I don't think we are in Kansas anymore...a big storm came through today. It was very quick but did a lot of damage to homes and cars. We are very lucky to be safe and just had to pick up our garbage cans. It was funny to see the neighbors trampoline in the pond though.

Oh happy birthday to me! Loved waking up to these pretties on the kitchen table.

Perfect day at the Park!

This is a very raw and unedited cell phone picture. But one of my new favorites. Out to dinner on a Friday night has changed very much over the past year.

Dinners with our friends are now more exciting with a toddler that wants to get down and run and spilled half of the container of puffs all over the restaurant floor.

All smiles though for my very blessed family.

Just a little treat to start off my birthday weekend early.

Sleepy P

It's amazing to me how much time a few plastic cups can buy you when

you are trying to cook in the kitchen with a 14 month old.

P loves to eat but especially breakfast food. Just like his Mama!

While checking out at TJMaxx I almost bought this for myself as a little early birthday gift but decided I'd make it a special request from my little P.

Watching a basketball game. Seriously, this is the life with boys.

I made this crafty little diaper wreath today for a baby shower that I'm going to tomorrow.

I love gifts like this because they are so useful and fun to make.

Strawberry, mango and pineapple smoothie makes my day.

Guess who has figured out how to crawl onto the bed all. by. himself.???!!!???

Sunshine in February makes me happy. And playing in the rocks makes P happy.

Happy Valentine's Day to our sweet P!

I just keep reminding myself we are not even in the "terrible 2's" yet.

A date night with my super SWEET husband was the perfect early Valentine's surprise!

If you are ready for the weekend then lay in the floor and pitch a fit!

P's favorite things right now: sitting in a basket, reading a book and having his puppy by his side.

Little P has some mad b-ball skills!

We've been teaching him to slam dunk.

Ya know, we're counting on our kid for retirement. Haha!

Cupcakes make any day better! But chatting and laughing with girlfriends while eating sweet treats make any day 10 times better!

Once upon a time there was a little boy who loved to read a good book.

He would beg his Mommy to read to him all day by throwing books all over the floor.

And she of course would, always giving in and kissing all over his

sweet cheeks every time he turned the page.

Our good friends came over to watch the Superbowl with us and Parker had a blast playing with his Auntie Em. He loves her and thinks she is so much fun. I mean who else would crawl through his tunnel 87 times in one night.

Poor Oscar doesn't stand a chance with Parker all over him!

Happy Friday!
