Hours of Fun


Well, this is just a cute picture of how silly this baby Ben is. He LOVES toothbrushes. And when I say LOVE I mean...LOVE and cries over them when they are taken away. Obviously, it's not the safest toy so I do take them away on occasion. But truthfully, he loves them and it keeps him good. :) This is ONE BUSY ACTIVE RUNNING LITTLE BOY!

Caleb got this fun train for Christmas. We finally put it up and the kids have literally had hours and hours of fun scribbling and coloring. It's been a fun thing. It moves all around the house. You can see it's not a small thing either. So I'll be welcoming my kitchen back when the day comes, but until then we will all enjoy it. :)
 
 
 

He takes this very seriously. He told me "Mom, this is my work today!"

Behind the Camera...yup that's me.


I have loved this new idea. Thanks to a darling blog (71toes.com) brought this new idea to my attention. Read her post from yesterday. It's darling. I also LOVED the article she mentioned. Thankfully I have her link on my blog so I read it and thought about it....all day long. I also had friends mention it to me as well. So I thought it had to be a good idea to capture these precious fleeting moments.

Here is Caleb thinking it was SO silly for me to say I wanted to be in the picture with him.

Just showing his adorable little face. Some days he likes his hair in spikes and other days he likes it combed over...literally in a comb over. It's just priceless. If you look closely you can see his chunk of hair he chopped off the other day...he wondered if scissors would work on cutting hair like it does on paper...yup it does.

First day to showing my love for one of my kids. He just happened to be the one child awake and home with me. I love every ounce of being his mother. I ask him EVERY single day to NOT grow up. I think it's because my heart already knows he must grow and change. (Just as my other kids have) But for a few minutes I will always remember how much I LOVE being his mother when he was three. Really, I love this idea. Thanks to all my cute mom friends who have also posted their cute pictures on this new journey of showing US...Mothers loving this journey of motherhood. Love it! I just need to take more pictures in that CRAZY (4-7pm) hour of the day.
