STRIKE A POSE...

At our visit to Picture People a couple of weeks ago, our little man got his photos taken along with sissy.  He did much better than I expected; he sat where the photographer put him (amazing for a two year old, if this mama may say so herself :0) and even smiled for several of the pictures.  This one below, I absolutely loved.  The photographer was trying to get him to smile and Tom stood behind her and told Brandon to, "strike a pose"... this is what we got :0)  I adore this photo because it shows my little man in all his sweet, sweet, spunky, full-of-attitude glory.

Crazy, in-love, with this little man...

COLD...BUT SUNNY...

Yesterday was chilly (low to mid 50's), but it was sunny...so out we went!  They did have their hats on, but I took them off for pictures :0)  

This year has been a bit tough, as we've been trying our best to avoid any sick bugs.  Last year was so, so rough on us...that we've sworn off any indoor playgrounds (jumpy houses, Chick-fil-A play areas, etc) and any indoor play dates/parties...simply in an attempt to stay away from the big, bad germs.  It's extreme and tough as it can be isolating, but after going through 3 months of sickness with our family last year...we're willing to try just about anything! 

So, here's praying for more sunny (and hopefully a bit warmer) weather!

ABC...123...

Our little man has known his abc's and 123's for a few months now...but yesterday, I finally thought to take a video :0)  I love, love, love his sweet baby voice!  In case it's hard to hear, he knows a-z, 1-10 (counting he goes up to 15 most days) and on shapes, he can tell you a circle, square, rectangle, triangle, heart, diamond, star and crescent (aka "moon").  He's one smart little man! :0)
