TOES!!

I know I said not every picture in this photo blog would be of Shane...but it seems he is the subject of choice these days!  When the weather breaks I'm hoping to get out and take some more pictures!  But for now, since Shane is just so stinkin cute, I can't help but snap some of the funny things he does...like sucking his toes!  He's been playing with his feet for a while now but after tubby time, he literally was SUCKING his big toe like he does his thumb! It seems he prefers his left thumb, but his right toe!  At least it was clean...

Sleepin Beans

I know...I've been slacking in my "daily" blog.  So maybe it's going to be a weekly blog?!  I'll do my best to keep up with it.
This is how our little guy sleeps.  Please note that he did start out flat and with socks on!  But after much rolling and squealing, this is how he always ends up to sleep! I love how his little butt is in the air and he's got himself all curled up.  I wonder if this is how he was in the womb?  By the way, isn't that the cutest little back of the head ya ever seen? :)

Hangin Out in the Swing

We almost put the swing away recently, but I'm glad we didn't...Shane FINALLY seems to be enjoying it!  When he was little, he wasn't really into it...but today I reintroduced it to him and he really seemed to enjoy it...thankfully!!  Always nice to have another option to keep our little busybody occupied :)

An Exciting Weekend Night

After we put Shane to bed we got all crazy and busted out the Yahtzee.  This was my winning roll!  And just for the record, Chris did roll a Yahtzee in the next round.  But I still won overall ;)

A Rare Occasion

Chillin like a villain!  This moment lasted about 3.5 seconds...but thankfully I captured it.  What a cute little monkey boy :)

Sometimes We Call Him "Crankenstein"

Poor kid...not only was he fussing, but then his mean ole mom took his picture!!  This is typically how he looks right before bed--he gets SOOOO tired!  Even cranky he's cute :)

More Time with Daddy

Our little guy loves spending time with Daddy when he comes home from work...and he loves to try to rip his eyes and hair out!  Hahaha.  He also tries to yank my hair out on a daily basis.  Let's just say I wear lots of ponytails these days! 

Testing Out the Bjorn

It's a bit out-of-focus, but here we all are!  We haven't used our Baby Bjorn (which we got used for FREE thanks to my former co-worker Karen Stauffer!) much since Shane was little but the need has very much presented itself now--especially for doing basic errands like grocery shopping.  So Daddy (and then Mommy) gave it a test run around the house and Shane LOVED it!  In fact he is still strapped to my chest as I enter this post!  He is busy watching my fingers scamper across the keyboard!    Looks like the Bjorn may be the answer we've been looking for...at least for now! :)

2 for the Price of 1

These were taken yesterday (3/13/11) during our visit with Mee-Maw and Pee-Paw.  The second is their dog Mona waiting oh so patiently to go outside!

Beaner and Daddy

This is officially the post for yesterday (3/11/11) since the picture was taken then :)

Baseball Hat

It's our little Beaner's first time wearing a baseball hat--his head finally fits it!  He didn't even seem to notice it was there.  What a cutie!! :)

New Skillet :)

Yeah, it's the little things...we got a 2 pack of Kitchenaid non-stick skillets on sale at JCPenney and I'm loving them!!  This one was cooking up some spaghetti sauce and meatballs!  Yum :)

p.s. I am aware I missed yesterday...I guess it's bound to happen...but I'll do my best to keep up!

Gifts from Ethiopia

My step-mom Melissa recently traveled to Ethiopia and brought us back these fun things from the market--a Zebra for Shane, T-shirt for Chris, and a cute little hand-painted wooden bird for me :)

Na-Na Time!

Na-Na loves her Beaner!

Consignment Sale Finds

Hitting up this consignment sale this morning made me SO anxious for yard sale season!!

LAUNCH DAY!!

Today is my birthday!! And that means that My 365 is about to start! I will be posting mostly in the evenings so I can take the day to capture a fun image. I have one pic that I already took today that I will post...but since it's my birthday there may be more than one picture for today! Never know what may happen!
But here is the first "official" My 365 pic:
I'll call this one "Wiggle Worm"--simply because my kid is so wiggly it is darn near IMPOSSIBLE to keep a pair of socks on him!! This was taken 10 minutes after I got him dressed and about 30 seconds after he started jumping in his jumper :)
More to come...
