FFF ~~Just one picture~~

Here is my FFF photo for this week!! We took J to Disneyland for his 3rd birthday on Monday! We all had a really wonderful day. This is my favorite picture from the trip.

Super J

Little J's birthday is just six days away! I can't get over that he'll be THREE in less than a week! So some birthday surprises have started to arrive in our mail box. This is from Auntie Sasha, who knows how every little boy needs a super hero cape!! He loves this, thanks so much!! He wore it nonstop yesterday.

Before bed we talk about why little Super J could not and should not fly down stairs.



He listens, and I tell him how he can fly from his train table, or our couch, but not from the steps.


Oh wait, he has an idea!!



Daddy can fly him!!!!




We are seriously having so much fun with our little super hero!

Mother's Day Pictures

Little Jay painted this flower pot for my MIL for mother's day. He was so proud of it. He picked out the flower too, an orange Poppy. We've been talking a lot about the different states, so I thought it was really awesome how he picked out our state flower!



I adore this hat. X wasn't sure it was worth $12 bucks, but I am sure it is!


He LOVES this car. He has one that stays in our living room too. I asked him to get out of the car to take a mother's day photo with me, he did, but he wasn't happy about it. I wont be sharing those images, as they weren't pretty. When I picked him up to pose with me he told me that he hated me. He loves using the word "hate" lately. He "hates my music it makes him sick", he "hates noodles", he "hates the new broken house", and the list goes on and on...

I adore him even when he's in his hateful moods!

Another give away this time for Mom!

Here is another give away. This time for Mom's! I actually won something from the toy give away, so it is worth a try!! This one ends today too! I keep finding out about these at the last minute! YOu have until 9pm!! Enter!!!




Wow I had a hard time getting that to link, thankfully it is nap time here.

And here is my all time favorite mothering picture and my FFF for this week. It was taken on our last day in Guatemala, when we were finally finished with our Embassy appointments, and we were getting ready to go home with our new little son! I don't really know what it is about this photo, but it is still my favorite one. Looking through all my picture albums reminded me that I MUST take more pictures of me and little J together. I am usually the one taking the pictures! I still kiss his cheeks just like that too.:)

FFF

J is crazy about lollipops. Yesterday, he got his haircut and was given one of his favorite treats. I put it away for him to have after lunch, but then I could not find it! I looked every where, and I am still not sure where it went.


But luckily today, while visiting Daddy at the office, Aunt C had a lollipop waiting for him!



He even waited until after lunch to eat it! But he didn't let it out of his sight.

Wow, I've really neglected this blog lately. April has been such a crazy month for us. We got the idea in March to start looking for a house to buy. We lost out on a few along the way, but we finally have found the one for us, and are very excited about it. It hasn't been smooth sailing so far, and we've run into a few issues, but nothing that can't be dealt with. The house is a bit of a fixer upper, but luckily most of the issues are easy to fix. We are supposed to close on May 12, a day before my birthday.

Jay isn't thrilled about moving. But he seems to be warming up to the idea at least a little now. Here is a picture of him from this past weekend. We have been cleaning out our garage and starting to move some of our boxes of junk into a storage unit. Jay isn't thrilled about that storage space either. He must have asked me at least 20 times today, when we were going to the box store to get his red bed, and blocks.

We recently bought him a lofted slide bed (red bed), for his room in the new house. Right now the slide is hooked on to his train table, because he had to try it out once he saw it. He isn't smiling in this picture, but believe me he is having a blast with it.


Maybe this bed will help him sleep in his own room. Hahaha, unlikely but it's worth a try anyway.

A few Easter pictures

Okay, this entry is back dated, but it is finally posted.

We had a really nice Easter this year. J loved the egg hunt we made for him. He loved finding all the clues, with pictures drawn inside, so he could figure out where the next place would be. We stayed up so late drawing pictures and hiding eggs.

Isn't that one mean drawing of a cozy coupe?? He never got stumped up on any of the pictures, and believe me, they weren't all this good.

And here are a few pictures from just before we left to visit family.
