worse then death

YOU GUYS.

JJWT is looking for a new even kickA-ier job. Bc he is such a grown up and hates fun and me being happy, he is worried people will find this by google'ing us.

{what? Aren't there like a BRILLION Jordan/Jason/Wes/Taylors who went to law/biz/med/dental school and married Tiffany/Amber/Megan/Nicoles???}, sooooo, he's putting the other shoe down and said no more.

:(

I'm not even sad for me I'm sad for you!

Your going to miss the crap out of me!! How will you know what to wear? How will you know how to be? How will you know what's cute vintage and what's ug?? You won't even get to point and laugh at Ruth w/ me!! You won't even get to see Derek's wedding! You won't even get to see Lynzii and I's fight til the bitter end! You'll never know what my new calling will be! What if I chop my hair and you don't even know about it???????? You won't know if Yvette ever manages to get married or how fast JJWT's yet-to-be-formed juice co takes it to the next level! What will you do w/o my oversharing??? You won't get to see Alivyiah TreCole and Tridger Kaegrin's aMaZiNg birthday parties, you won't get to see my daily darling design inspiration, you won't know what to buy or covet or tantrum over and worst of all...

you won't get to meet Brogan, who will be born in May.

THIS IS GOING TO BE SO HARD FOR YOU.

Luckily I've got the sneaky feeling there're about ninety hundred blog's totally inextinguishable from mine to keep you going thru the hard times.

Thanx for reading, for realsies.


Farewell, my e-BFFs, till we meet again in that great anthropologie in the sky.

belly pick!

Guys?
i'm WAY shy to share a belly pic {bare of course} and I seriously wouldn't
except all my friends and fam keep BEGGING ME even though I'm SUPER self conscience and feel so huge, so this is defiantly only for journaling purposes, can you believe I'm this preggo???

ICK!!! oh well it's so worth it right?

TAMNers' preggo belly, 24 weeks

baby's first cruise

HOLY CRAP YOU GUYS! I didn't blog for like an intire week!!! What the heck?? Is the internet still out there???

It was THE weirdest filling! Not blogging for that long, I felt so frumpy and all pioneerie! What did people even DO before blogs, ya know??? Even though we were on our cruise and having nonstop crazy rockstar party f-u-n, it was like, this eery feeling. I mean, if I don't blog it, does it actually happen??? I did alot of fun stuff but w/o posting photo's of it, or tweeting it, or facebooking it, or making tutorials about it, so it's like is it even really happening or is it all just imaginary in my head??? SO greatful for blogs.

Anyways. Way fun cruise still. Have a ton of bikini pics but am scarred to post them bc I'm such a giant preggo whale {this's your cue to beg me so I'll do it}}, also it was the baby's first cruise, even though by baby I mean fetus but it's darling and fun to count an unborn's "first's" as actual "first's" just to help burn up some of our time and energy! He was SUCH a good fetus the whole time but we missed Alivyiah and Tridger so dang bad, I got the best tan. Except now we're back to life, and the best life ever, except I want to remodel {yay!} but can't { frowns!} until AngelNugget get's reemployed. So, pray ok?? Seriously I kind of want to start a paypal account where you can click "pray" instead of "donate," how AWESOME would that be, except if you pray w/o clicking, does it even count?

GAAAAA! Ugh! You guys, all this deep thinking from being preggo is super weird. I bet JJWT thinks about this stuff all the time, no wonder his brain is so ginormous.

out w/ the old, in w/ ME!

Here're somethings about 2010 that make me super greatful:

• All my races! And eyelash extensions.
• Cleanses.
• Getting some ME time now that glamma and Queenie each take Alivyiah and Tridger two days a week, so I still have to be in charge on Wednesdays, which is hard but so worth it.
  
• Me and Angelbabe getting preggo again!! I just can't stop saying WE'RE PREGGO!!!
• W/ a boy!! So fun! Can't wait! Induction is scheduled so we can still hit Cabo for sinko de Mayo, yay! Also going natural again!
  
• Watching Ruth's baby weight linger...I don't neccessarily WANT her miserable, but, it helps, you know? lol ;)
  
• Vintage!
  
• My great-grandma died {bummer} but I was able to rescheduled my hair appt {yay!} Isn't that how life goes?
  
