Elephant Boy

~I like to call him Peanut, but he refers to himself as Elephant.


~I love that Blake has created nicknames for us.

Dad is Horsey

Mom is mommy monster (I am very flattered)

and Blake is Elephant.

~I love going to the park with him (I could push him on the swing for hours)

~I love to watch him stand on his very tippy toes to wash his hands, especially in his underpants.


~I love how everything he picks up becomes an airplane

~I love that my kisses still make it all better.

~I love that he is deathly afraid of flies but does not hesitate to squish a spider with his bare hands.
~I love that he asks why??? for EVERYthing.
~I love that he wants an egg salad sandwich for lunch everyday.
~He amuses me with all his made up songs that he sings to me.

~And of course, he is the most perfect angel when he sleeps.

The best gifts in life are our children!

I agree! I also love his curls! He is really so handsome. What a sweet post! I must say though the tippy toe picture is perfect. Right out a movie...I think you'll always love that one to look back on. Too cute and so fun to remember!

You make being a mom sound so fun. I think you really lucked out with such a sweet-tempered boy! (I love mine too... I just have to be reminded sometimes)

Blake is adorable and it doesn't hurt that he has a head of perfect curls.
It still makes me sad that Andrew lost his after that first haircut.

That was a cute little post. Jared started laughing and said "mommy, Blake is in his underwear. That's silly" I think it's funny that he thinks its so silly when all he does is hang out in his underwear. Boys.......
