♥ Cool Tricks, Cool Tricks! ♥

YEAH!!!!

Actually, this is really nothing new, cool yes, they’ve been doing this for a long time now but the other day on “Yo Gabba Gabba”, the cool trick of the day was the little boy with the spoon on his nose, well my chitlens just had to do it too and begged me to take pictures for them so they could see what they looked like, so I did, they saw, blew up into a fit of giggles and then ran off! lol!

♥ Macro Monday ♥

(Posting this early since I am headed out of town tomorrow until Wednesday!)

So, I have this small tree out back that is blooming again this Summer and I decided that today would be the day that I would take a few macro shots of these flowers that are on it (since for the past few years I thought the thing was dead!). Well while I was shooting my Son came up to me and said with a huge grin on his face, “Hey Mommy, why don’t we put some sprinkles on it?!” and then he proceeded to put the grass shavings, from when the Hubster mowed the other day, all over it! I couldn’t help but snap a few pictures of his sprinkled creation all the while smiling behind the lens at how crafty and full of imagination he is these days! Well, Dustin was soo stinkin’ proud of himself that he ran off yelling at every one who would listen “I helped Mommy take a GREAT PEEKTURE, Yep ME, I did!!!!” So today’s “peekture” is for my Son, who has a great imagination and who “helped” me take a Great picture!! AND I must admit the Sprinkles really make the shot!! <3

A song my Hubster dedicated to me today!

♥ “I’m a Nickel today Mommy!” ♥

We woke her up by all singing “Happy Birthday”! I then proceeded to ask my Bebe Girl how old she was today and her response, with the biggest grin ever, to me was, “I’m a Nickel today Mommy, a WHOLE Nickel!!”

I don’t even know where to start or what to say about this precious young lady of mine who has stolen my heart past the point of no return… what can you say about someone who has your heart in the palm of their hand and who you would do back flips for??!! I find myself sitting here fighting back tears yet again at the fact that my first born, my precious bebe girl is becoming a little lady and there is nothing I can do to stop that! Why is there no stop or pause button on this Crazy thing called Life, one where we could just press pause, or even stop and Live in that moment for a little bit longer, taking it in in every way possible before having to press Play again and having to move on, Wouldn’t that just be Perfect!?! But since there is no such thing of the sorts, I find myself Living in every little moment whole heartedly when it comes to her! She is just such a little person now, with so much knowledge and smarts about her that I tend to find myself lost in her words when she tells her stories or lost in her imagination when she is playing with her dolls…. although, sometimes I even find myself lost in the moment of watching her sleep! Oh how I love this little girl, Beyond the Moon and Back!

So to my Precious Bebe Girl Young Lady, Happy 5th Birthday “Little Red” (July 16th, 2010)!

<3 My Heart Smiles:

Sweet Summertime!!

the fact that I was sooo Over the Moon blessed with such a wonderful life, such amazing children and the most awesomest husband ever!! <3

♥ My Son, the 3 year old! ♥

You know, I thought this day would never come…… no wait, let me rephrase, I hoped this day would never come, for both my children, but alas for some odd reason it comes without being stopped, it’s the day when bebes turn 3. Now 3, to me, is an important and emotional age and by that I mean, it’s important for them because they must grow up, emotional for me because I want them to stay bebes forever! But since I cannot get my way, the time comes when we must celebrate another wonderfully blessed year that has flown by way to quickly! This June, we celebrated my son Dustin’s 3rd birthday, it was the funnest birthday to date because this year he sang “happy birfday” to himself, blew out his own candles and even opened his own presents, all the while saying to me ” I dude it mommy, I big boy now, I dude it by myself”! I was and am so stinkin’ proud of him, he is growing into such a great little guy, so much personality, so much spunk and drive to be his own person and so much determination to learn and do things by himself!! For example, I love watching him fish, he has taught himself how to cast his fishing pole and he won’t let anyone show him different, he thinks his way is the way to go and well who can argue with him, he does a fine job at making it in the water! ;-) ( The one thing I can think to say at this point about him is that even though he looks like me, he acts like his daddy!!) A little brag I have is that He knows all of his colors and can count to 20 without any help from anyone which is thanks to his teacher/sissy! Everyday when she got home from school, she would proceed to “school” Bubba on everything she learned that day and the boy knows a bunch of stuff now because of it! Like one example, he will tell you that M-m-mommy starts with M and D-d-daddy starts with D, oh and that Ch-Ch-Cheyenne starts with Shhh! (laughed out loud didn’t you?!!! So did I when he first told me!) Anyway, I could go on and on and brag all night about that little guy but emotions are setting in once again and I cannot hang with my own thoughts right now!! My bebe boy is 3 and well not so much of a bebe any more, he is a big boy…. someone hug me please.  :-(

So even though it is belated, Happy Birthday to one of my biggest blessings from God himself!! I love you Dustin Wyatt, happy birthday little man!!

Love this one, he was chewin’ on some hay like the little country boy he is!! <3

And here is a small walk down memory lane, 3 years of Dustin!!

<3 My Heart Smiles:

today’s heart smiles are pretty much a huge combination of my children, my Husband and the GREAT Lord above! I am one super blessed mother and wife and I am soo over the moon happy! :-)
