Time at the park

Today I took our little guy to the park. There were a lot of families there. We got on the slides, swings and kicked the soccer ball around. We had to get out of the house while Caleb was out for a ride.

Car wash

So I try and avoid going through a car wash with our little guy as much as I can. He freaks him out and he tends to cry. Well I made an attempt with him in the car and rather than cry this is what he did. He is so cute.

Love this boy

I have no words for how much I love this little boy.

Cuddle time

This is my favorite thing to do with our little guy.

Mothers Day

So I didn't get to write a post on mothers day but I still wanted to get on and post something. I have wanted to get family pictures taken since we have been home but didn't want to do them in the winter. So for mothers day I was given a date that we are going to have family pictures on. My two guys are the best people a girl could ask for. We were able to spend time with both of our moms.

It also had me thinking about our little guys birth mom. I know that I will never get the chance to thank her in person for the choice she made and how thankful I am for the gift she gave us. I also know that a single thank you or a million of them would never be enough. I know that she will never see this blog but I hope in her heart she knows that our little guy is being taken care of. He is loved. He is happy. He is amazing. I don't have the words to be able to explain exactly how I feel about this woman that I have never met but I have a deep love for her that I think only one mom to another can share.

Camping

This past weekend we went camping. I love spending time with the two most important men in my life. It was nice weather so we were able to get outside and go for a walk, ride bikes, kick a soccer ball around and play on the playground.

Studying our faces

Every now and again our little guy will stop whatever he is doing to study our faces. He raises his hands and places them on both of our cheeks. He sits there looking deep into our eyes. I know that people say the eyes are the window to your soul and I think he has figured that out. It only lasts for a few seconds but it feels like forever. If he isn't searching your soul he just sits and studies every detail on our faces. To be honest I love it. I feel like he is really trying to connect with us on a whole other level.

Colors

So we have been spending a lot of time working on our colors. Everyday I try and make a point to show him colors and say them. Tonight after eating I asked him to help me get a Tupperware lid out of the drawer. I told him to get the green lid as I pointed to it. He pulled it out and said green. He pulled out another lid. I told him it was pink. He repeated that it was pink. He pulled out another lid and yelled out blue before I could even say anything. As he stood there with both lids in hand I asked him to give Caleb the pink one. He then handed him the pink one and said pink. Our little guy is getting soooo smart. I love to see how much he learns every day.

Brushing teeth

Our little guy loves to brush his teeth. Well more like eat the toothpaste and fake brush. We always try and brush them first then give him the toothbrush to mess around with. I need to set up his first dentist appointment. Being that he cries when we brush I am not sure how the dentist visit is going to go over. Guess we will see.

A few of his favorite toys

So our little guy has a car and a worm that he loves. He loves the car because the tires wind up. He loves watching the tires go around and around. The worm makes all kinds of noises. Is talks, plays music and so on. Today I asked our little go to go throw them in the garbage. (These have become my least favorite toys.) Without hesitation he ran to the garbage and threw the car in there. He closed the door and stood there for a second. He then opened it back up, reached on and pulled out the car. He then ran over to me and told me no. I had to laugh. He listened to me tell him to throw it away until he realized what he was doing. He cracks me up.

Shots

Today our little guy had another round of shots. Overall he did pretty good. 4 shots is a lot for anyone to take. He was limping before his nap. We will see how he does tonight.

Excited for grandparents

Any time you mention to our little guy that a grandparent is coming over this is how he stays until they get to our house. He loves them so much.
