2 Years!

I cannot believe this little guy is 2 years old.  I used to hear moms saying things like "they grow up so fast" etc.  But I find myself getting sad, when I think that one day this little guy MIGHT move out...of course he is welcome to live with Mommy for the rest of his life as far as I'm concerned:)  ( I know, I know...I won't be singing the same tune when he's a teenager:)



Clif and I were talking and we both think that Cameron is at such a fun age!  He cracks me up constantly.  He will repeat anything you say and he is also becoming a little bit easier to reason with.  For instance, consider this conversation while we were driving in the car.
Cameron:  "Mommy, cat?" ( wanting to see the cat app on my iphone)
Me: "How about we look at the cat when we get to the house?"
Cameron: "OK!!" (smiling from ear to ear in the backseat)
....2 seconds later
Cameron: "Mommy, cat?" 
Me: "When we get to the house OK?"
Cameron: "House!! OK!!"

It was that easy!! Of course, most things are not this easy...like nap time, or not being able to play with his trains...but I love that he is beginning to understand a FEW things..

Happy happy birthday little wild man!!

It's Fall!

I love fall! It is probably my favorite season!  The ridiculously hot weather eases, pumpkin flavors abound and football is everywhere.  I was browsing around pinterest for fall ideas and came across this luminary idea..
So...I decided to give it a try...here is the finished product on my mantle

I think it turned out great!  However, I thought this would be a super easy project.  Hot glue did not work against the glass so I went to Hobby Lobby and bought glass adhesive which worked much better.

I'm loving my fall-ish mantle!
