Happy Halloween!

This year I was determined to make Landon into a turtle, which is one of his favorite things. I finished the shell and that's about it, but it still worked out and he was a cute turtle. He loved trick-or-treating! He just said "treat" at the door and put his open hand out, and then sometimes waited as if he was supposed to receive something else; It was very cute and entertaining.

I think our second hasn't come yet because he really wanted to go trick-or-treating too!

THE AFTER PARTY!

And then, the lovely sugar highs...
His uncle Johnny's jock-strap... yeah, what a boy

Mommy Log 2: WHEN? WHEN?? When??

I can't belive I'm going to have a November baby. First due date was Oct. 16th, then it changed to the 28th. Now, we're into November and still no show. For about three weeks we've been thinking it was "tonight," then, suddenly it's "tomorrow" and everything has stopped. It's soooo different from Landon, who was a week early. But we are so thankful that it's soon; I might be induced on election day (tuesday), but we're hoping he comes before then. Emotionally draining but we're hanging in there.

The loves of my life

Both Alma and Landon are constantly making me laugh...They do the exact same faces and Landon admires his daddy so much. I love it.

Are you mocking me?

My Landon loves to put his blanket in his shirt and pretend to be prego too. We're all anxiously waiting for the arrival of our 2nd boy!

"Daddy and Me"

This was my favorite picture that I forgot to post. Sometimes there's no words

"Feeding the Squirrels"

Landon loves to collect acorns and he wanted to bring them inside yesterday, so we told him he could feed the squirrels by putting them under the tree so they could find them.

Mommy Logs

The other night, as we were going to sleep I started to tell Alma about all the funny things that Landon did during the day and he said, "have you been writing this stuff down?" I realized that all these little funny or even aweful things that happen on a daily basis will be lost memories if I don't write them down, so I'm making "mommy logs" and though most will be for our benefit of remembering our boy as he grows up, you are welcome to read them and share your mommy logs with me! So here goes!!

Mommy Log #1 - "The Cocoa Butter Incident"
As I woke up this morning, instead of the smell of a dirty diaper, I smelled the sweet scent of my cocoa butter. First thought, "UH OH." Landon comes walking to the edge of my bed looking as if he was going out to sun bathe at the beach or be in a body-building contest. I mean, this is not the regular cocoa butter lotion; this is the thick cream almost like puddy. So anyways, He is covered from head to toe and I just said, "oh Landon, did you use it all?" His eyes got really big and looking quite serious said, "Yeah; bye-bye, more." So I put him in the bath; all water beaded off of him and of course day 2 -his hair is still very Conditioned! I remember when I used to get so stressed out when he did things like that. Now, it's nothin! hahahaha Funny how that happens when you're a mom of a 2 year old!

Since I didn't get pictures of the cocoa butter, here's some othere things he's gotten into...



Nana's Lipstick and my mascara

He was excited when I told him he looked like a Cheetah

Sweet Summer time

So, this summer we've been out and about and haven't done any blogging. So it's catch up time. We've had a wonderful Summer and I almost hate to see it end, except we are really excited for the arrival of our new boy! It's getting closer and I don't know if I have any more room left for 2 more months of growing baby. We think he'll be a little early like Landon. I'm just staying really busy trying to get everything done that needs to be done before the baby comes! Isn't it crazy how the nesting thing takes over??? Alma is working hard and doing well. We miss him when he travels, which is often, but the hotel points make up for it a little bit. Anyways, here's some pictures of past trips, family, and friends. We need to take better pictures, I know.



Our last beach trip to Charleston, SC.

This time around Landon ate less sand and actually spent hours building drip castles with daddy. We had a blast!

On the flight to Arizona, as tired as Landon was, he couldn't resist putting stickers on his face.

Playing with daddy....pretending is now one of Landon's favorite things to do, which is sooooo fun.

Copying eachother's noises...did I mention Landon has a love for singing? I love to hear him sing to me..he sings about momma, daddy, turtles, and lately abc's and Jesus wants me for a sunbeam. Pretty much whatever he feels like singing.

A little cone of Chocolate icecream goes a long way!!!!

WE LOVE UNCLE JORDAN!

THE INFAMOUS MO-MO!! He mentions it just about every day... and his Papa is always happy to take him on a ride.

Me and my boy before naptime...his hair is gettting long and curly and I can't stand to cut it yet.
