FFF with Valentine's Day Pictures

My favorite photo's this week are from Valentine's day. J was crazy excited about V-day this year.


I really wanted to get him one of the Mom themed Valentine day shirts, but once he saw this shirt he had to have it. He is crazy about construction vehicles, and dirt.

Here he is puckering up, he has been in a great mood all week. We've been able to do many projects together. He made personal valentine's for all of his grandparents, but sadly we got them in the mail late, so no one has received them yet.

We picked him up a chocolate lollipop at the grocery store on Saturday, and he had to wait all week to eat it. It was his favorite topic to continue bringing up about fifty times a day. "O Idea Mama", "What is your idea J" "CHOCOLATE LOLLIPOP!!!" I was a mean mommy and made him wait until after dinner to finally have it.


I have a few more pictures from yesterday I am going to try to blog later, but for now the dishes are calling me!

Bathtime fun

Bathtime is always a big hit around here. It always has been one of J's favorite times of the day. For Christmas Jadon got this crayola bath set, that came with bath tints to make the water different colors, which is how the water got such a lovely purple hue in these pictures. He is not really crazy about the bubble maker, it's a little hard to use, but he love the tints.


We went to the Learning Express to get a gift for a friend's baby, and they had a bunch of toys 30% off. We got him this little shaving kit for $5. It has a little mirror too, which he just loves to check himself out with. He's a very serious shaver. He thinks it is so cool to have his own razor. He must think it's pretty cool to spray the shaving cream too, because the other day I found it all over his comforter, and several of his toys.

Seven Strange Things About Myself

I was tagged by Janet

1. I love watching thunder and lightening storms. We had some beautiful ones in FL, but I haven't seen any here yet.

2. I've been married all of my 20's, and couldn't even legally sip wine at my own wedding.

3. I like walking through old cemeteries.

4. I love to read, we have books scattered all over our house. I'll read just about anything.

5. I even read celebrity gossip online. (I'm pretty embarressed to admit that haha)

6. I've sent a secret to Post secret Post Secret

7. I am not very organized, and when trying to accomplish things I normally need to make a list. I sometimes even make schedules for our days, even though we usually don't do anything very exciting and we never stay on task anyway.

I Tag, Sasha, Chelly, and hopefully I can think of a few other people who have yet to be tagged, but right now I can't think of anyone.

FFF ~messy face~

I had to really look around to find a messy faced picture for this week's FFF. I can't believe how *little* he looks here. He's still does that closed eyed crazy smiling thing.

FFF

My Friday Favorite for this week, was taken on X's 31st birthday, which was Monday! We had already celebrated his birthday with his family, but I decided to make his favorite dinner, and bake him a cake for his actual birthday. J and I had a lot of fun baking that cake. It didn't turn out exactly how I'd hoped, but it was still good. J has been talking non stop about birthday's now. He sure thought it was a lot of fun trying to blow up balloons. The month of January seemed to just fly by here!

our new pet!

X really wanted to get J a fish for Christmas. I was less than excited about the idea. In my mind all I could think about is how it would be another thing to clean. We had decided to wait until J's third birthday to get him a fish, but when we went to the Petco all of the Elmo Fish Tank line was on sale. We decided to use some of J's Christmas money for the fish tank and fish! Having this little fish has been so much fun. With much coaxing J decided to name him Fish Azul Cabo. We have had a great time watching him swim around in his tank, it is so peaceful. Taking care of him has been a piece of cake, even the cleanings are really easy. I'm very crazy about our new pet!






It took us a long time to get the cookie monster bubbler to work, but X was finally able to figure out a way to get it to have a stream of slow bubbles. J had been terrific about only putting fish food into the tank until this week. But that is a story for another time!

J is crazy about this helicopter shirt. He wants to wear it all the time.

My FFF

I've been slowly making my way through all of the pictures I took over the holidays. This picture was taken while we were visiting my family in NY for Christmas. Something about him all curled up in Xian's lap just kills me. He stayed asleep like that for hours while we were playing the wii.
