My Little Texan

Landon sounds like a true Texan when he says certain words. It totally cracks us up! I took this video because I love the way he says, "all gone"...so country sounding. And when he says, "more" it sounds like "moe". I love watching his eyes blink in this video, he knows he is being filmed, and he couldn't wait to watch it when we were done. Please ignore my annoying voice, I hate the way I sound on video, but doesn't everyone?

Landon's Birthday Weekend

On Landon's actual birthday we took him to Cici's for dinner since pizza is one of his favorite meals. When we came home the 3 of us had cake and ice cream.

I think we ended up singing "Happy Birthday" at least 5 times because Landon loved blowing out the candles. This kid is seriously so much fun!Mom, Dad, Aunt Char, and Aunt Brit came in for the weekend to celebrate Landon's birthday. I'm so glad they came. Landon was just so happy the whole time they were here...I think he loves all the attention he gets. Grandma and Grandpa with the birthday boy.
I love this happy face--you can just see all the joy in his face...I love it!
Landon got his first set of underwear for his birthday! They have Sesame Street characters on them, and he just looks so stinkin' cute in them. He even modeled them for all of us, and it was just too funny watching him prance around in them.

We all loaded up and headed to Chuck-E-Cheese. It was Landon's first time there, and it was crowded and a bit crazy. But is was fun!

Landon is so lucky to have so many people in his life that love him. I think he had a pretty great 2nd birthday!

Happy 2nd Birthday, Landon!!

My little boy is 2 today! We have been celebrating all week long. Landon knows that when we talk about his birthday that it is something really fun and he usually yells, "YAY"! I love the way he says "two" when you ask him how old he is going to be...it sounds so sweet.

This boy fills my heart with so much happiness.
This day 2 years ago was one of the best days of our lives.

I hope that I make this little guy feel special everyday, but I want to really make his birthday feel like a super special day every year.

Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Char, and Aunt Brit are coming in this weekend to help us celebrate. That must be why Landon has such a big smile on his face!!

Bath Time...

I have been playing with photoshop lately, and trying to figure out how to get awesome looking pictures. I have SO much to learn!! In these 3 pictures I "tried" to make Landon's eyes really stand out, however I'm not sure I needed photoshop for that one--with eyelashes like his they already stand out.

Not sure why I have a dark line on top of this photo or on the side of the photo below...see what I mean--still so much to learn! Ha!

Oh, and I used my flash--I hear that is a big no no, too! I really admire the people out there that can take beautiful photos and make them even more beautiful through photoshop.

Go LOBOS!!

We went to watch the Lobos play TCU tonight with David's aunt, uncle, and his cousin Sean and his wife. We have gone to this game every year since Landon was born. He was only 12 days old when we took him to his first game.

It was so fun to watch Landon watch the game. I spent more time looking at him check everything out rather than watching the game.
Now those are some serious game faces.

Landon kept yelling, "LOBOS". He was copying his dad and Great Uncle Art.

After the game we went to Cooper's BBQ...yummy!!

Notice my white vest with fuzzy stuff on the collar....well, when I went to get Landon out of his bed after his nap, he pointed at me and said, "HO! HO!". I was not aiming to look like Santa when I put this on, I was trying to support the Lobos by wearing red! This little guy cracks me up!

Landon was a fiesty little guy by the time dinner was over since it was past his bedtime.

Next year we are going to have to get a Lobo shirt for Landon to wear to the game. He was the only one of us not wearing red tonight. Go Lobos!!

Stock Show

We took Landon to the Fort Worth stock show this morning, and it made me feel like a true Texan. Almost so much that I think I need a pair of cowboy boots, seriously!! As soon as we got home I looked for some on the internet!! Anyway, we had a great time and are already looking forward to next year.

Landon checking out the pig.

Landon really checking out the pig!

I wonder what he is thinking about the pig at this point. He was so intrigued.
Landon taking a look at some baby ducks.

Landon really liked the baby goats at first, and he had no problem holding them and petting them. But, as soon as I pulled out the camera he started crying...not too sure why?!? My favorite part of the picture is the how the baby goat is looking at Landon. It is as if he is saying, "Hey little friend, it's okay". Love it!!

We ventured past the horses and Landon kept saying, "moo". Guess we need to work on that on! Ha!!

Future Longhorn

David and I get to wear university shirts with jeans on days that report cards go home with our students. So, since we were wearing Longhorn gear Landon had to as well! You can tell by David's eyes that he is NOT a morning person! Ha!

I'm not kidding when I say that Landon L.O.V.E.S to clean. He was sweeping early in the morning before we headed out the door.

Although his cleaning obsession has tapered off a bit, he is still a cleaning machine!!

David took Landon for a run the other day. Landon really enjoys going on runs with us. He chats the entire ride about different things that he sees.

When David and Landon came home from their run, Landon did not want to get out of the stroller. He kept telling David, "run, run", so David got a little extra running in that afternoon! I enjoy taking Landon with me, but it is hard work pushing the stroller and trying to keep a steady pace. And it is a double workout when you are pushing against the wind--I thought my legs were going to explode the other day after a windy run with the stroller.
