Some fun pictures

Well, We did an art project. I decided to get the paint out, & it ended up in Mr. Man's Hair.


Here's a close-up of the paint job. :)


After we get cleaned up, we have a snack & sippy...


Laugh at Daddy's Silly faces....


And go to bed...nite nite little man....I love you.

Christmas village

Grandma got a little "Christmas town" figurine type thing that has fiber optic colors for the "lights" on the houses & a real fountain that works. Bub is so excited when Grandma gets home from work & lets the little man in her room to listen to the Christmas carols & watch the lights & fountain work.

Unfortunately, I am not talented enough to figure out how to adjust the flash timer on my digital camera so you can see it's in a dark room. I promise that the lights were off when I took this shot, but the flash is WAY too good at providing light.

Fall Fest day.

If only he would look at the camera....

This was a few wks ago at Cousin K's school's "Fall Fest". Mr. Man did not get the games.

Here's what happened on the big slide...


Child stampede. It took 10 min for cousin K to literally pull Bub up by his arms to get to the top. & then when she got him to the bottom, he just sat there & got pummeled by older kids. He thought it was funny....



We tried to get him to play the the "fishing well" game. He ran away with the fishing pole.

We tried to get him to play the "lollipop tree" (as you can tell from the last post, he loves his lollies). He tried to grab every lolly off the "tree".

We saw the duck pond game, but decided not to try it in case Bub thought is was bath time...

So we used the rest of our tickets on junk food...



I couldn't resist adding this last shot. Joe didn't realize the hat was on his head until we got home. :)

Yearly Pictures

So Today we did the yearly picture thing. bub was a squirmy man & after we did the requisite Momma, Daddy & Bub; Momma & Bub; Daddy & Bub; & Momma & Daddy; and Bub solo...Little man was boinging all over the little studio area & trying to pull down the backgrounds off the wall & anything else he could jump at. I tried to stop the whole thing @ that point, saying we have more than enough shots. However, we were told we had to do 2 more for the package we are getting. So I stuck a lolly in the bub's mouth, popped him up on the photostand for kids & told the photographer,
"Just take 2 shots...It won't matter if he is looking @ the camera or not. I'll be happy. I promise."
She looked at me kinda funny (I wish I had that picture to post) and did it. Afterwards she said she liked those two shots & told me it had been a good idea.

(personal lament moment)

WHY DON'T PEOPLE THINK I KNOW MY SON? WHY DO PEOPLE THINK I AM EXAGGERATING ABOUT HOW MUCH HE CAN HANDLE & THE AMOUNT OF ENERGY HE REQUIRES TO ACCOMPLISH CERTAIN THINGS LIKE SITTING STILL????


Ok, now that I have that out of my system I can continue on to happier things....

As for the Family Shots...you gotta wait on those. The disk I bought w/ the pictures has really ookie resolution & I either gotta spend some time fixing them up or just wait until I get the package photos in.

Well, ok...you twisted my arm...

Chalk drawing on sidewalk

Mr. man did this. Me & his Daddy are thinking it's a case of 1,000,000 monkeys w/ typewriters typing "Hamlet". I see a bird(swooping eagle) & his Daddy sees a winged horse. I really think it's a fluke because he has yet to do anything else like this...but none the less, this is pretty cool!
He's gonna be a little artist just like his Daddy. I gotta get the Bub a smock & berret! Heeheehee!

Glow Stick

On Monday Night I decided to see how MR. Man would like a glow stick. It was the funniest thing!
while we were waiting for Daddy to come home, we were sitting on the back porch & I made the stick glow & showed it to my Bub. The look of amazement! he just stared & stared & stared at it. He DIDN'T even TRY to put it in his mouth!!!
If I tried to take it away for even a moment, he cried. He even took it to bed with him...
