Brother?Sister?

Earlier this week I babysat a good friend of mine's little boy. He is nearly 10 months and Julian was soooooo good with him! He would pat his back when he got fussy, brought him his "cup"(bottle) when I was feeding him lunch, sat on the floor right infront of his face and talked baby babble with him! It was beyond adorable. So I asked him....

"Juju, do you want a Brother????" he said with such excitment... " YESSS MOMMYY!!!", and started hopping up and down.

I then asked,"Juju do you want a sister???" his hoenst to god reply was," nah uh, NOOO!" There was not a lick of coaching involved, and I have become a firm believer in, Kids Say the Darnest Things! Julian since has repeated it to my mom, mim, and his daddy. All three got the biggest kick out of it,and told me it's time to get baby making! Of course the little stinker didn't want to do it on camera until this morning, so please excuse my manly morning voice! :P So I guess it's time to start thinking bout giving Julian a sibling-- and hoping it will be a BROTHER, since clearly that is what he has his heart set on! :)

Enjoy!

first feel of snow..

Last night it began to snow around 7 pm. It became a mix of snow/sleet/rain, but none the less..snow. We woke this morning to the lightest dusting on the toys, cars and everything else outside.

Being that Julian loves 'ice'... i figured he'd enjoy feeling snow for the very first time...
so I gathered him up enough to fill his little hand..


& of course he called it "iceeee".. and stuck it in his mouth.


haha, Juju.. 'dont eat that yellow snow!'


I also took a few snap shots of the dusting.. It's such a delight to look out and see it along the fence line and up on the roofs even if it is the littlest bit. Snow= magical!




that's all! :)

change of scenery...

As much as I love the fall season, and to celebrate each Holiday to the fullest.. I just could not help it. My anticipation for Christmas is through the roof. Julian will enjoy this holiday to the fullest, now that he is at prime age. The presents under the tree Santa and Mom&Dad are going to blow him out of the water. I am excited to see the excitement in his eyes, and the squeals that reveal them selves as he burst at the seams.
Soooo, we put up our Christmas tree this morning. Julian helped for the first year, he got to put up his 'baby's first' ornament, and '2009' ornament as well.
... Oh and some others too.. haha

As he ravajaged my Christmas box, he also got his little sticky fingers on the bows. Of course he goes for the blue one, and sticks it right on top of his noggin.

Also, Fall is at it's best right now, today is felt most like spring(but more on the summer-ish side). We took advantage of what just might be the last day of real warm weather, and played outdoors majority of the time.
There is a tree on the other side the fence that is the most beautiful yellow. I was determined to get a picture of Julian in front of it, so I had Josh toss him in the air, haha.
Isn't the colors brilliant!!!???
We ventured out of the backyard .... and a few blocks down to Mount Trashmore. Here the colors threw themselves at me, from the top of the Mountain.

we got plenty exercise as well.. Julian's cheeks bounced and jiggled as he ran up and down hill, he was so tickled.













If the picture don't say it enough themselves... Julian enjoyed his time at the park, and the weather. We had a wonderful warm day at Mount Trashmore.
Once we got home, Daddy grilled us some chicken... and although is was still early (6:00) Julian took it upon himself to put himself to bed. He got his two best friends...a pillow... the blanket Aunt Linds made for him... and laid down..

Notice how he tucked Woody in, He DOES NOT sleep with out him now. In fact, a few nights ago he wet the bed, and Woody got wet, and now does not work.(but has been cleaned, lol) So looks like he might need a play time woody for Christmas, and keep his old woody(with missing pinky finger) as his sleepy time woody.
Enjoy..xoxo

Duty day..








Today was the first duty day since being back from Vacation.
It was a slow and lonesome day, Julian and I have become
so use to having Josh around daily. Today it was a wee bit chilly in the house.. I have not had the ac or heat on in over a month, but the winter chill is starting to move on in. Today Julian got to rock his footy jammies! He thought it was the coolest thing to have monkeys on his toes!!!













He would keep touching his toes, to see the monkeys!
But this was not my only project today! I got sick of seeing plastic bottles full of needles on my counter top... Sooooo.. I created a box that would look some what nicer seeing out, and that would hide the used needles.
I also began to decorate for Christmas holidays, which are ohhhh so quuickky sneaking up! Christmas is by far my favorite holiday, and this year will be the best ever! Julian is at the perfect age to tear open presents and show excitment and understanding to the festivities.
