Frontier Village...Beware.

We've been needing to get G-Man's photos taken to celebrate the big 2 1/2 year mark. A woman that I work with takes some beautiful photos. We decided to get the boy outside, let him run, do his thing & document the occasion. Poor Stormy. Little did she know what she was in for...

He would sit still for one shot, then he was off.

There was LOTS of running. Stop for one second, look at the camera

 and take off again.

Thank you Stormy, for capturing our curious,


rambunctious,

active,

inquisitive,

handsome,

strong-willed,

agile,

banged up,

bruised-up,

puppy-lovin' boy.

(Oh, my gosh is there ANYTHING cuter than a boy & a puppy?)

 (Oh, yes there is. Sorry)

Wait, I stand corrected. A boy & his Daddy...

are pretty cute too.

What is this RAIN you speak of?

Once upon a time,

there was this stuff...

called RAIN!

it was wet

and cool

and soooooo tempting.

But sometimes

you get

lucky enough

to have a

Cool Mom

like MINE

who just sits and watches you 

play in the rain.

Maybe someday, it will rain again...

Everybody needs a little Change... (A Mommy Blog)

I was baking the other morning. Grayson was playing at my feet in the kitchen and I really wasn't paying attention to what he was doing. I knew he'd grabbed a measuring cup and a baking pan & gone into the living room. Then I heard a noise....a noise I hadn't heard before.
I sneaked around the corned & saw this...

Oh MY! Is that?.....


why YES! It is our...

Change Bucket!


He had tried to dump the contents of the change bucket into the baking pan.
"I missed the Paaaaannnnn, Mama!"

Yes, you did, baby. Yes you did.
I was picking up nickels, dimes, pennies and quarters the rest of the day.

(BTW, he's naked because we are potty training & he goes to the potty if he's naked. Don't Judge!)
