Lawton Bear (as we affectionately call him)

We were just running errands . . . this is a necessary outfit that had to be snapped. :) Firefighter hat, check. Safety goggles, check. Bob the Builder tape measurer, check. LOVE IT! Another trip to the Donut Den . . . Lawton chose the classic kid favorite - SPRINKLES!!!
I always check on Lawton right before I go to bed at night. I peeked in his bedroom and immediately knew that I had to snap this to show Chad the next morning (and to my fave bloggers!) I took several pictures in the pitch dark and he never flinched! I love my little pirate with his Mater underwear and puppy by his side! :)


It's funny how I couldn't get the boy to pose for a picture before Carolina was born. . . All of a sudden he is so willing to jump in front of the camera. Hmmmm. Here are a few cute stories I want to share before I forget.

- We were watching the movie Babe the other day (He had never seen it before). When the narrator came on, he stopped, looked at me with wide eyes and said, "Mommy, that's God." I guess to a three year old, any deep voice when you can't see who is talking is God. :)

-I was at my parent's house spending a couple of nights when Chad was out of town. My mom has a lot of our old toys out for him to play with, so of course there are some dolls there (of which there are none at our house . . . yet). I was feeding Carolina and look over and he has his shirt lifted and the baby doll up against his belly. "Look, Mommy! I'm giving the baby milk from my belly just like you!" I just grinned and replied "You sure are!" I'll let that one go for now. . .
