look who's talkin'!

You HAVE TO watch all of these!
I couldn't choose just one, too much cuteness.
Just click play and turn up the volume!

Yes, yes.....dada is Natalie's 1st word!
I thik she was trying to say 'mama' instead.
Yeah, thats it! Poor thing just got mixed up!
This one cracks me up, because she's telling me NO!!

Monday mornin' pics

My sweet girl is getting so big!
I can't believe she'll be 6 months old soon!



Bobby has been wanting a 'mowhawk' for a while now, so i finally gave him one (although he had it down today)



I love this picture! Natalie loves her big sis!
My oldest, and youngest.



Finally, here's the invitation I created for Carson (minus all of our juicy info for the random people out there)

make a wish

Carson had a giant brownie cake!
(on his actual party he'll have all of his super mario decorations!)

F*I*V*E

My beautiful baby boy is 5 years old today!
I have a bazillion pictures of him, but chose f*i*v*e to share!
My all time favorite one, is right above!
Elephants (or eh-eh-ehnts) as he used to say, were his favorite animals when he was a baby.
He saw a real one for the first time that day!

His 1st time meeting Santa at the mall......he was barely 2 monts old and instead of the typical pose, Santa couldn't resist holding him up!

How adorable is this one, J, for James (his middle name)

Last halloween...baby batman.......im sure he wouldn't let me call him baby this year!

And last but not least.....his first introduction to boyhood!
*I'll be taking more pics as the day goes on, and I painted him a mario birthday shirt there's a pic on the arts and crafts blog *

Happy Birthday Mama (aka GaGa)!

We love you......

and miss you.......

and hope you had a great day!!!!

.......how many candles is it now?

this is what you get...

the following year, after you kick a smashed pumpkin off of your porch, into your garden!

his very 1st day

I truly cant believe this day has come so soon, or so it seems.
My baby boy went off to school this morning.
Granted, it's only pre-k 3 days a week, and only half days so he's home for lunch.
But still, school none the less.
Daddy dropped him off this morning, and Nattie and I will be picking him up shortly.
According to daddy, his was the largest in his class..lol.
Well, he will be 5, in 5 more days (he missed the cut off date for kindergarten by a week, so he doesn't start until he's almost 6) and he's in a class with mostly 4 year olds.
Okay or maybe he's just husky.
Either way, he's the cutest dang-on kid in the world, not that I'm partial or anything.
Thank goodness I have Natalie, or I would be a basket case right now, having all in school.
Whew.
