Pumpkin Patch:2010

Tweet



It's never an easy ordeal to get both the boys ready to go much less get them primped and ready for pictures. We did it though! Last year we took a family picture and I love to start our own little family traditions.

Last year Potato was not able to say Pumpkin but that is a different story this season. He was all to excited to tell us what each.and.every.one of those large orange things were. Quite adorable really! As I type he sits in my lap repeating over and over and reasuring me that those are Punkins' mommy!

I hope you enjoy our family photos as much as we do!

Supper Club- Ala Nicole!

Tweet

Wow I know this is incredibly late, but I did not want to lose this memory.

Saturday September 25 we had our monthly Supper Club meeting. If you remember that week had been crazy with Aiden (Gecko) being born and just that morning Cheyenne (Sweet Potato) was born.

It was Nicole's turn to cook and boy did she rock the house. She made....from.scratch....Chicken Alfredo! All I can say is that there was not a drop of sauce or one noodle left alive. DH is a serious Alfredo addict. Like I need to get him committed. So when he found out what his second wife(maid of honor at our wedding) made Alfredo for dinner I could not stop his drooling.

Everyone went back for seconds and somehow I was able to put a tiny bit in a little tupperware to take to my mom in the hospital. After dinner was over Nicole, Sammy, and I hurried out the door to go love on Cheyenne. Sadly Mishy was sick and was unable to attend. We made sure to kiss her double for her. While we were goo gooing over my niece the boys were at home geeking out over computer games.

The evening was quite incredible and one I could never forget!

Happy Birthday Nana!

Tweet

Today is a very special day. It's Nana's Birthday!

Our little family of three would like to wish her a very special day. She is traveling right now exploring the wild west but even when she is far she is very much close to our hearts. Potato is very much attached to his Nana and requires visiting rights often and when that is not possible we Skype.

DH and I owe her a lot and can't even start to thank her for all that she has done to make our lives wonderful. She took care of Clayton for the first 18months of his life so that I did not have to put him in day-care. I say this because this is the reason he is spoiled rotten ;-)!

Nana is an artist in every aspect of the word. She paints, does pottery, makes jewelry, and pretty much anything she touches she excels at.

You can't pick your family but I have been very lucky to have her as a mother-n-law and friend.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANA!

Happy Belated 23 Month Birthday Potato!

Tweet

Dear Potato,

I am such a bad Mommy. It was your 23 month birthday three days ago and I am just now getting this posted. I am sorry! In my defense we were all in Enon, La at your Auntie Peggy's and Uncle Greg's camp for the weekend. You had an incredible 23 month birthday!

You are becoming such a big boy and really taking on the terrible twos like it was your destiny. LOL. I wish I were kidding. I always said that I wouldn't be the parent with the child that threw themselves on the ground when something did not go their way. Wrong.I.Was. You really love to push your limits and it's more with me than with daddy. I guess you I don't make it too hard since I have a much softer approach than daddy. Even though he is more stern you seem to gravitate towards him in every aspect. I love watching the bond form between you and your daddy. He loves you so much and is very proud of you and you accomplishments.

I know now that Mr Pediatrician was not kidding when he said that your vocabulary would grow exponentially when you hit 18 months. I just still can't believe all of the things you have picked up over the past month.

You were not much of a bully at school this month but still have a few issues with keeping your hands to yourself. The teachers say that you are a really laid back child and that you do your own thing all day. When I come to pick you up in the afternoon you start talking when apparently they don't hear you all day. I guess that is a good thing and that is probably one of the reasons they adore you!

I am slowly/reluctantly preparing for your 2nd birthday party. It will be a big deal of course.....you are a big deal....to a TON of people. I can't giveaway all of my surprises just yet so you will have to read your two year post.

I am proud to say you are starting to form short sentences. "Where is Daddy?" is one you ask a lot if daddy is not in view. My favorite has to be when I passed gas and you looked at me in shock and told me "Mommy you Poo Pooed!" I died laughing!

We now have to take our ball play time outside because you have a pitchers arm and almost break Mommy's pretties! Okay so to make a list of the things you have done this month!

Words:

Eldafant - Elephant

Pweeze, Tantou, Wecome- you are a champ with these

Cawtoons- You love to watch cartoons even though I only let you watch the learning cartoons so far. I guess I am just not ready for Power Rangers, Ninja Turtles, and well Sponge Bob may never happen lol.

Color Words

We are working on:

Colors ABC's- you were actually trying to sing along this morning

Learning our animals. You think that if it swims in the water its a fish and if it lives on land and its not a dog, cat, or bird then it must bean elephant.

Tantrums--not having much luck here since you don't see me as much of a threat. You have also mastered rolling your eyes and well after I laugh(while not looking at you) I fuss and tell you that's not nice.

I know I am leaving out a lot but there is just way to much to remember.Daddy and I love you dearly and can't wait to celebrate completion of another year with our big boy! Love daddy and Mommy!
