Derricks 2 years old!!!

I can hardly believe that my baby is 2 years OLD!! Time really flies by when you have kids!! We just had a family party for our Dare Bear with grandma's and Grandpas, aunts and uncles. Of course there was some cake and ice cream too! D is a big, solid boy who loves his mommy, daddy and his big brother. He wants to do anything that Brent is doing and they get into all kinds of trouble together! He is starting to talk up a storm too! He will say almost anything but his favorite is when we ask him to come here he says "I coming!" and when he doesn't come and we ask again he says it louder, with more attitude, and an almost scolding look "I coming!"



Everyone looked over to see the two boys sneaking some of the frosting off the cake!!! The little pills! :)

He is just so darn good at folding his arms. Even when he doesn't have to.

He got a booster seat from grandma (cause he needed one) and as soon as he opened it he wanted to sit in it. And he HAD to have the tray on! He really liked playing with his cars, but what little boy doesn't!

Fun with Shaving Cream

Both Brent and D had a ton of fun with daddy's shaving cream. Brent isn't in the pictures because this was actually the second time that day that he had gotten into it! So he got into a little more trouble and sent to the corner. I think its interesting to see the things they have so much fun with.

Brent is 3!

Brents Aunt Jennifer's birthday is just the day before his, so we celebrated them on the same day this year! Brent kept trying to blow out his candles before it was time and then he got to help Jennifer blow hers out!!

Carving our Pumpkin!

Well, we finally got around to carving a pumpkin for Halloween!! Yay! It was fun. Derrick had fun helping daddy scoop out all the pumpkin guts, but Brent wouldn't touch it. Even after a little pushing, he wouldn't budge. They were "yucky"! :) He did help daddy pick out a face for the pumpkin. It was a smiley face, so the rest of the night and since, he calls it the happy pumpkin. Kids are cute huh?

Happy Birthday Daddy!!

Where would our family be without this wonderful man that we call husband, daddy and friend. We are so blessed to have him in our lives and are eternally grateful for him. He brightens our days and makes us feel safe during the night. Thank you for all you do Josh. Your family loves and appreciates you. Happy Birthday! We are so glad you was borned ;)



We had a VERY last minute get together for Josh just before his birthday. We celebrated that weekend, but his birthday was actually on a Monday and his Monday's are just super crazy. We had to have cake and ice cream. And we HAD to sing to him! Growing up it didn't matter how old you were. You had a cake and everyone sang happy birthday to you. And so it continues! :)

Num Num!! D loves him some cake!!
