Dear Santa,

Hi it's me, James. Still itty bitty this year. I'm as skinny as ever but growing everyday. :)

I've been a good boy this year. Yes I've had a few tantrums but what two year old doesn't plus I am STILL getting my two year old molars. They are a PAIN! I give mommy lovin's and hugs and kisses. I make mommy smile. I'm nice to my brother we play and have fun together. I do miss him though when he's at school.

A few things I'd like to tell you about: a guitar, a train set, some CARS toys would be nice.

Well I gotta get mommy to change me.

Thanks and Blessings,
James C.

Favorite Movie!

Is Open Season with Martin Lawrence and Ashton Kutcher. Here's some video(s) as to why it is his favorite now. LOL



I love making him laugh. I'll have to go to the website and get some apparel and stuff toys of Boog and Elliot, although he still likes McQueen and Mater so all is still good with some of his bedding.

Two Year Photos

We went to Sears this morning, he did alright but man when he's done he's done!! PERIOD. End of story.

Birthday Boy!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG BOY!! Two years ago today at 10:30pm you had finally arrived, I know I'm writing this an hour later than I should've but I was getting it all ready.

Anyway, daddy and I were in the hospital that night going through baby name books to come up with a name. We keep spouting off names to see if they fit and nothing would fit so we decided to sleep on it and then that next morning daddy popped off with James Ryan and it just stuck. You felt like a James just looking at you for the first time.

From this bulbous nose tiny little thing,

to this BLONDE HAIR BLUE EYED BOY!

He had A LOT of fun!! We did presents, he received a McQueen Pillow Book, Guitar just right for his size, some trucks, Dinoco McQueen Shake-n-Go racer, hot wheels, clothes and a 4-wheeler power wheel.


Here is the cake Daddy decorated.
Mommy helping blow out the candle.

Opening presents, although he would open then want to play with it and not bother the other gifts. LOL It was funny to watch.

Birthday Party Saturday!

Story and pics will follow, and then monday he'll be TWO. WOW Really already! ARGH

Two Years Ago

James was still in my belly. I miss those little kicks and punches yanno. I feel ready for another but I know we aren't ready financially. So here's to hoping that the Eleventh, James has a nice party.

We already have bought him some clothes, hot wheel cars, and a movie. We are also getting him a power wheel but haven't quite decided on which one to get him. Either the Ford Mustang, another John Deere, or a truck. Daddy is probably at his parents house figuring that out, hopefully.

I'm really glad though that I didn't have him on Halloween. My due date was the 28th and well two early is pretty fine with me, becuase after 37wks they are able to breathe on their own.

Anyway sorry got off track. LOL He is going to be a Bite Size Count for Halloween. Pictures will come afterwards.

Crazy how time flies when you have more than one child. I swear it felt like it was going so slow with Connor, his brother and now it's just zooming by.

I just had to get that out.

Wordless Wednesday Edition 9.24

Not sure what went through his head. LOL He has always aimed to make me laugh.

Day 4 of Weaning

It's hard but I check this morning and there IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN THEM!! So he HAS been nursing for comfort and sleep. Well not anymore, he'll be 2 in a little over a month and it's time to stop.
I just need to be stronger and keep telling him no and either just play with him when he's not overly tired or put him to sleep.

Yanno, I'm not feeling sad about YET. We still have cuddle time but it's not like when he would just sit still on my lap and nurse. I had to lay him in his bed that is no longer a crib now, and he fell asleep on his own after crying and fussin' for a few minutes.

I think I'm doing well with the weaning. I kind of hit him with a double whammy though, Bubby going to school and weaning. NOT COOL in his book at the moment, but it's for the best. I'm ready for my boobies to be mine.

Well he's up from his nap but I don't think he's ready to be awake yet. LOL

OMG Funny Boy!!

He is too funny! When I go to change his diaper he'll say "EEEEWWWWW I POOPPYY." It is hilarious!! He facial expression is priceless. Then when I see him pushing I ask "Are you pooping?" and he tells me "NO." How more cutier can he get.

I swear almost 21months old and his vocabulary is getting so much bigger, FINALLY!! We never went for his 18month check up for one it wasn't needed b.c he wasn't getting shots, two well that's a finacial reason.

Here are some recent pictures:

Crazy things happen!!

Yes, LOL James' first time with a lite brite and can already put the pegs in the board at 20/21months old. CRAZY UH?! Time flies especially when you're not looking. I taped this while sitting for a friend while she was out having her womanly appointment. Needless to say everytime we go over there they have a blast, she does have two girls that are about their ages plus a third that just turned 1 back in April. I just love how his mind has grown so much w.o being in daycare like his brother was for 15months. So really no matter where you put them they'll learn this stuff at their own pace period.

Friday's Foto Finish Fiesta(Saturday)

He needed a trim, it was getting really long and this was my first, yes first attempt at cutting his hair. He was such a wiggle worm, he hating feeling the scissors on his hair, but it all grows back. LOL :) I just hope it doesn't look bad when he goes for his 2 year photos.

U can check out Candid Carrie for more fun photo's and reads.

My James baby needed another trim.

before


after


I know it's a little crooked but what do u expect when u have a boy the moves his head every time he feels the scissors come down. His brother didn't have a single problem. I just hope James will over come this otherwise I don't know what I'll do when his hair gets really really long. LOL

Not a good nite...

not sure why but man he did not sleep well at all... the only way he did sleep was in bed with me. I'm wondering now if maybe it was b.c he was just too hot.. which I'm not sure why b.c the AC is on. I figured he had gotten cold so I put a different set of PJ's on him.. nope that wasn't it. so he just slept in the bed with me which was fine until after I got DS1 into his own bed. I also think it was b.c he didn't have HIS blankie. There's a special blue furry blanket that he just absolutely loves, I only get to wash it once a month when he's not looking. It's funny how so attached they get to something so early. Once I found that blanket he finally settled down and fell back to sleep. Thank god, b.c it was going on 4am.. now way. needless to say we didn't get out of bed till a little after nine. Which was completely fine by me. :) sleeping in is wonders.

Played hard at GamGam's

and now it's time for a bath.... but pics first or while in the tub.
