Oh my little Roman...






This sweet child came into this life with no idea of how much he'd be loved! He has love oozing from everywhere; mom, dad, grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, cousins and so many others! I saw this picture of him today and got giddy inside. Even with some not so pleasant experiences in his short 10 months of life, he always has a smile on his face! I know that I do what I feel is best for him, regardless of what anyone else thinks and would do anything in this world to keep him safe. After all, what would I do if I didn't have his charming self tugging on my leg and rubbing snot on my shirt?!







While working in the salon clear until I was past my due date, I saw lots of clients who had a lot to say about motherhood. Some said it was great but lots had negative things to say about it too! Really, even through the sleep deprivation, lifestyle change, dirty diapers, and long nights in the hospital, I really don't have anything bad to say about it! How could I? I get to see things like him taking his first steps!

Some say it's annoying when people can't stop talking about their kids. Being a mom I now know why!
Children: What an incredible thing.

Get Well...

I tried my luck at cake decorating during enrichment. (Yes. I really went for once!)
& it actually turned out! My boys haven't been feeling 100% so I dedicated it to them. Roman has had a fever and sore throat and Todd broke his ankle on Saturday.

Todd hurt it helping our friends move but if you ask him, he'll usually tell you a different story of some macho way he broke it. Kinda like last time he was hurt. I think I heard him tell people it was a motorcycling accident, braving a bear, got in a fight but you should see the other guy...

He thought it might have been okay, but finally Monday, he went to the doc and sure enough, it's an avulsion fracture with some partially torn ligaments. Diagnosis resulting in: a big ol' boot for 4 weeks then they'll check again to determine whether he'll need it on for another 2-4 weeks or possibly do surgery (most likely not). He's mainly bummed about not being able to snowboard! He can't wait to get the ok from the doc. Hopefully he won't be out all season.

Check out Gentry's cake too. She made her own designs out of the fondant and it turned out so cute!
