Project 52: At Play

This picture is dark but I love it! I feel like it shows how much he loves to play. He will always come find me when I'm doing something else and say "Mommy, do you want to play ____ with me?" (fill in the blank with horsies/trains/dinosaurs, etc) Or he'll say "Let's play!" and bring me a toy or grab my finger to take me to the toys. What a sweet boy. I love that he wants me to play with him.

Project 52: Growing Up

My little boy is all little boy and not baby at all anymore. It makes me sad that he has to grow up so fast! I think it is cute how he takes his own shoes off now. He uses one foot to step on the back of the other shoe and then does it again and they always end up in this sort of position when he is done. I had to take a picture of it to remember this little moment of cuteness that I love observing. :)

Favorite Place

I love that this sweet little boy loves to cuddle with us still. This is my favorite place for him to be--only with me instead of with daddy, but I can't really take a picture of us like that. When he snuggles with me like this we are reading books and I love it! Maybe I should try to keep the camera close by so I could snap a picture somehow. :)

I'm taking part of this awesome project 52! If you want to join or see other great pictures, take a look here!

Rice Drawing

In an attempt to teach letters and numbers, we were tracing them in the rice with his finger. I was surprised how much fun he had! But once I stopped helping him trace, all he wanted to do was pick up the rice and drop it. Ha!

Business Casual

Everytime I put this vest on him, he says "I'm cute!" Maybe you can guess that this used to be one of my favorite outfits for him to wear--he's almost too big to wear it now. This day he also insisted on wearing this tie. You can also see his awesome bedhead. :)

Copy Cat

This little boy loves to copy. It's so funny to me the things he will choose to copy that we do. Like when you rub your eye, or cough. I have no idea why my husband did this, except that he has a picture of him like this from when he was little--but of course, he had a little copy cat and I took this picture. :)

Happy Valentine's Day!

We sure had fun making sugar cookies this past week--and we ate the last two this morning. Perfect timing. My little honey sure had fun making the frosting--and then of course frosting his own cookie. He would frost some, take a bite, frost some more, take another bite, etc. Anytime he thinks I am making anything, he asks to sit on the counter or says "I want to help you!" I sure do love this boy!

Football Player

I am so grateful to be the mommy of this darling boy.
This week I couldn't decide which picture I loved the best, so I am sharing three.


I love this one because is always asking me to be an elephant with him--and this is how you walk like an elephant.


I love this "tough guy" look he has on his face. :) He is wearing his football jacket and football hat.


Here is a better look at his football helmet/hat.

The other side of Sweet

This darling boy of mine has recently shown another side of himself previously unknown to me. He loves to pretend to be tigers (in particular Shere Kahn from The Jungle Book) and dragons and his tiger/dragon/anything scary or mean growl has become something quite fearsome! Here heis caught in the act (I asked him to growl) with his dragon cave box in the background.
