I started this post on the 21st... but I had some major problems downloading pictures, so I am late in posting. In only six very short months  my sweet baby boy will be a big three. I can hardly stand how fast time seems to be going by. My sweet little man, You have no idea how much you are loved, do you? Every time I look at you my heart swells with so much love that I think it will explode. The sound of your sweet voice saying "Momma" always brings tears to my eye's. You are so stubborn and can have such a temper at times. You know what you want and you usually are willing to put up a fight for it. You are defiantly all boy!

Everything is too big or to small and my lack of a tan kept me from wearing a dress, so I rushed to Target and found something. Ok.... a few somethings. I get back home, rush around and get everyone (including Jeff) ready.We got everyone in the truck just to discover the truck was having issues and there was no way we were going any where. Ok.. when I started this blog I promised to be honest, even about the ugly stuff. Well... it got ugly this Sunday morning. I lost it. I threw a fit. The kind of fit that if one of the kids threw they would be grounded until my grandchildren went away to collage. I am embarrassed by they way I acted.
