MONZx2+C+SUM=US

Just part of the job....

- Finding a sucker stuck to your shirt is just one of the many little fun surprises you find daily when your a mom.:)

So as I've said in a previous post my first born child likes to call me by my first name... I've always thought it was super cute and it's never bothered me....UNTIL NOW....:)
So we were at the mall the other night and Monroe was going up to all the manequins (most headless by the way!) saying "This is my mom!" "my mom" "my mom!" WHAT THE?!?!? Is my child having an identity crisis?!? Or are my mothering skills so bad that a headless manequin seems more motherly than me! SAD!

Soooooo i think he was just being funny right??????...:-/

INVITED....to Collin's Carnival!

Since this is really the only "scrap booking" I do....I just wanted to remember the other little details that the other 100 pictures didn't really show!!! hahaha

The invites to the Carnival... (excuse the picture quality)

His cute shirt from Aunt Natty...

The little stickers...

and the "Thank You's"...

I got most of the cute birthday items off etsy.com ...(like the personalized items & sign, his hat, the vintage bags, etc)...but beware...or at least I didn't know when to stop!;-/ haha

Collin's First Birthday!!!

Collin Sage is ONE!!!! Oh what fun!!!! What better way to celebrate than with a carnival!

COLLIN'S CARNIVAL WAS A BLAST!!!

Here are just a 'few' pictures from the big day! (If you are one of the two that read this blog, you know I am a girl of few words and MANY pictures!;))

Lets start with the COOLEST one year old EVER - COLLIN!

He's one cool kid! (This is when we went on our bike ride on his actual birthday!)

Then we have the CUPCAKES!!!!....

and all the YUMMY TREATS

and all the CRAZY party goers/HELPERS...this is the zoo crew that helped set up!

The DECOR...

The BIRTHDAY BOY:)

The CLOWN...;)

Here are some of the PARTIERS...

CUPCAKE DEVOURING...

Outfit change (thanks Nat!) & PRESENTS!!!

The only SAD part of the party was that Monroe was SICK & couldn't come!:( ...but thanks to Aunt Julie for thinking of him and getting him his favorite BuzzN'Awoody!;) That made his day!:)

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO CAME TO COLLIN'S CARNIVAL!!! WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!!!

Being Healthy is HARD

So my cracked wheat hot cereal is STILL cooking and in the mean time I've polished off a bag of peanut M&M's & 2 Eggos!!! This stuff just takes waaaay too long to cook & the mess it's making is making me mad! I'm done blogging now & it still has 9 minutes! Maybe I'll have it for lunch...

Too tired to sleeeeep...

So as I lay here in bed too tired to sleep (crazy I know...but busy day + too much caffeine (oooops) = mind racing!)....all the funny things that Lil' Monroe says is going through my mind making me smile. So I had to share, or at least blog it down so I don't forget! I love this kid! He's so smart & just makes me happy!:)

When he sings "I am a Child of God" he says " I am a child of golf"

He no longer calls me mom it's just "Summer or Sum!" it started out "Summer wA r u?!" now it's "Sum Summer Sum watch this!!!" etc...

Rice Krispy treat - Christmas treat

Pterodactyl - tic-tac-tic-tactyl

Cupcakes - pupcakes

He calls himself 'you' "You do it!" means "I'll do it" or in a picture of us he says, "mom(or Summer:)), dad, Collin, you"

Honey Nut Cheerios - "Bee's"

Shredded Mini Wheats - "Guys" or "chocolate guys" for the chocolate ones (because of the little cereal guys on the box/commercials)

"no make a mess!" if u've help him u know!;)

Oh man I know there's a big one I'm forgetting! There's a ton more I just need to get better at writing them down so I don't forget!;) Hence the blogging!;)

He is always singing and knows all the words to sooo many songs! I love his little singing voice! He's too cute!;)
