And now, your Pictures & Distractions:
Mr. Pants.


From Rebecca's hippy wedding.

Chicago.

Mr. Pants climbed into this empty baby carrier to take a nap, Adam took a picture, and the whole world exploded.

Mr. Pants gives the best snuggles after a long day.

I think I forgot to share this photo from a few weeks ago when Mr. Pants saw Matt working, walked over to him, and took a nap on his shoulder.

  1. You had me so excited there for a moment because today (Friday, October 28, 2016) is MY birthday!!! And I thought for a moment that Jolyn and I SHARED a birthday! That would be amazing!

    However, my brother's birthday is the 26th so her birthday rests snugly between his and mine and that's an amazing place to be as well!

    Happy late birthday Jolyn! You're the cat's meow!

  2. Why doesn't Mr. Pants have a modeling contract by this time? Sleeping with his head on Matt's shoulder? Adorable! Sleeping in that baby carrier? Adorable! Watching you take his photo? Adorable!

  4. I knew Jolyn and I had a connection. Sharing a birthday is the quickest way to friendship. Proven fact.
