Cupcakes and Commentary

We have been busy getting things prepped around here for Baby J. My parents took the mattresses out of the nursery for us, I am beginning to complete the process of decorating the room, and my husband has been busy getting things out of the attic (trying to muddle through my confusing labeling system…I really [...]

There is not much more that all the boys love than a birthday right now. A birthday means presents, cake, ice cream, balloons, and being able to get together and play! We had a great time celebrating my Dad’s birthday! First present opening…also titled “there’s something about Granna” because this time the boys were incredibly [...]

Today we began making Christmas cookies. As I was taking pictures of A making the cookies I flashed back to him making cookies when he was barely one, in a little dishtowel apron with only a stripe of hair and a little green dinosaur shirt. Flash forward to today: My baby is now a three [...]

Celebrating with a birthday bagel on his birthday day October 16th. I’ve been meaning to complete this for awhile, but kept getting sidetracked with other posts, so better late than never! A compilation of things that A is into, accomplished, and looking forward to at the sweet age of 3. A weighs in at 29.6 [...]

I wasn’t kidding when I said A really did not want to dress up for Halloween. Here is his first costume: I could hardly get him to keep the sticker on. So imagine how it was trying to get him into the next costume: He has the roar of the dinosaur down well. The only [...]

I cannot believe A is three! Despite having to go on a new round of antibiotics the night before his party, A’s birthday party turned out great, and we had a good time celebrating with the family! Up first, pin the eye on the monster… Then, presents…because A could NOT wait any longer. A’s shirt [...]

Ever since we went to the Auburn game, A has decided that he needs to put on “gear” when he plays football. Here is his outfit (selected totally by A): The knit cap is his helmet and he wears the gloves because “football players need to keep their hands clean”, he told me. Throwing the [...]

I cannot believe we are here already! I barely slept last night worrying that A was going to have a hard time going into preschool today. He did so great! He was only slightly upset that he couldn’t bring his toy story 3 lunch box directly in the classroom, but had to leave it in [...]

Just a few fun photos taken with my (and my sister’s) phones over the past two weeks! Some of these are a bit blurry…if only I had the iphone, HA! Super A doing Little J’s hair. Something about Super A’s face makes me think this could turn bad quickly. Super A’s “I’m sooo hungry” face, [...]

Through various circumstances, Super A got to spend quite a bit of time with his cousins this past week. I had to capture some of their moments, especially the ones where they were watching a show after nap time. Look at this love! Handy M quickly reserved his spot on the couch. Okay Granna, here’s [...]
