my baby is 3


On January 29th, 2011, I didn't think I'd be going into labor...not after a night with contractions then all day I had no signs of labor.  God had a different plan... Sawyer became part of our world that night and has made me smile (and wonder what I will ever do with this little boy) many times. 
 


Still in his crib...right after his nap...I love it when he just wakes up...

bedhead...
 
Sweet smile from his 2 year pics

Sawyer's b-day party


After going to Disney, Sawyer fell in love with Woody from Toy Story.  He's watched the movie enough to know the characters, but likes Woody the most.  His party was at Party Zone...they did all the games, decorating and clean up...perfect.
 



 



Decorating his cowboy vest. He worked a long time on this ;)

He was also very excited about "his" friends coming to his party.





Pin the badge on the Cowboy :)





We had a great time celebrating with all of our friends!!

more to come on the newest 3 year old!

a little late...



Just wanted to say Happy Anniversary to one of the best couples around.  With so many negative influences around, it's nice to have parents who set a positive example of what real love and life, lived in Christ, looks like. We love you Mom and Dad!! Happy 39th..get ready for  next year..it's the big 40 years :)

Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party


No, the trip isn't over yet :)  Here's Main Street at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party.  The weather was low 60's and yes there was magical snowfall and free hot chocolate and cookies. What else could be better? :)


Are Michael's eyes closed .. I really can't tell? :)


Stella and I got closer to the stage performance while waiting on the parade.

are his eyes closed again?!

the parade begins with every character, prince and princess!




Stella waving at all the characters melted my heart. :)




the laser show is always amazing!!! We saw it multiple times and was awe every. single. time! :)

Snow White

Singing Bear Jamboree was the cutest show ever...

Tinker Bell






On to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique to get all ready for dinner at Cinderella's Castle.




CINDERELLA!!

Sawyer rushed to the bathroom RIGHT before taking a picture with Cinderella...that's why his shorts are crooked...true story :)



 
a really fancy dessert that no one liked...but it was pretty...

Storytime with Belle.  Michael was a guard :)


Sawyer was the prince.


Well, I have more picture from Disney but these all were my favorite.  I can't wait to go back again to do more things and do the same things we loved.  It was such a wonderful trip!!
