Happy 3rd Birthday My Baby Boy!

At 5:49 am, 3 years ago today, I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy.

And now, he's turned into the most amazing, most inquisitive, most stubborn, most determined little boy. He is smart, and fit, and funny, and he is a happy happy boy. I am so grateful.

We celebrated his birthday yesterday, even though it is actually today, by going bowling.

Ten frames seemed a little to much for his attention span, but he did enjoy it at the beginning. We had lots of friends and family there and fun was had by all.

Raleigh always enjoys playing with Adam, and he’s seen him on three different days this week!

After bowling, we went back to our place for ice cream cake and presents which I’ll post pictures of later this week.

Thanksgiving Day

Lots of great food from the host Erika and from everyone else who brought food. Seriously, we were all holding our bellies and wondering why we ate so much food afterwards. It was that delicious. In the picture below, my FIL laid down on the floor groaning after he filled his belly. And then Adam and Raleigh promptly jumped on him. And then Raleigh and Adam jumped on each other.

 

Gus did a great job cleaning up Leah after her meal.

Overall, we had a blast at  Erika and Joel’s place. Lots of food, lots of great people, and plenty to be thankful for.

MMM...Ham is done! Hopefully ham will heal Raleigh's bump on the head. Falling down the stairs prob not something he'll want to do again. <-Shyla>

A day of thanks

Here are two people I am most thankful for having in my life.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope that it is full of family, food, and fun!

Clean vs. Normal

This is clean.

 

This is normal.

Happy Birthday Big Bro!

My brother, David, turns 31 today, which means I turn 29 in a few weeks. Yikes! We’re getting so old :)

When I asked Raleigh to sign David’s birthday card he said, “No, I have letters for him.”  Turns out he wanted to give David these lego letters that he built.

Dance Party!

I’m not a huge fan of this song, but it sure gets the kids dancing!

Back up and running

The new hard drive arrived today and, while I was at work, Josh reinstalled Windows 7. When I got home, I installed all of the other applications that I need, including Windows Live Writer, which is what I use write and publish my blogger blog entries.

The picture above is to prove that I can dress Leah up nice and pretty like a little girl. The head band was a gift from my Aunt Pam, and the outfit was a gift from my coworker Leslie. 

The outfit is a 12 month outfit and it pretty much fits her already. Sigh…My little girl is almost 1.

Still no funtional computer. So, i am experimenting with mobile blogging. <-Shyla>
