she comes home from school, we have lunch, and then we both come up to the office to get some more work done. i make her wear headphones so i can listen to my music and not club penguin.
she happily dances about the parental approved internet sites on her internet browser, and i happily listen to her giggle.
its not too long before its time to gather up the rest of the gang, and get swept up in the chaos of homework, snacks, and errands. this part of my day is the calm before the storm.
(hey guys…the look into frame, smile and relax print is a photo that i took in san francisco and had printed on canvas. its from the inside of a photo booth.
the print hanging on my door is by linzie hunter “dont put off your happy life” and can be found HERE!)
sounds like quite the happy life
LOVE it! I can ‘hear’ her!!! :)
I so love this pic.
Is that wrapping paper in the corner?
I still love looking at the way you’ve decorated this room. :)
I remember loving those early kindergarten days, I reveled in our time together while everyone else was gone…

I need a bigger desk and to rearrange my studio.. and.. i should do this.. which is brilliant.. so.. thank you tara for the work I am about to do. and for the happy giggles I will no doubt hear soon.
hehe cute. love the wrapping paper, btw :]
That is so sweet. I miss my daughter being that age.
Where did you get that killer print on your wall that says “Look into frame…smile and relax”? I want one!
that is such an awesome shot and piece of real life.
What. Don’t tell me you don’t love the sounds of Club Penguin? I love hearing my kids giggle as they play on the computer too. Love the lighting in this picture. And your look into frame smile and relax sign.
Darling! She is so happy! Livin’ her happy life, just like mommy!
I love love LOVE it when you show us glimpses into your world. :)
what a fantastic routine!
She is stinking cute! We are puffle collectors also.
This is so cute!!
you can almost hear her giggling in this shot.. I really lke the way you describe this time with her
Awh! Very sweet. My children love club Penguin. If they could they would spend Hours on that site.
tara, your bulletin board – where did you get that adorable poster “don’t put off your happy life”? I love it. glad you are back to regular blogging, i missed your posts!
Love this post. I miss that time I had with just Jake too. Somehow lately I have had the time to spend that one on one time with both of them and I cherish that so much. Love hearing the giggles too!
Oh my Tara! This post is so adorable! I can relate with three kids of my own! It’s fun when we’re all clicking away on our computers :)
what a great picture of her!
she’s so adorable!
love to see the pics of your kids.
you know they are my FAVE!

I keep showing James pictures of Anna saying “See James we could have one of our very own.” I don’t think he is buying it…I am working on it though. I love your office! So cheery and bright.
Love your room. I would like one where we can be together too. Because our room is too small for 2 computers.
I just figured out what it is I’m missing…My kids need head phones. Great space.
How cute, she looks like she enjoys her time with you. Love the room as well!
oh, I didn’t even notice that the header works perfectly now…i was so entranced with your office. I’ve chosen my office wall as my OPAM for February (but since I didn’t start until last week I’ve given myslef an extension)…anyhow…I’m an IE7 PC user and header now shows up fine. Thanks!
Love your “Look into Frame” canvas! You should SO sell those…I’d buy one in an instant.
haha, i always get a kick out of hearing that people’s kids are playing club penguin from so far away! club penguin originated from a town in the middle of BC, canada, if you didn’t know…my town! it’s a highly sought-after job here. they treat their employees veeeeeeeeeery well. I’m glad mckenna is enjoying it!
baha…i don’t know why i said mckenna. SORRY ANNA!
So cute!! I think it’s great that you have gotten another computer for yourself!! Do you have your external hard-drive set up yet?? Anna looks like such a big girl. I know I’m gonna blink and that will be my girls:0)
Times you will treasure forever. Isn’t listening to your children giggle the best sound in the entire world?
Love the canvas and the print from Thumbtack Press.
I agree you should sell the “look into frame smile and relax” It is perfect.
