Ms. Patty

L goes to a babysitter everyday.  Ms. Patty and her daughter Ms. Kristina watch a total of 8-9 kids including Lawson everyday.  We are so happy that L is in a place that he loves and most of all, he is in a Christian home with babysitters who LOVE Lawson!  Ms. Patty had a little "Birthday lunch" for Lawson.  Here are a few pictures of Lawson on his birthday and everyone having a good time and celebrating L on his big day!

Lawson's Turns One

Can't believe that Lawson has already gotten so big.  I am already reminiscent of his infant days, but I am so in love with this little boy who can say "Momma, Dada, ball, oh no!, JoJo (for dog), thank you, and welcome" just to name a few.  On the day of L's first birthday, he had to go to Ms. Patty's for half a day.  He had a party there and then his Daddy picked him up and he took a nap to get ready for his family birthday party that evening.  The theme of his party was "Mickey Mouse."  You all know that I'm not much for licenced products or party themes, but that's what he was most into.  He loved (and still loves) Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.  We invited his Grandpa and Grandma Shores, Poppie and Mimi, Aunt Lyndsey and Camden, PawPaw and Gigi, UJ and AA, and Uncle Jordan and Aunt Nikki.  We had "hot diggity dogs" and bbq.  After we ate, we opened presents.  When I say "we" I am speaking of Adam and I.  You all should know that I really do not like opening presents.  I don't really like all the attention on me, it makes me nervous.  Also, a fluffy girl sitting in the floor is no fun thing to even look at.  Needless to say, this was not my favorite part of the night.  Lawson loved it though, and we have such a great family who really spoiled L with wonderful gifts!  After presents, it was time for cake!  L had a small Mickey Mouse cake.  The icing on it was blue and black and it was all over him.  He would take a bite and then say "mmmmmmm."  He loves chocolate cake as much as his Daddy!  It was a wonderful night, and I really appreciate everyone coming to help us celebrate L's first year!  It was wonderful, I'm not really sure how it could get any better than this...

Sleepover with Cousin Camden

Lyndsey called one day while I was at school and was very sick, so that meant sleepover :-)  Adam picked up Camden on his way home from work, and we started our fun night.  The boys had dinner and then we headed to the park.  The boys had a ball.  L was still not too solid on his feet, so he got to be in the stroller, and Camden got to run all over the place with Uncle Adam.  Camden loves Adam, so he had a ball!!  The boys favorite part had to be swinging!
