Happy birthday Abram!

3 years ago today I gave birth to my second son Abram Mathew. What a quick and easy delivery he was...I should have know it wasn't always going to be that easy. Abram is a smart little boy and FULL of energy. He loves me most and tells me many times a day and showers me with lots of kisses.

Tomorrow is really Abram's birthday but we celebrated it today. He has been waiting ever so patiently for his birthday and was SO excited about his party!

A slinky, in his favorite color.

All Abram wanted was a tractor...
he spotted one in the garage and yelled...

"Is that my Jeep?"

running past me to get to the "Jeep."

testing it out.

And then there were cupcakes. Abram LOVES chocolate cupcakes.

"Happy birthday to you!"

Some misc pictures

For Renae's 40th birthday I made her a money tree...how cool is this thing?!?!?

At church Ethan's Patch the Pirate Club had a performance.

He did awesome with his lines and songs.

Last night was Ethan's school carnival. The boys favorite part was the "Do it yourself face painting." I worked in the kitchen the whole time so Steven took the boys around to all the activites, they had a fun time...or so they say.

Silly boy!

Abram being silly at supper!

The tooth has landed...I repeat the tooth has landed!

I told Ethan that my friend Renae is an expert at tooth pulling and asked him if he wanted her to pulls his...he said YES! I told him that if after dinner it still hadn't fallen out I'd call her. After dinner the tooth was still there so we made a visit to Renae and she didn't let us down! Thanks Renae!!!

wrapping the floss around the tooth.

soaking up the slobber.

first pull, no tooth.
still there.
lets try this again.

Ethan's look, he was so unsure.

soaking up the blood.

The tooth, it was so tiny!
