Because it's Wednesday...

My young-un's, on Easter

If we're friends on Facebook, you've likely seen these already, but I do have some others on my camera I need to import and share.  Where does time go when it comes to kids?  In my mind, Cooper is still 3 months old and then I wonder why his clothes don't fit.

He turned 8 months old on Monday.

Big boy!

Just hanging out, ya know... having some lunch.

Hunting eggs is serious business

Papa and all his grandsons

And here's a never before seen bonus

My blue-eyed baby

Happy Valentine's Day!

the Joy of Love - Day 4

I skipped day 3... I have an idea, I just need more time to execute.

 

04 what they wear

I love these sock monkey footie sleep 'n plays.  Old Navy out did themselves this fall...

Jump.



Already, my tiny baby is gone.  But just look at the JOY.



I Heart Faces | Winter Wonderland

Since I did resolve to take and share more photos, I guess participating in another I Heart Faces challenge counts as succeeding. 




We got a little bit of snow a week ago and finally Carter was old enough to check it out.  He was in AWE.

2010 in crappy cell phone pictures

I stole this idea from my dear friend Cristal.  Below is a review of 2010- some pretty amazing transformations happen in the year of a young child.

January

 

Hard to believe he was barely a year old one year ago.

Having Chik-Fil-A with mama at the mall.

February

Small Fry, for the first time.

And snow! Lots of it!

Look at those lashes!

 March

I got a haircut!

The line into Mud Nationals in Jacksonville (Tx).

We practiced sharing.

I went home to my two (blinking) light town.

April

Cool dude!

Hello?

It's a boy!

 May

He learned "uh-oh!" and had an adorable follow-up.

Haircuts have never been a priority.... neither have clothes.

Man, this truck is the epitome of east Texas.

June

The a/c broke at work.

Happy Birthday to me!

I'm pretty sure I was already "done".

 July

We adopted a stray kitten and fell in love.  He didn't last long and we were heartbroken.

The town where I work voted in alcohol sales.

Carter got bit (again & again) so we left daycare for loving home care.

August

I LOVE BLUEBERRY DONUTS!

Man, was I ever miserable. 

He found ways to curl around the belly.  Always my baby.

September

Sweet boy, your life will change forever tomorrow.

Cooper's here!

No. More.  BABY.

October

These two can nap like nobody's business.

C went hunting for a week in Colorado, so there was a lot of this.  Crying/sleeping babies all piled up with mama.  I needed a vacation after that week.

And then, on Halloween, we went to the World Series. 

 November

Carter got a haircut by a professional.  His first by someone other than me.  How handsome is he?!

On the day after Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Cooper and I made a flying trip to Dallas so I could have my rings inspected and cleaned as per the warranty.  I wish I could keep them that pretty.

 December

Cooper started grasping things and rolling.

My husband told me to go take a shower and I wondered why.

Christmas happened and there was one happy toddler in our house.

Happy 2010, bring it on, 2011.  Otherwise known as 

THE YEAR I WILL NOT BE PREGNANT!