• BEST IDEA EVER: when after we became pre-employed, I finally got JJWT to agree to just pretend it didnt happen til 2011 and have a kickA christmas! What would of been a depressing holiday has instead been SOOO fun! I literally couldn't beLIEVE it when I opened up a teensy adorable box and inside was a key and AngelBabe was smiling all huge and there, in our extra garage, sat the NEW SUV I've been dying for! Literally! I just didn't know how we'd squeeze THREE kids into our old one that could technically fit 8, but what about carpools and trips to the Gateway? tender mercy! Also I got a new dinning set. And bedroom set. And finished up the new nursery. Oh and we're leaving for a cruise next week! We deserve it!
  

Wishes & goals for 2011:

• a bigger, nicer house with more KITCHEN space for MORE KITCHEN STUFF!
• a bigger, nicer calling! Prefrably both of us get a good one!
  
• More RACES!
• Get super tan!
• More anthro! And more handmade! And more trips! Also a boat!
  
• Start an inspiration blog, a design blog, a cooking slash receipe blog, and a photo blog.
  
• Simplify!
  
• going off diet coke again, for REALS this time.
  
• hopefully, a job.
  

Love you!

with luv: our family letter

Dear everyone,

This year was the best year ever! So greatful for you and your friendships!

Tiffany/Amber/Megan/Nicole is LOVING married life and has non-stop fun all the time being a stay-at-home-mommy. Everyone says TAMN is more hot every day. She was sad to graduate law/biz/med/dental school and not be part of a formal wive's club anymore but exited for the next step in this journey. This year she has ran four half~marathons, gotten certified in Zumba, and served faithfuly as MiaMaid advisor for most of the year before doing an amazing job as activities chair till she was dismantled of that calling a few months ago. She {hearts} vintage, photos of herself, blogging, blogging conferences, all things "design" and "social media"! She is also the tiniest darling preggo, everyone says she is teensy even though she feels ginormous.

Jordan/Jason/Wes/Taylor LOVED graduating law/biz/med/dental school this year and we are SO PROUD of how hard he works for our family!!! He wixed TAMN away on a suprise trip to Hawaii/Cabo/Caribbean {super fun} and took everyone to Lake Pal about a million times, and is super buff, and probably next up for a big deal calling ;)

Alivyiah TreCole and Tridger Kaegren who both turned 21 months! SO CRAZY that they were born 21 months ago and yet somehow they are 21 months old! Can you believe it?? They both graduated pre-preschool in the spring, total tear-jerker, Tridger is an all-boy stud and champ and Alivyiah is a total diva. They read and sign and are oober gifted and dress in etsy only, plus they are exited to be big brothers and sisters to they're new little bro due May 3rd! :)

Happy Holidays to you & your's!
The TAMN family

best. weekend. ever.

Not only did I found out there is a BOY BUN in my FETUS OVEN {!!!!!} but I got to go to all four preformances of David Archuleta and the Motab!!!!!!!! SQUEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

Jealous much?? :)

Going to see The DTD!!

Am going to the Dr.'s later today, super exited, but also super scarred! It's like, I'm 20 weeks and 3 day's along!! How embarasing to of been preggo forever and just now been finding out!! Who does that?? We'll look so poor :( My feelings are broken that some of you have been all, hey TAMN, we didn't see the pee stick, are you seriously even preggo! Even though your so right, it's not official til everyone sees a picture of something you urinated on, but JJWT think's its yucky and wouldn't let me post it, but don't worry its in the fetus's scrapbook!!! Plus if you saw me my baby bump is ginormous so pretty obvious I'm preggo.

Anyways TODAY WE ARE FINDING OUT THIS AFTERNOON TODAY!!! Alivyiah and Tridger are super pumped! Having both boy and girl already makes me alot more deeper and more blessed.
If its a boy:

• Fewer kids at home during father/son campouts so more time for girl stuff.
• He'll be such a little stud
• He'll open doors for me and stuff and honor my fragile
  
• I'll get to judge more daughter in laws
• Less threatening for me in staying JJWT's little girl, lol
  

If its a girl:

• MATCHIE MATCHIE MATCHIE!
• Tons of cuter name options and creativer spellings
  
• Wedding planning!!
  

Don't worry everyone, as soon as I know I'll text/tweet/facebook/blog it! I kind of want to know bc I'm a planer, but I also kind of want them not to be able to tell so that I can buy stuff for both, be prepared, right? And honestly, even though I want a boy, I seriously don't care, as long as it's healthy, and cute, and has hair, and is easy.
