Yes, it's been FOREVER, but I've been busy. I can't promise how much more I'll keep it updated, but I'll try! I don't even know if anyone looks at this!! haha

Helping Momma make brownies for 4th of July!

A rare family photo!! Not the greatest either!

One of my favorites. This is bubba in his own world, copying a dog! LOL

This is bubba in his own world, seeing daddy plug his nose in the pool..."copying" him. See a pattern?

I LOVE this picture!! Just wish he was lookin'!

Hey it's a dream of mine to be a photographer...I think this looks pretty professional!

can you tell he was sick??

I love moments like this!

2008-02-18T21:26:00.000-08:00

Happy Valentines Day!

2008-02-18T21:23:00.001-08:00

So I'm dumb and forgot to have him wear his valentine's day shirt...oh well

This is what he does when I say, "bye bye!" He'll hit the door and look at me like, "hello! C'mon!"

This is what he did while I made dinner....

Still sick.....

2008-02-18T21:21:00.001-08:00

We left him alone for about 2 minutes in my mom's kitchen and he emptied out 2 drawers!

Carrying around his "sick bowl"

My sick baby!

2008-02-18T21:09:00.002-08:00

Sick and still throwing laundry all over!

Fell asleep on me! This NEVER happens!

January 2008

2008-02-18T20:50:00.000-08:00

So I really can't commit to this "everyday" thing...so we'll see if I can keep you updated monthly. I'd love to go back at the end of the year and see how it was. So I'll post the date, but it won't be daily!
I LOVE THIS PICTURE....Had to have one on here of Maddox for January! He came January 11th, 2008 at 1:19pm!

So HE throws the laundry everywhere but he is the one crying?!?! Does that make sense!

Brayden.....Last day of January 2008 :o)

So.....apparently I can only take pictures of kids and fruit. lol I am TRYING to branch out and find things to take pictures of but since money is so tight I can't go anywhere and I'm not doing much. My life is strictly mommy and house wife right now! lol

After dinner, and cleaning up, and dishes...Chris took Brayden off for a bath and I cut up cantaloupe and kiwi. I do this atleast once aweek for a few days of different fruit for Brayden.

I thought this was pretty cute and refreshing up close. Lovin the colors!

So this picture probably made you make a funny face. That's me on the left on my 9th birthday (1995). The sign actually says "Happy Birthday Stephanie." I had to find this picture b/c this girl in the picture with me is named Missy (now goes by Melissa) and I found her on myspace and she doesn't remember me! I was so hurt b/c she was my best friend. We went to the same school and lived in the same neighborhood! How do you not remember?? So after I post this, I will be sending it to her to see if she remembers. It seems like that ALWAYS happens to me...I will be like, "Oh my gosh so-n-so!!! Remember me??" and I get that weird look and response. Makes me feel oh-so special. Yeah, poor me huh? :o)

K, I think I made up for no pic on the 5th! lol

My niece turned one today!! I was in charge of taking all the pictures, as usual so these are the only pictures I have for this day. January is turning out to be a busy month already!! Her baby brother, Maddox will be here anyday!! Sweet baby girl!!

YAY!! Not another picture of Brayden! ha I had to take a picture of this banana because when I brought it out for Brayden to have with breakfast he started dancing in his highchair and I said, "can you say 'banana'?" and he said, "ughhhh nana!!!"
My mom is his Nana, so I know he knows how to say it, and he may not know he said "banana," but the fact that I asked him to say it, and he did made me pretty excited!!
As you can see, he didn't finish it. Here it is, after he ate some more for lunch!

This may not be a very interesting picture to most, but Chris & I JUST love when he falls asleep like this. You ask, "like what?" Well if you notice, he is actually under his blankets. This means, when we laid him down and tucked him in, all he did was roll over! Most times, he's on they other side of the crib, on his belly with his butt in the air. I just think it's so precious that he's just so tired, he couldn't move! :o)

This kind of explains my day....hanging out w/Brayden all day and him amazing me by getting smarter & smarter. This book helped him learn how to say "dog." The fur on each animal helps relate to which animal is on each page. At least I assume so... :o)
