Say cheese!

My little man got a haircut and I haven't had a second to document it. He is so cute and so much fun. 

He is also almost potty trained!!

I show Shelby

Mac is trying to teach Shelby new things everyday. Like how to use a pacifier. He then proceeded to put one in my mouth. 

Party time

We like to party during the day here at our new house. Which translates to watching tv while mom nurses and then takes a ton of pictures while Shelby is super smiley. 

She stops smiling when she sees the camera though. So I don't get much straight on shots of her. 

Best buddies

Last Friday grandpa great came to my rescue. He helped me with some errands that were short enough to want to leave my kids in the car, but long enough that I couldn't leave them alone. Hence, great (as Mac calls him) to the rescue. He rode along with me and say with the kids in the car. 

Then we went to Ryann's assembly and he helped so much with Mac. It was nice that he had a bag of candy corn to keep Mac happy, but both of them enjoyed it a lot. 

So really who lets their 2 year old eat a bag of candy corn?  This mom does if it means he will sit quietly with his great grandpa for 45 minutes!

Happy 2nd birthday Mac!

This little guy lights up our world. He is kind and loving and full of laughter. He likes to be silly but he isn't afraid to tell in your face if you are doing something he doesn't like. 

He loves eating and always tells us when he is hungry. He likes toast, sandwiches, milk, bacon, oatmeal, yogurt, pancakes with syrup, chocolate, chips, cookies and basically anything else he asks for. Some days I don't ask him what he wants and he has been known to let me know he wants something different.  So far he eats almost everything. 

He got a bike from my parents for his birthday!! He is in heaven. He loves everything with wheels, especially trains. We got the trains out from storage and he sits on the train table all day and plays with it. 

He got his car seat flipped around today like a big boy. Despite the face he was super excited to sit forward. 

According to the pediatrician he should be 6 feet tall at age 18. He is 85% for height and weight. He can recognize colors, shapes, and letters. He loves to sing ABCs, wheels on the bus, twinkle twinkle, and I am a child of God. He doesn't know his animal sounds but loves when we make the noises for him. He likes books about trains and he has finally branched out to watch movies other than thomas. He likes jake, Mickey, and chuggington. Every so often he will tolerate a show the girls are watching, but he would rather play with trains. 

Rough life

Both of these kiddos were grumpy pants today. I couldn't help but laugh because we were outside in the gorgeous weather  on a gorgeous lawn with snacks and everything in the world in front of them. 

Plus it was Friday. You can't cry on Fridays. 

Baby Mac's Room

My sweet cousin Mallory is a graphic designer. I love what she does and makes. I found some samples of cute monster prints on etsy and told her what I wanted and this is what she came up with!

 I love them and I printed them out last night and framed them. 

Now I just need Rich to hang them on the wall. I normally would do it, but the furniture is all in the way and my big ole belly won't let me reach that far. 

After that is done I have to do it get his bedding together and we will be set.

 The countdown has started.

About 5 weeks to go!
