My little love bug!

I'm so in love with my little Sean. He is so sweet and at such an incredibly fun age. We have so much fun chasing him, making him laugh, and seeing his little eyes light up! He is definitely a "momma's boy" and I love every second I get to spend with him.

I'm feeling a little emotional right now....(so sorry for the post). The other day I was talking to a friend and remembering when Sean was born & how hard those 1st couple of days were.... Just the thought of not having him here, breaks my heart & all those emotions come back like it was yesterday. I remember thinking how I could not live through something like that and just praying that He would intervene. I thank Heavenly Father every day for allowing me to have these 2 little boys and for letting Sean be a part of our family. I can't imagine my life without him & I'm so grateful that miracles happen & that the Lord is so very involved in our lives!

 

(This picture looks a lot like me when I was his age- I'll have to post one so everyone can see.)


It's amazing how our little ones bring so much joy into our lives! What a blessing it is to be a mom!

Carving Pumpkins!

The boys had so much fun Carving Pumpkins this year! It was a lot of work for a 4 and 1 year old, thank goodness Mom was there to help.

They worked real hard (as you can tell). I love their concentrated faces- so busy, even Sean looks like he knows what he's doing!

Take a look at Andy's face- "Ahhhhhh, Sean what are you doing? Don't eat that!"

my charmer- Andy. Gotta love that smile- muaaaa!

....and after a lot of work- tada.... the end result- 2 pretty good looking pumpkins! :)

Park Days

Andy & Sean love going to the Park, it's their favorite time of the day and who blames them--- they feel so free!

Andy is a little monkey- he loves to climb and show me all of his tricks.

Sean is learning from his big brother and wishes he could do all those fun things he sees Andy do....

It's getting so cold, so we'll be back to enjoy the fresh warm air in a couple months!

Oh so yummy, but oh so messy!

Mangoes
Sean loves mangoes, just like his mommy. It's absolutely my favorite fruit in the whole world and it looks like Sean's too. In fact, I have pictures as a little baby about Sean's age eating mangoes & looking much like my little boy w/ an orange beard! The only difference is that the ones I ate, were pulled straight form Mango trees in Venezuela vs. Store bought which are never as good, ripe or sweet. Either way, we are a mango loving family and I'm glad my boys inherited those taste buds from me- they are both excellent eaters who love a diverse variety of fruits and vegetables!

Look at that face.....

Yummy!

Forever Young!

Tom brought home this bike a few days ago & mom & dad couldn't help but take it for a spin & remember the good ol' days----> when they rode through Venezuela on dad's many motorcycles. They were so young & crazy they even took me with them on the bike sometimes when I was just a little baby, something they would not be so supportive of if it had to do with their precious grand kids.... funny how that happens- right?
Anyways, I love this picture of my parents. They are the greatest & we are so blessed to have them so close & to be able to share so many things with them!

The Circus

We took Andy & Sean to the Circus on Saturday. It was there 1st time & so much fun!

Here's Ellie helping Andy walk "on the tight-rope".

Andy being a great big brother as usual....helping mom push Sean in his stroller!

 

We got to meet all of the animals before seeing them perform.

This is right at the start of the show.....

take a look at Sean & Andy's face:

They were totally amazed. Sean was clapping, waving his arms & dancing the whole time.

Ellie & Andy sporting their clown noses.....We tried getting Sean to wear one but he wouldn't have it. It was funny he kept thinking he couldn't breath---he doesn't know how to breath through his mouth yet.

The tigers show was really cool, it's amazing to see these ferocious animals be so obedient to their trainer...

My favorite part was the elephants, they were so cute!

Andy's face in this one cracks me up..... :)

It was so fun to see Andy & Sean's faces. The Circus really put on an awesome show. They did incredible fetes & stunts....some were pretty scary. We really enjoyed it! I love being with my boys!
