FINALLY! A New battery for my camera............

My camera battery died and it took me awhile to identify the problem. Now that I finally have a new battery, my blog will be updated more regularly again! Here is Grant right before bed time tonight with wet hair (just just got out of the bath and into PJ's)!







Dancin Machine

Everytime music comes on the TV or radio Grant breaks into dance.............if you can really call it that! Here is a clip of him dancing with "Dancing with the Stars".

Andrea's Shower

Here is Megan, Andrea, and I at Andrea's baby shower. Meg and I hosted the shower up in Princeton, IL. It was a great shower. To top it off we got to go out to eat at "The Prime Quarter" -- my favorite steakhouse in Northwest IL.

Sara Evans Concert

For those of you who did not know, I recently won tickets/backstage passes to see Sara Evans. I took Courtney with me since she is one my country music loving friends. Here we are at the concert...............

Sara on stage.

Courtney, Sara Evans, Janna -- FYI - she was not overly friendly.

I am a Toddler Now.

The baby years go by so quick,
Before you know it, they are gone in a lick!

Each day that passes they grow so fast,
Those baby moments did hardly last.

Little bundle of tiny joy,
Is now a bundle of toddler boy!

Now you can do so many things,
Now you think you can spread those wings.

You climb on a chair and think you’re cool,
Until you fall and look like a fool.

You throw a fit to get your way,
You throw a fit when you can’t play.

You no longer peacefully go down for a nap,
You now scream, kick, flail, and flap.

The bottle days have been gone for awhile,
My floor, lately, has been a crumb pile.

You think the toilet is a place to play,
And toilet training seems so far away.

My beautiful house will never be the same,
Dents, dings, and damage and you are to blame.

You walk up to strangers on the street.
You’re not scared of them, you don’t miss a beat.

You will run away when I tell you to come here,
You laugh at mom and have no fear.

You think that hitting is a good thing to do,
Getting in trouble is no big deal to you.

I have never in my life seen such a child,
Loving trouble-maker, who is quite wild.

Wondering how I could have such a son,
Sometimes wondering “WHAT HAVE I DONE!”

Realizing you are half mom and half dad,
Maybe after all you are not so bad.
