Mommy's Birthday

Yay for my birthday :)

And yay for my new camera :)

It has been a long time since I have been able to take any pictures, besides the ones I take on my phone. A phone is not really conducive to great pictures of a two year old, however, so I have been hoping for a decent camera.

Thank you, my darling husband!

Peanut and Daddy

It's Been A While...

Since I have been over here. Life gets overwhelming sometimes, and one tends to shy away from the day versus restate it for everyone. Things have gotten better (not that they were ever bad, just busy), and we are ready to share our growing up again.
Peanut is all potty trained. It was much easier than expected and the last few months without diapers has been wonderful!
Peanut has also developed quite the personality. He is like a real live little man. He can hold a decent conversation with you, and he has the best manners. The best part of Peanut is that he is always happy and loves to laugh. It brings me such joy just to see him! But, of course, all Moms know the feeling :)
My camera is broken, but I will hopefully be getting a new one for my birthday so I can get back to posting with some fun pictures.
Until then...

Potty Training...

Is going very well!!! I am surprised it was so easy. It took a few weeks, but Peanut has not had any accidents this week, including sleeping through the night without wetting. I am so excited because I have been dreading toilet training basically since Peanut was born. One more milestone met, and my little tiny baby continues to grow.
Other than that, we have been busy working on the house, working at our jobs, etc. Always something to do!

Camping!

We just got back from our annual trip to the coast for a few fun-filled days of camping. Peanut had a great time and loved the ocean!

At Sierra college watching Daddy play softball. Peanut does not usually get to stay up so late. He is pretty stoked. I think he knows it's past his bedtime, yet he gets to play outside.

Just a quick note to say I have been busy and exhausted, but I will try to throw out a decent post soon, just to check in. Hopefully all is well with everyone!

I Cannot Even Name This Post

Seriously, if life got any more boring I would probably fall into a coma. I understand that one cannot have excitement every second, but give me a break. We have just been working on the house and working at our jobs and working at raising Peanut. Lots of work.

Peanut does manage to keep us entertained on a daily basis, and I am pretty sure he is the cutest thing ever in the whole world. He loves to talk, and the way he can put the craziest phrases together amazes me.

Yesterday Daddy brought home some clothes that another mommy was trying to get rid of. Nice; I am not one for charity, but I will take donations of toddler clothes any day. Anyway, there was a hat in the pile, and Daddy decided to take it outside to Peanut and put it on his head. Peanut has never liked hats, and I was pretty sure this was not going to work out, but hey, let Daddy have the benefit of the doubt.

I did not hear the exchange first hand, but a few moments later, Daddy came back into the house mumbling, "that's mean, son." I asked him what was mean. Apparently when Daddy offered Peanut the hat, Peanut declined it saying, "I do not need a hat, I have hair." There is nothing really mean in this particular statement, except that Daddy is very sensitive about his own hair. I could not help laughing.

Anyway, nothing going on; just living each day as it comes. It's all good.

My Blue House

Remember how my house used to be all disgusting? How it was yucky barn red and dirty? I remember. I remember that it was awful!




But not anymore! My house is blue! And bright and beautiful! And BLUE! My neighbor and my mother-in-law are not very fond of it, but I think it is fantastic.

So, what do you think?
