pumpkins

he's been coloring pumpkins, spelling pumpkins, talking about pumpkins and dreaming of pumpkin pie.  and finally he joined his class on a trip to the pumpkin patch!  it's that time of year folks, and ashley broomall & co are simply in heaven.

pure awesomeness

these are my two guys on their first day of school.  they're so handsome and fun and they don't get much airtime on this here blog.  therefore, i must share these sweet smiles with you all.  i had time to snap just one picture as we rushed out the door that morning and i was pleased as punch to see that it captured their very sweetest sides.  i love these little men.  even when they're tearing my house apart with their killer wrestling moves.

happy almost-hump-day!

a good six years.

it's hard to believe that i have been a mother for six years and one day.  but it's true.  this sweet boy celebrated his sixth birthday yesterday.  we woke up early to pickup fresh donuts for breakfast.  he took his brother and cousin along with him to lunch and a movie.  he has been so anxious to see madagascar 3 and boy did he love it!  all day long he has been repeating "chimichanga!  these pillows are filled with baby birds!"  i laugh hysterically every single time.  we finished off the evening with family, pizza, gifts, cake and ice-cream and some good old fashioned fun outside with his new bike and roller blades.  it was a good day to turn six.  and it's been a good {and by good i do mean awesome} six years.  and i love this boy like crazy!

i think that yesterday i may have come across the world's most photogenic child.  i had such a fun time editing his session, all except for the part where i was stressing over which shots to use.  there were SO many!  i had a great time with this cutie and his momma and am so pleased with the results.  have a little look for yourself, and i dare you to not get lost in those beautiful eyes!
