The nightmare (aka family pictures)

The night started out okay, until Little Man decided he had had enough. His lack of enthusiasm rubbed off on Peanut. She has a hard time smiling anyway. She has the cutest smile if you can catch her off guard. As soon as she sees the camera the smile turns into a half smirk, half cheese ball. She also has a hard time standing still. I know that she is only three, but she CANNOT hold still. She takes excellent blurry photos to say the least. Bugs did super, until we asked her to lay down on the bridge. She did not want to. After that she was all attitude. You might ask yourself, "Where are the photos of the bridge?" The answer the that would be that there aren't any. They did not work out at all. The kids had had enough by then. Thank you Holly for putting up with the craziness that is our family. ENJOY!

Happy Birthday Little Man!!!

I can't believe that my Little Man is 2. Where has the time gone? He is such a good little guy (most of the time). I am so glad that he joined our family. Little man is stubborn, but is very loving. He loves to give hugs and kisses, and is quick to say I'm sorry, which he does quite often. He talks non stop, and loves to sing songs. Look at how much he has grown. Little man is 6 weeks old in this picture.
And here he is this summer. How can you not love that smile!

On Sat. we were playing in Grandma and Grandpa's backyard. Little man disappeared for a short amount of time, and then came running as proud as he could be. He can't stay out of the dirt. He is definitely all boy!

Little Man is in love with tractors and trucks. For his cake I attempted a tractor. It didn't turn out exactly like I wanted but Little Man didn't seem to mind. I also made cupcakes, but hadn't planned what to top them with. I was very short on time so decided the they would be topped with "dirt" (aka crushed oreos).

Here is the front view. I cut the cake a little crooked, so don't look too close.

Friends are fabulous! Little man is laying his head on his new green football.

Here he is blowing out his candles.

Happy birthday my little guy we love you!!!!
