The best baby sled!

N got the below sled for Christmas from his Great Grandma.  *Please note the baby has on a helmet and goggles and possibly a small neck brace (what kind of baby sled is this?!)

We've barely had any snow this winter so when it snowed last week we blew that sled up!  Here's N taking some practice runs on dry land.

First time getting into his snow pants..

Starting to get a little nervous...(whenever I'm excited this seems to make him nervous).

Waiting oh so patiently for me to let him outside.

Giggling (and snorting) like crazy!

This sled rocked! (he only FLEW over to our neighbors house once..) Thanks Hans' grandma!

Overbearing Mom? Yep.

I put a little picture of myself and N on his dashboard.  Just a reminder to drive slow & to remember his mother at all times (even when I'm 10 feet away in the kitchen).

 He pointed at it and seemed to accept me in his car EVEN after his dad called him a sissy.

An hour later I found the picture on the ground and a little crumpled which is weird...must have just fallen off.  I made sure to stick it on the dasboard with more tape.  I also have super glue if it happens to fall off again.

Goldie

Giraffey Poo has been sulking in a pile of toys because N has forgotten about him and moved on to his new best friend, Goldie.  Goldie is a stuffed golden retriever, which belonged to my Grandma J. After she passed away last year, N was the lucky keeper.  She would love to see how much he adores her puppy.  Here's photos I took of the two best friends from last week.

I tried snuggling Goldie like N does (with N's permission and supervision) and have to say I felt the love too! Something about the stuffed thing that just makes you happy! Thank you grandma for such a great gift of love!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I THOUGHT it would be fun to do a Valentine's Day shoot with Nolan this year. When I kindly suggested it to Nolan I got the below look. So I figured he was up for it!!

First a little reminiscing of Valentine's Day last year.

He was definitely a hater.

I swear my 3 month old was playing games with me.

Last year was a Valentine's shoot failure so this year I was motivated to get some cute pictures!

PLAN A: Decorating his beloved car!

 I thought this would be a great place for some pictures since he LOVES his car...but mostly I just I couldn't get him out of it.

Once I got it decorated he got out of that car like a Madman!

Un-hearted his car..

-

And ran over the flowers..

Then proceeded to go hug his dog  (so at least we know he has a soul).

Plan B: Hearts taped on the wall.

I just needed ONE picture of him smiling at the camera to be satisfied.

Plan B: Part 2: Food Bribery

Plan B: Part 3:Cell phone bribery

I told him grandma was on the phone..

 When he finally figured out no one was on the other end..he was not happy.

And my phone paid the price.. chucked across the room.

Final Plan: Wait until Hans comes home.

I couldn't help myself with this shot..

And a little blurry but this one works for me!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!
