Hip Hip Hooray!!

Three cheers for B-man! He has successfully (exceptionally) completed all of his classes! In May he will receive his diploma for a Master of Science in Operations Management from the University of Arkansas. B, we're so proud of you! You've worked so hard these past 18 months and set the standard in all of your classes. You impressed not only your family, but your professors and classmates too. We love you so much! Now...relax!! :)

Happy First Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Lil Boo!!! I just can't believe our little guy is now ONE!! It's been an exciting year, for sure here in Fayetteville. We love our little guy even more now! Is that even possible?? BeBe and Aunt R were able to fly out here for the occasion. We had a farm themed birthday party here on Saturday and had a great time. Aunt R described it as a "wild party"! hahaha! Here are some photos and videos to mark this momentous occasion.

Then...

...and now

Dressed in our party clothes!

He really enjoyed the balloons!

Party display!

I made these cakes for Boo's party. I think they turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself!

Boo did not like the cake. At.all.

Opening presents. Lots of good toys! Thanks everyone!

A farm party wouldn't be complete without his first tractor!!

Playing with the balloons!

Birthday Song and Boo's friend AR enjoying the cake!

Early video. Look at how much he's changed! Wow!

These are the photos we took each month this year.

Happy Birthday to our beautiful boy! And a huge thanks to BeBe and Aunt R for all of your help. We really couldn't have pulled it off without you! So glad you were able to share this special time with us.

Kutting Crew

Well, it was time for Lil Boo to get another haircut and we thought we'd try going to the barber shop. I heard about this place down the street, Kutting Crew, that had an airplane chair for the little ones. So we made an appointment and off we went! We armed him with a toothbrush in one hand (he LOVES to hold his toothbrush) and food in the other. They also had a DVD player in front of him so he could watch a show. We got off to a rough start but ended on a good note. He even made a new friend with the stylist. But, he just wouldn't stay still. S0, upon closer inspection today, I see that his haircut is really crooked in the back and the front. Oh well...it will grow.

"Mom, I don't want to fly in this airplane!"

Enjoying his in flight snack!

You can't see his other hand holding on to his toothbrush.

"Hey, I think I can fly this thing home!"

Isn't that airplane chair just the coolest? Unfortunately, the seat doesn't have a strap. So, we had to keep a close hand on him so he wouldn't jump out of a perfectly good airplane!

Valentine's Day and Anniversary

Boo celebrated his first Valentine's Day yesterday. He was such a good Valentine and was rewarded with a huge heart shaped cookie!! Yummy! He also got a Valentine bear for being so sweet. B-man and Boo Bear are the best Valentines a girl could have!! I'm so lucky!

Wild Thing!

Mom, this cookie is yummy!!

Yesterday was V-Day and today is our wedding anniversary! It's been six years now! Can you believe that? B, you're a great man, an awesome husband and a wonderful father to Lil Boo. I just love watching you and him play together. Thanks for everything you do (read...putting up with me) for our family! I love you!
