Moments that make a momma smile

So I saw a picture on a friend's facebook and this was my comment to her photo, "Moments that make a momma smile." It got me thinking about how many things Landon does that cause me to grin.

My AC recently decided to stop working in my car thus I had to drive Chad's truck which little man could see me while I was driving. I couldn't help but glance over and when I did, I was greeted with sweet eyes peering in between the handle and shader on the car seat. As soon as our eyes meet - he smiles and I smile.

The funny positions he gets into and the funny faces he makes. Thank goodness for technology for allowing me to capture these moments for laughter and blackmail in the future.

He loves it when it is time to eat. This time however, he was obviously extremely tired thus the reason he fell asleep with food in his mouth.

I love it when he falls asleep in random positions. I almost want to move him because to me it would be uncomfortable but I never move him :)

The smiles we get before bath time melt my heart. He has a grin that lights me up on the inside. A grin that I look forward to seeing on the way home from work.

I could go on for days on things he does that make me smile but you would be reading for days...

Ridiculist

Oh yes - You knew it was coming. Am I surprised by all of this coming to a point? No. I think when you bribe people with bonuses or anything involving money - most will go to the extreme to get it. Bottom line. We live in a money driven society. Just more bad publicity for Atlanta and our schools. I would love to hear thoughts from others on this.

5 Months!?!?!?

Dear Landon,
Last Thursday you turned 5 months old. 5 months. I still don't believe it. So much has changed from 4 months. You are getting more and more comfortable rolling all over the place. You are sitting up now. Took you awhile to catch on but you are doing so well with that now. Your mouth is like a water park. The teething process began at 4 months and ever since then we just can't seem to keep you dry. You have certainly figured out how to make noises :) You like to make the motorboat sound with your lips and your slobber goes everywhere when you do it. You like to yelp out and see how loud you can get. You like for me to mock your noises. It makes you laugh. You love to laugh. You like to watch me drive in the car in the mornings. I can see you out of the corner of my eye leaning up to see over your car seat. Once I glance you smile :) Your smile melts my heart baby boy. You are not a fan of laying on your back now that you know you can sit up. Your temper flares in the tub when I have to lean you up to wash your back and then lay you back down...You get so mad. I can't help but giggle. You love squash and sweet potatoes :) We invested in the bumpo seat for you and your thunder thighs barely fit!! You are such a joy to your daddy and I. I can't wait to get home to get my hands on you. We love you little man. Try to slow down just a little for me :(

Love you,
Mom and Dad
