I think I'll Post again

Here we go. I think it is time to post again. Just for fun.

So, my sweet husband got me an awesome camera for birthday last year and I have been learning learning and shooting shooting, trying to figure it all out.....because it is my passion. And my Destiny (I have always wanted to say that something was my Destiny).

I joined a little Flickr group that, for one month, posted a picture a day. And had to relate each shot to a different letter of the alphabet each day. And then we comment one each others photos and lend advice (me not giving, mostly getting) and make everyone feel good in the end. But also learn a lot from others. It has been a busy month. I am almost done (ends on Thursday), but I post a few just for fun...

E is for End of Day

W is for Wheel

B is for Bell

P is for Peek A Boo

V is for Vein

T is for Tongue

J is for Jello

18 months....and still kickin....

Hello, little boy.
No wait....You are big. And funny. You say words like Ogre and Ostrich and Bronco and you love love love the park. You say Shoes and then Park and then Fun fun fun as we skip out of the car on our way to the swings.
You love grapes and cheese. You could live on cheese alone if you absolutely had to. Or if I let you. You are a Monkey (ooo-ooo-aaah-aaah) and climb on everything. You love Elmo and carry him around in your hand. You love to watch Robbert Bobbert on the Youtube and call the computer "Apple"......(wish we really had an Apple).

You have a little bike and you like to ring the bell. Or Belmo, as Elmo would say. And you LOVE Shrek. If you could, you would watch Shrek all the day long.

You know the sounds the animals make. You use your little pointer finger A. Lot. You are a bit of a prankster and love to wrestle anyone who is laying on the ground. You beg to be tickled and you love to blow bubbles. You are crazy about bubbles. And you are really really good at popping them. You love balls. You love to say "basket ball", and dad hopes it will turn into "football" really soon....You know that cars go VROOOOM and the Sheep says BAAA...You give everyone fives when you leave school.....And you get really sad when other people are sad. If you bonk your head you are sure to show me what caused the pain, and sometimes you reinact it...

You love your dad. You guys are the best of buds and it is the sweetest thing to see....

I love you little Monkey!!!

Love,

Mama

2009: Review in Photos

Hey...I know you! Welcome back....

Here is what you've missed while you were away, worrying about other things, you know, other than why I hadn't posted...

(caution: might make your heart explode. I am totally not responsible for that)

January 2009: Junior Birdman learned how to get more and more chunky. And possibly cuter (how?) AND he started a very competitive Gigantic Caterpillar Wrestling career.
February 2009: First solid foods. Hasn't slowed down since. (look at those arms!)

March 2009: Face-Melting Cuteness: Achieved April 2009: Finally started pulling his weight around the house. About time. (that joke never gets old)

May 2009: First airplane trip! Did great on the plane and had an amazing time wowing my side of the family with his impressive Army Crawling skills.

June 2009: Junior Birdman receives his Third Official Haircut. Or should I say Hair Cute? ha! (I may be a wee bit more cheesy since the Birdman came into my life)

July 2009: Junior Birdman wows the ladies with his book collection, and ability to slobber on demand, and crawl like a real man.

Acting SO nonchalant. It is his "thing".

August 2009: The Birdman learned that dirt=gross, played with Grandpa Jensen's beard (last picture with him), and perfected his "cool guy look" for the aforementioned "ladies"

September 2009: One Year Old! Grandma K came to visit and we had a serious backyard Par-Tay, complete with a fever and unidentified rash ...AND he showed everyone what it REALLY means to be a Bronco fan.

October 2009: Junior Birdman as Yoda. The End. AND convinced us to buy him two little goats and put them in our backyard.

November 2009: Confirmed his love for apples. A lot of apple eating in November.

December 2009: Presents! Christmas! Fun! and Birdman ventured into the snow for the very first time!

Well, there you have it. A complete recap! Hooray!

Expect more excitement tomorrow, when I return with " What has Birdman been carrying around lately?"
