30 and Thriving!!!

No...this isn't me turning 30...I have snuck in a few Caleb bits as well!!! ENJOY!!


Here is Caleb making good use of my Christmas present! Ad got me a Nook Color for Christmas ( I LOVE IT!) and you can download childrens' books to it. They actually read it to the kiddos! Well Caleb has figured out how the Nook or "Mom's Dook" as he likes to call it, works. He can turn it on, finds the story that he wants to hear and listens (or I will read to him!) This is the only way I can get him to settle down to listen to a story!


He's got a few favorites that we've heard a million times!


Turning the pages! What a smartie!!


Well...it's finally happened...I'M 30 YEARS OLD!!! I can't believe that I made it to this milestone of a birthday! As I reminisce on the past thirty years, it has been filled with the BEST of times and the BEST of people! I am so grateful for all that I have accomplished...especially being a wife and mother...I never knew that my heart could be so full of love for my husband and my son! They have been such a blessing and I thank Heavenly Father everyday that I have the opportunity of having an eternal family! I am definitely looking forward to the years to come and all of the GREAT times!!!
I would continue on with my wellness stats (like I do with Caleb) but don't really want to embarrass myself! Lets just say, i'm thankful for my health and for my treadmill!!


Our traditional birthday treat...CUPCAKES!!!! Gotta love Ohh La La!! We indulged on the Margaritaville (the green) one after a lovely dinner at Roccos...the BEST Italian restaurant!


As tradition, I took a Mardi Gras King Cake to share with my kiddos at school! It's like a GIANT cinnamon roll...quite delicious...


WATCH OUT! so that baby wasn't edible?


My first homemade birthday gift from my son!!


a one of a kind bracelet from Adam...he got it from a little unique jewelry shop downtown that I have always wanted to drop in to! What a thoughtful hubby I have!!
Isn't it SUPER fun?!?


Caleb usually has a little Thomas time after he gets up from his nap. This is what we see when Thomas is on! I just love how he sits and watches!


We call this...the Thomas Trance!

Stay tuned...Caleb turns 3 a week from tomorrow...I know, right?!?

Glad you survived your big 3-0. You can't go wrong with delicious dinner and creamy cupcakes!
The pics of Caleb watching Thomas are just like my view of Oliver as he watches. He sits Indian style a few feet from the tv and just takes it all in. And I love how Caleb has his arm up behind his head as he's lounging on the couch "reading". That kid really has that 'casual' look down pat!
