3100 Days Old...December 28, 2014

Do you want to build a snowman? Anderson is obsessed with Frozen right now, and he is loving his new Olaf hooded towel that he got for Christmas. Let me ask you one thing...who could ever say no to that sweet little face?!?

3090 Days Old...December 18, 2014


Jackson had his gymnastics performance at the zoo tonight, so we got to enjoy the zoo lights and train ride before his performance. Anderson came thisclose to falling off the train, but luckily a fast thinking mom came to the rescue. It was very traumatic for both of us. Mother of the year right here! See y'all in 5 more days!

Jackson had his first basketball game today, and Anderson was thrilled to get to watch his Bubba play. I love it that even though these two boys drive each other bonkers, they are still crazy about each other. Handsome kids, right?!?

Anderson wanted to model his new pajamas and cape that Nana made for him today because it's Nana's birthday! Nana did good! Happy Birthday, Nana!

The resident three year old has decided that Frozen is his favorite movie of all time. He is obsessed with it, and I think we've watched it 20 bajillion times in the last few days. I'm ready to "let it go", but this cutie has a way with getting what he wants!

3050 Days Old...November 8, 2014

Sporting his new haircut. Ladies, watch out! This little one is a heart breaker for sure! Seriously, I could eat him up. His vocabulary has grown by leaps and bounds, and it is amazing to see how far he has come without speech therapy since June. We are so proud of our little man! See y'all in 5 more days!

3045 Days Old...November 3, 2014

So apparently we are now big enough to go out in the backyard and play by ourselves. At least according to the resident 3 year old. I guess that happens when you have a big brother. You think you are just as big as they are! See y'all in 5 more days!

 So as it turns out, Anderson isn't as big a fan of my kayak as I am. He rides with me, but I think he's just mad because he doesn't have his own kayak yet. At 3 years old, I think that would be a disaster! See y'all in 5 more days.

3015 Days Old...October 4, 2014

Today Jeremy took Jackson to Birmingham to see the Marvel United Live Show. That left Anderman and I on our own for the afternoon, and we didn't waste any time having fun. We started off by heading to Sweet Frog for orange dream frozen yogurt topped with boba beads and strawberries. It was so good, and Anderson loved getting to pick all his favorite toppings. After Sweet Frog we drove over to Academy and checked out all the fun sporting stuff, and then Anderson picked to have supper at Tokyo. He loves fried rice! When we got home I asked him what he wanted to do next, and without missing a beat he said, "I wanna paint." So we painted! He had such a good time, and it was so much fun having some quality one on one time with my little man. He finger painted after a while, and was thrilled with his mess. I was thrilled with that sweet little smile! Worth every bit of that mess!

3010 Days Old...September 29, 2014

Anderson started cubbies at Awana last night, and woke up first thing this morning wanting to put on his Awana vest. He is working so hard on learning his first verse, "I am wonderfully made." He has the I am made part down pat, but our speech delayed kiddo can't get wonderfully down to save his life. At least he's trying, right?

Anderson found Jackson's Auburn jersey from when he was younger and has been obsessed with wearing it ever since. He'll say, "I wear my Auburn football shirt today?" This precious little boy is so much fun. He makes life more colorful! See y'all in 5 more days!

Captain Jackson and his Skipper Anderson. These boys can have fun just about anywhere! Today was on a kayak in the middle of our backyard. Love these kids!

I made a strawberry cake today with the boys. They got to lick the beaters from the homemade strawberry icing. Lucky kids!

2090 Days Old...September 9, 2014



Today I let Jackson and Anderson spread out all over the kitchen floor and play with Playdough. It made a huge mess, but you would have thought that I was a super hero for how much fun they had. It was worth every little bit of that mess!

2085 Days Old...September 4, 2014

Anderson is still in the patriotic mood after celebrating Labor Day, so he cheered me on with a flag this morning while I packed Jackson's lunch box for school. I can't think of a cuter little boy to cheer me on as I get ready for the day!

Anderson loves Ellie Mae over at his Nana's house. He had to come check on her since she had shyed away from the group. She appreciated his comfort greatly, as you can tell from her stance! And there is the cheese face again! I love this little man!

Big brother Jackson got a bow and arrow for his birthday, and Anderman had to go out and supervise the practice session dresses as Batman. He has got personality galore lately! He is always running around the house pretending to be Batman or Superman or Spiderman. Basically any superhero that he can remember their name. It is so cute! Even Jackson gets a kick out of it. So enjoy today's picture of Batman and Bowman!

This little stink bug has been working so hard on his speech lately. He is talking much clearer, and is even starting to tell Jeremy and I to "wait a minute" when we are trying to get him to hurry up with something. What a mess! Even when he is being a stinker, we are so proud of him. It feels wonderful to hear him chatting our ears off! See y'all in 5 more days!

Some days nothing will make you happy until you get to dress up in your big brother's Green Lantern costume that is 4 sizes too big and run around the house until you collapse in a pile of giggles. Today was one of those days! See y'all in 5 more days!

Anderson and Pete had to spend some time in the Get-Along-Shirt. Pete had been pestering him, and needed some discipline. Anderson looks like he enjoys it more than when he has to share the shirt with his brother! See y'all in 5 more days!

Anderson and Pete have strep throat. No fun, but at least they can keep each other company while they are down. And boots make everyone feel better.

Prattville is known for it's artesian wells, and today Anderson enjoyed drinking from the artesian water fountain when we ventured down to the splash pad. Nothing can beat the ice cold water fresh out of the ground, and Anderson loved it!

2020 Days Old...July 1, 2014

This little man of ours loves, loves, loves the alligator slide at the YMCA. It's his favorite thing in the world, and he will do it over and over and over again. I'm not complaining...I can actually sit in the shallow end of the pool and watch the fun without having to play Mommy-my-personal-entertainer role for a few minutes! See y'all in 5 more days!

Anderman has been a A+ trooper during Jackson's baseball season, and he did amazing during his first Allstars Tournament today. He ate more concession stand than my wallet could hardly afford to think about, but all in all, he was incredible. And cute to boot.

Our little stink bug had to get in the picture today for Bubba's last full day of school! Anderson is doing amazing with his speech, and I can't wait to see how much he improves over the summer! He has been such a trooper with Jackson's ball games this season, and all in all, he's one laid back little man. Love my boys!

I caught the boys today in a moment of sweetness. They were sitting on the swing set, eating the beef jerky that I bribed rewarded them with for acting somewhat decent as I did my grocery shopping today. I think, based on how quiet they were, that the bribe reward was successful! I should give treats like this more often! See y'all in 5 more days!

This little stinkpot had an awesome time at tonight's baseball game. Besides running away from me any chance he could get, insisting that he needed to potty again whenever Jackson was up to bat, digging in the dirt, jumping in puddles and sticking his dirty hands into my drink to get the ice out, he ate cheese sticks, nachos and half of a hotdog. And this was after supper! Such a fun little boy! Any time Jackson went back into the dugout, Anderson would look at me and say, "Bubba game all done?" Love, love, love this little man of mine!
