Miss Prissy - thats all I should have to say...this little toot rolled her eyes at me a few times, which I found sooo-funny of course, but to her she was dead serious. And Connor, this little man is just getting so good at this whole picture takin' stuff. Smiled, played, laughed, and just had fun!

Asleep in Target...

While we were perusing the children's clothing isle is when I noticed him nodding off, poor little guy was beat, so I grabbed a couple blankets up ahead to catch his little head.
Was it so cute? Yes.
Were people saying, "awww"? Yes.
But the best part was that I had my little point and shoot with me to capture this "so cute" event.

Landon's Birthday Party

Saturday was the big man's party...whhewww, well, I was a wee bit stressed out, which Nana witnessed when she showed up with all the balloons, what a help! The boy didn't take not one nap all day, he was overly clingy and you all know what I mean. I am so surprised that I got the house in order as I did. Including the laundry room! Yea! Which was great because I look over during dinner to see my brother in law Dale and cousin Eddie eating in there. Just when you think you got a big enough house for anything...
Well stress or no stress the show must go on and so it did. I never know how the party thing goes, yes, for the first party of course I would invite the entire family. This is a time that I'm thankful that my family doesn't live close by because we would have to rent out a dance hall or something to accomodate everyone. I'm not sure if family recieves the invite and thinks, "another party?" or if they think, "another party!" <-with a smile on their face.

A relief to family reading this, Alli's 4th birthday will be held at the Young Chefs Academy and I am only inviting her friends to this one because of space, so you are off the hook! Except for Nana and Pop you might want to come!

uuugghhhh....
Well, I had to post this as soon as it came to me, if not, it would have been a simple blog forgotten about. So due to the quicktiality <--hey, don't act like you've never made up your own words before...hence no pic to go with it. Well, actually as this happened my thought was, "I am grabbing the camera taking a snap of this pathetic face". But the camera was in the car and I didn't dare leave this kid.
I suppose it doesn't take long to forget how things happened with your first child, like at what age they started to do this...or that...
I tell Ken all of the time that I left my mind in the delivery room...can I get an amen?
Seriously though, it seems as if Landon has hit this age where he is just all the time getting himself in to situations where there is a "bo bo" or it might be "boo boo" in your house.
Yesterday he fell off of Alli's bed, those of you who have seen her room know how high that is, to make things worse on his way down he hit the front of his face on the corner of her steps. I thank my wonderful maker that he allowed this to be a lesson learned for me with slight consequences. You see, when I ran back to Alli's room after hearing the "thunk", Landon was face down hardly breathing because it probably hurt my baby soooo bad, he lifted his head up to me and had a huge bump right between his eyes.
My lesson:
1. Watch my babies with more eyes then given to me.
2. Teach Alli that she is only to pick up brother when permission is given from an adult.
3. Never ever pull brother up onto your bed.
4. And of course to tell her it wasn't your fault.
What could have happened:
Well, I don't know, blindness, bleeding to the brain, not sure, I'm no doctor.
Anyway, that was yesterday, today, I pulled his little tikes bench into the doorway to give him breakfast so that he could watch cartoons as well, well the little dare devil stood up on the bench seat and fell forward onto the tile and smacked the left side of his face onto the tile.
These are going to be some kind of abusive looking birthday pics tomorrow.
My first thought was to give him a big dose of tylenol, poor thing, and you know they look at you like, "how could you have let this happen to me." It's the same look they give you right after 3-4 shots.
Pray for my kids saftey you guys! ;)

Alot of warming up took place after out little outside adventure in the freezing cold!

Landon couldn't figure out why I wouldn't let him put the wood in the fire place. He is such a big boy, he picked the log up and started putting it in towards the fire, like he watches his daddy do all of the time. And the photo below portrays a little boy scared when his mommy was yelling, "HOT! Landon NO!", poor thing looks so frightened. Hey, I know what your thinking...and yes I might have risked a little burnt finger for a cute picture. Oh, stop, I'm just kidding, I was right there! ;)



I love how the highlights turned out on the black and white set. Also the lighting was perfect on her face:
F/1.0 -stop
Exp. 1/140
F3.5
