our weekend...

Julian has fallen back in love with curious george. I rented the movie for him..and he watched it, and rewatched it....
Look at that face- ... aww

He is so silly.. really has a golden personality!

Aunt Kristie sent us a king cake! it was the kind we got to decorate...

Yeah Julian ate more than he worked...

We put the baby in his piece of cake..thought he should get the full experience!

he was shoving it in...that plastic baby sure was not going to stand in his way!

but after he finished the cake, he took time to appreciate the surprise 'toy'

:) enjoy!

finally outside....briefly..

It has been cold as ice outside- literally. It has not been above freezing in weeks, in fact about two months! Today we HAD to get out the house and get some fresh air for a change. In Julian's little house, the sink was a solid block of ice.. kid you not...

While outside, Julian kept looking, and pointing to the sky while saying, " RAWRRR". Obviously, I knew there was no dinosaur in my back yard....but he made it clear to me that it was in the sky. So I went to look from his perspective, and sure enough....

There was a huge cloud cloud just off to the side of our yard, that looked JUST LIKE A DINO. It was so cool to see how observant he is, as well as, his little imagination at work.

... see, I told you!... :P

Oh what relief his face expressed, once mommy saw what he saw!

Julian refused to keep his coat so our time spent outside in the fidget air was by far not

my blog post have become boring. Our days are spent inside the four walls of our home, with very little time outside, or doing fun things. We are beyond ready for spring, and summer. The only new things in our lives, is the news we received today, that I would love to share with you all...

Josh got relieved to recruiting duties in New Orleans!! We are all very happy to be returning to the South, and living closer to our families!

I will blog again when our life becomes interesting..but for now-- it's the same ol', same oh!

Practice makes Perfect!

This morning Julian has been in such a good humor. Brandon spent the night last night, and Julian enjoyed waking up to a face his associates with nothing short of FUNNNN!!

By 9:00 Julian had already made #1&2 in the big boy potty and received his first sticker of the day. I would say potty training is on a good path, considering we've been trying for months and he would refuse to do #2 at all. However, since the first day of the new year he has already done it in the potty willingly three times!

When daddy rolled out of bed, Julian of course ran to him ready to play, usually its the rough, daddy -son type of play. But this morning Julian was more for playing pretend. I rushed to grab my camera as he took his dad's finger to pretend taking his blood sugar! We were both so impressed, and glad he is catching on to the routine of how to take care of his disease.

He used a pretend thermometer he got after being diagnosed as his 'finger poker'....

(notice his cute, CARS undies! ekkk)

then told daddy, 'sowwie' as he put on a pretend band aid.

After seeing how well he was doing, we let him try to do Daddy's sugar for real... and were both blown out of the water! He knew how to put the test strip in, how to poke the finger(although daddy did it) and knew to put the meter on the blood until it beeped.

::notice his tattoo from yesterday's potty success!! :) :) :)

After checking daddy's sugar, Julian took the sticker he received for using the potty, off his own hand and gave to his Daddy. :) How sweet, and clever is our little angel?

We are so impressed with our dear Julian!! He is growing far to fast, but we are so proud of the little boy he is becoming!

enjoy! :)

lil tiger

Yes, our son has been raised right.. he has worn LSU gear since the day he was brought home from the hospital, watched more games that he has fingers and toes, and knows to yell TOUCH DOWN- jump up and down and scream WOOOHOOO! But none of that put the icing on the cake like how I found him in bed the other day during nap.

Julian's LSU Jersey hangs in this very place every single day( except game days) and his book he got for Christmas "Born to be a Tiger" usually sets up right next to the Jersey( on the opposite side from the other books).

But on this given day, we happen to been watching ESPN,(last channel watched the night before evidently) and Julian loved watchign the game reviews so i left it there. When time for nap, he wanted me to read his LSU book. I read it once..( its a lil long) so i refused to read it again, and again.. AND again!.. So i set it back up on his dresser. When i went in to check him, I found his COO COO (like in above picture) pulled next to his dresser to give him enough height to reach his dear book..

and this is how it was wrapped in his lil arms..

My sweet boy is a carbon copy of his father, and was with out of doubt born, destin to be a Tiger Fan.

enjoy.. xoxo
