My First....

Stop motion animation! This has been a week for birthdays - and videos :) My BFF is celebrating her birthday next week and I made this special invitation for her party. It was SO much fun to make - I'm totally hooked on stop motion videos now! I can't wait to make another one. Again - there is music - so pause my playlist at the bottom of the blog before watching the video. The music totally makes the video, so it's a must :) Happy Hump Day friends!!

Happy Birthday Mister!

Well, as I'm writing this post, I have a lump in my throat and a tiny tear in my eye. My baby boy turns two today! I'm not sure why I am so much more emotional this year than I was last year, but I just can't stop looking at him and thinking " he is SO big". He has changed so much this year and has gone from a baby to a toddler, to a little boy. I adore this little man with all my heart and soul.

Dear Owen,

I can't believe you are two today! It seems like just a few short months ago that I met you for the very first time :) You were so tiny and snuggly and perfect in every way. I love watching you grow up and seeing how you change. You are the funniest, happiest child I have ever known. You have me rolling on the floor laughing all the time with your funny words and faces. You are a spot of sunshine in my life every single day. I love seeing your cute face and hearing you call for me every morning "Mommy, where ARRRREEE YOUUUU? Ya in the office? Ya in the bathroom"? I love how you like to run, run, run as fast as you can everywhere you go. I love the outfits you pick out for yourself, like the red bandana shirt with the frog boots and lumberjack hat. I love how you are so affectionate and hug and kiss me and tell me you love me all the time. I love that you adore your big brother and want to do everything just like him. I love that you always want to go to work with Daddy and dress like him :) I especially love that you love Jesus and always want to see him and talk to him. You have a big personality and an even bigger heart for such a little boy. I am so proud of you and it makes my heart want to burst when I think of how blessed I am to be your mommy. I love you!

PS - if you want to watch the slideshow, there is music - so hit pause on the playlist on the very bottom of the blog.
