"Happy Mama Day"

This is from last night, after a busy birthday party day... He was dragging the balloons up the stairs and I grabbed the camera because it was such an "after the party" kind of pic, he looked back down the stairs at me and said "Oh Mama, too cute" Heh, think he had enough pics taken of him??

This morning, after a luxurious sleep-in, I was greeted by my little Mother's Day elves... The card plays the Peanuts theme song, which is a favorite around these parts, so we danced to the singing card all day.


Justin and Brennan went shopping for my plant, and after selecting the plant Brennan walked up to the ladies at the shop and said "for Mama"--Justin said it was as cute a moment as it could be! Here are my guys and the flowers with the butterfly... Oh, and a chorus of "Happy Mama Day" as well!



Hard to imagine that two Mother's Days ago this little guy came into the world and turned ours upside down and sideways in the most wonderful way possible. I feel like the luckiest person in the world and only hope that his little brother feels all the love that this little family has to offer when he joins us (officially!!) this summer.

2nd Birthday Party!!

We had a few of Brennan's friends and family over for a little birthday celebration...

The birthday boy and friends in action--he was a very gracious and appreciative birthday boy--made us very proud of the little boy that he is!



Time for the candles--banana cake with "choc-ey" frosting...

Kitchen Musician

Here's my little kitchen musician! He loves to "cook" with me--playing with his stuff on the floor as I am working away...

Daddy's Little Boy

Let me summarize our dinner conversation tonight:
"more play kins" (play with kids)
"more talk" (about his day with the kids at My Gym)
"gym"
"stretching Daddy" (sharing his stretches from his gym)
grabs my dinner napkin to thoroughly clean up a spill on his tray

Justin is SOOO proud!!

Here's the Guy!

Here he is wearing his Gran's tennis shoes:

and sweeping... Yes! That is a duck that you see just feet away from Brennan. He loves the quack-quacks!

Visit with Bubbie...

Okay, so we've been a little busy (more on that later!)

But here we are again...

Brennan is 22.5 months old!! and we are in LA visiting my family and

Happy Valentine's Day!
