Random Things!

On Sawyer's actual birthday we had a little celebration with cupcakes and presents...well we lit the candle on the cupcake, started to sing, and he picked it up and tried to take a bite...with the candle still lit! I tried to get some photos of his eyelashes...I dont know if you can tell, but he burnt them a little, he also burned his face with the wax....my little tough guy did not cry, he just ate the cupcake!

Here is Sawyer helping his Daddy cook some eggs! He loves to help break them and than stir!

Other random things that have been going on...
*Work has been stressful, our office is going digital and paperless, which is a lot of work! Not only do you have to learn the new system but all the old info in patients charts have to be added...and it is just alot of work...
*Sawyer can almost to count 10, he can't seem to remember the #3!
*I have been completly obsessed with facebook, it is amazing the amount of people from my past that I have found! My most exciting find is Donald and Michael, they lived across the street from me growing up and everyday Kent and I was out there house playing!
*Sawyer finally has some underwear he can fit into, so let the potty training begin!
*Our taxes are done! YEAH!
*I still hate cold weather and everything that goes with it!

A Birthday Party!

Sunday we celebrated Sawyer turning two with all of our friends and family! We went with construction type them, lots of bull dozers and dump trucks! Just about everyone we invited was able to make it, so we had a full house!

I did not take very many photos, since there were so many people there..the only photos I have are the ones my friend Karen took for me! So there are no photos of the kids there...but I do have photos of the men drinking beer...oh well!

Happy Birthday Sawyer!

Today Sawyer turns two!
I just have to say that this last year has just rocked!
This little boy is so precious, and adorable, and loveable, and sweet, and fun, and happy, and perfect!
He just makes my life better!

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my rockstar little boy!

Forever!

That is how long it has been since I have blogged!

The only reason...or excuse...I have is that I am just lazy!

This has been a bad week for me though, I have sinus crap going on and have just not felt all that well! I am starting to feel better now though!

These photos are of a tray that I finally bought for Sawyer, that he just loves! He asks for one just about every time we go to Hobby Lobby and I always tell him no. Last time we were there he was being so good and so I told him if he could pick the one he wanted and tell me what color it was, I would buy it...and he did! We have been working on colors lately and he knows yellow (his favorite), pink (my favorite), green, red and purple (although he does call blue purple)!

For the last couple of months Sawyer has been sleeping in my bed with me, since he was having night terrors when he was in his own bed. Last week I rearranged his room and moved his bed to the opposite side of the room. We decided to try and have sleep in his own bed again. The first night he chose to sleep on the floor, but since than he has went to bed peacefully all by himself in his bed (with no night terrors)! I have no idea if moving the bed helped but it is the only change I made!

Sawyer's birthday is next week and his party is next weekend so I have been planning that! I had been planning on taking him to Rainforest Cafe on his actual day but since that closed, I am open to any suggestions for a fun lunch time place to go! (and I am not driving to TREX by myself)!

One more advancement in Sawyerworld! We are not just limited to Barney anymore! He now asks to watch Noddy and Calliou! He also likes the CARS movie and The Polar Express (the train as he calls it)! We still get Barney, which I am so okay with, I think he has learned alot from that purple dino, but it is nice that it is not ALL he wants to watch!

Outside Fun!

Alexander and Landon spent the day at my house yesterday, and since it was so nice out we went out to play! They spent most of the time racing, while Sawyer spent most of the time next to the "s sign"!

Meeting Baby Dakota!

Yesterday we met up with my friend Amy to catch up and meet her new little girl Dakota!

Her mom works in Martin City so we just met up there! The store is called Latin America something?, but there is a bead store (Beadz Galore) inside the store and it was awesome! They have so many beads, I am going to be taking some of there free jewelry classes to learn to make things with pretty beads I bought!

Sawyer of course, loved all over little Dakota, who is 7 weeks! He was a little confused when we got there because I told him we were going to see Amy and her baby, so he was thinking it would be his Aunt Amy and Baby Annabelle! Amy also has a 19 month old little boy, so next time we get together hopefully he (Tristan) can be there!

The Little Drummer Boy!

Sunday JuJu and Cassie came over and brought Sawyer more Christmas presents!

They gave him the cutest little wagon (that I will probably be stealing for a decoration) and a set of musical instruments! He got a drum (with sticks), a tamborine, a egg shaker thing, a bell thing, and something else that I havent the slightest clue as to what to call it, so it just a thing!

He loved it! His favorite thing is to use the sticks on the tamborine, that way he gets the drum sound with bells!

Our Christmas!

We started the day about 7am when Sawyer got to see what Santa brought him! His big present was a kitchen for his room, Mark had put it together the night before so it was just sitting there surrounded by his wrapped presents and stocking! He was so funny when he opened his presents because he stuck his tongue out!

After finishing up we all got ready and headed over to my mom's for our traditional christmas breakfast of cinnamon rolls! We waited for Kent, Amy and there kids to get there and than opened more presents! A little while later Kerry, Schaun and the girls got there and yep...we opened even more presents! It was so much fun watching all the kids open there gifts! They just get so excited!

We had a nice lunch that my mom made and some dessert, than headed home, we still had some celebrating to do with Mark's sister!

So Jennifer came over and we exchanged gifts with her, let Sawyer open the gifts from Mark and I, ate some dinner, and than spent the evening opening the toys from there boxes!

I would have to say it was a very merry christmas for us and we hope it was for you too!
