Tattoo

So... we've reached the "other half" of this blog - the Tattoo's.  Yesterday I went and got a tattoo for Rowan. I got his name, birthday and a photo realistic picture of his foot.  It was a picture of his foot I took while he was in the hospital under the UV lamps for Jaundice.  I also had his actual footprint with me, but I though the realism style would be better. It is a little larger than I had planned so it is taking me some getting used to but it turned out well. I also had debated back and forth in my mind if I should get the actual footprint or photo and still not really sure if I should have went the other route - but either way it's done. I DO like it (although I know it sounds like I don't) - It is just taking some getting used to because of the size. For those who know me may laugh at that statement though seeing how this is my 9th tattoo and 3 of them are very large.  This is my Christmas Present to myself. There is nothing more important to me in this world that I could possible make a tattoo out of :) So - Yay!

Today was a neat experience too. When Adam came home I had a bath and when I came out, Rowan was sitting in his swing and Adam was playing the guitar to him. This was amazing! Rowan doesn't sit content in his swing awake for longer than 5 minutes. Adam isn't particularly fantastic at guitar (but who am I to judge, I can't play!) but Rowan seemed to like it LOL.. I thought that was so cute. I video taped it. I am hoping to make a collection of short home videos for him to have. When he gets older he's going to think I"m a total nut job! I have like a MILLION baby pictures of him already (he's 3 months), his foot print, hand print, video, TWO baby books, yada, yada.. Yup.. I'm maybe slightly obsessed.  I just know how important memories are and know how nice it is to be able to look back at these and either remember or learn about good times. I know my memory sure as hell isn't as good as it used to be so these little things help out a lot to jog the memory.

Anyways, that is all I am going to write for now because Rowan is passed out on the couch with Adam and we are trying to get some sleep while he sleeps!

Toodley do!

Love of Love!
