Update...long past due

I feel like every time we go somewhere fun and do fun things I forget my camera, or I am having so much fun that I forget to take pictures...so here are some random pics that I managed to snap!Z has been going through a sun glasses phase lately and wants to wear them everywhere! Here he is sporting them in the tub!
"Swimming!!"
Enjoying the Western Idaho Fair for a few minutes before he decided he was over it!

He seriously slapped that cow on the but...I was so freaked out that he was going to get a hoof in the face!!Falling asleep in the car after our brief trip to the fair!

Happy Fourth...we are exhausted!

After a long weekend with family, food, fun, fireworks, late nights, sprinklers, trampolines, and much more, we all tuckered out by 7 on Monday night. I woke up and this is the dreamy vision I saw on my couch!


This is the best "cheese" I can get these days! This kid is such a ham!

Mothers Day

Mothers Day has been a source of contention in our home ever since I became a mother. Mitch is an amazing husband and father in so many ways. One area he lacks in is special occasions. He is slowly learning, by force, how to treat a lady on her special day. He has ROYALLY dropped the ball on Mothers Day in the past, but this year, he really pulled it out! He bought me an amazing little video camera, and got me the sweetest card. We spent the day with his parents and brothers, and all around had a great time! I am so excited to start making little videos of my hilarious adorable son!

Speaking of which, here are the pictures we mad a collage out of for our moms. One of my favorite things Z is doing right now is saying I LUB YOUUUUUUU...with the hand motions of course. He first points to his cheek and says IIIII....then folds his arms and says luuuub, then with a very vigorous point yells, YOUUUUUU! I love that he made up his own gestures and I love that he says lub, and I love how excited he gets, so I had to document it and we got the cutest gifts out of it!



Oh, and here he is modeling the tie I made for him. I know it doesn't match, but we just had to show it off! So cute!


This little boy is so special to me( I know all moms feel that way!). He made me a mommy, and on days like mothers day especially, I can't help but be emotional. I am so in love with him, he makes me smile and laugh so hard every single day. Even when he is driving me nuts, I can't help but kiss that cute little face. Sometimes I just want to wake him up and kiss him. He is my little miracle, and I can't even begin to imagine my life without him. He is developing this wonderful personality, he has always been funny. I used to tell people all the time, I know this sounds crazy, but my baby knows when things are funny??? I could talk about all of the things I love about him for hours, but I won't bore you! Just know that I love being a mom, more than anything. I love the purpose, and hope, and joy it brings to my life.

I hope you all had a wonderful mothers day!!

Spring!!! And a new camera!!




Man, it has been so long since we had our camera, I have missed out on birthdays, and Easter, and general day to day cuteness!! So, today, I took the new camera for a spin, and the fam played outside with our sweet neighbor girls and I got a few pics!
The dogs were both tuckered out after our neighbors threw the ball for them...Roxie crashed on the floor...and...Axle...well...see for yourself!!!

This is one happy happy happy doggy!!!!





Zander was NOT happy about me taking his picture! He is so funny...he thinks that playing outside means playing with no clothes on since last summer he mostly played nakies!! I think it is funny that he remembered it!!
Here he is trying to give me a cheese...but he is not happy about it!!

And the final attempt...this picture makes me laugh. Mitch and I were joking that it was the first sort of warmish day and he is naked and dirty in like 5 mins flat...It was like Lord of the Flies in my backyard!
So, my hair was red for about 6 weeks, I just couldn't adjust...so...
Here is the progress...3 bleach applications, and a lot of toner, and a LOT of conditioner, and this is what we have!!
