Love Thursday

For the love of vacation and Arizona.

One week from today, yes I will be flying on 9/11, I will be basking in the heat of the desert in the good ole state of Arizona. Most of you probably know my mom and sister both live there. I am very excited and deathly afraid at the same time. Excited for the obvious reasons, my mom, sis, to get away, etc. Deathly afraid because...two words: James, Airplane. Not only am I bringing my 14 month old on an airplane, I am doing it alone. Caleb has to work so he can't come. I have done this before, last November. James was only 4 months old and slept the whole time. I can guarantee you that WILL NOT be the case this time. If anyone has any super tips on accomplishing this task with not too many nasty looks from fellow Boeing passengers, I am all ears! The picture above was taken when we were in AZ last year...notice my little baldy. YAY! Arizona here we come!

Happy Love Thursday!

"it's a big world baby and you're little for a little while
it's a big world baby you can fiddle in your own style" Lyrics from Renee and Jeremy "It's a big world"

James could easily be my subject for every Love Thursday!

This picture was taken almost exactly 1 year ago when he was just 9 weeks old. For those of you who haven't read my blog from the begining, for the first 20 some weeks of James' life I did these little weekly pics. I would probably still be doing them if he would let me, it's hard enough to get one picture without him running away :)

The Renee and Jeremy songs remind me so much of when James was a peanut like in the above picture. Mostly the songs, Free, Night Mantra, It's a Big World, and Welcome to this world. I can hardly listen to them without bawling my eyes out. I would hold him so close and we would sit there all alone, just the two of us and listen to this music. It scares me how fast time is going...I sometime wish everything would just slow down for a second.

Happy Love Thursday!!

It was brought to my attention that I didn't do Love Thursday last week, oopsie daisy! No, Actually I knew that I didn't do anything, last week was a busy week and I couldn't think of anything to post for it...but I am back, with my new obsession of cupcakes!!! I love them! Although, they don't help much when you are trying to loose weight! I made these a few days ago yum yum yum!
This love Thursday is dedicated to my cousin Sarah!!!

And a little newborn shout out:

Welcome to the world Baby Ezra Jack and to Baby Jacob Robert!!!

Love Thursday

Low shutter speed on my camera + a light from my cable box =

Happy Love Thursday everyone!! Go give someone you love a great big bear hug and a juicy kiss!

I'm gonna start something called Love Thursday. I got the idea off of one of my fav photog sites called Shutter Sisters. I'm going to post a pic and maybe a brief story every thursday regarding LOVE! :)

A picture of me and my love Caleb. This was, I think the day before his needed haircut :)

This picture was taken the day of James' first birthday party- so June 21st. I seriously think this was the first picture taken of just Caleb and I, and no babe, since James was born. I'm a big fatty bo batty so I try to stay out of as many pics as I can anyway. I will be back in the pics once my body looks like a swimsuit model...so pretty soon HA!
