Happy Birthday!

Today is my mom's birthday! 

Happy Birthday Mom!

My sister and her family, along with my family all piled into mom's house yesterday to celebrate.  Of course mom cooked her own birthday dinner.  She made lasagna, which was delicious by the way, and also made all the kids Valentine's treats!

I need to do a better job of getting at least one picture of every one at a party.  I managed to capture the majority of the party guests this time.  Missing are my sister, brother-in-law, step dad and myself of course!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Thanks for all that you do. 

We love you whole bunches!

Pey-Pey playing in her bath water.

I'm not really sure what this face was about.

I like this one a little better!

And if this doesn't make you smile, you might want to see a doc.  There could be something wrong!

Just teasing.  ; )  I'm sure you are perfect. 

But smile anyway.  Studies show that it's good for your health.  : )

Hey Drew!

This is the normal sequence of events when I have a camera to my face and I say "Hey Drew!"

Step 1.  "Huh" as he looks at me.

Step 2.  Dodge and yell "Stop it Mom!"

Step 3.  Hide from the camera and saying "Go away Mom."

PS  I'm not quite sure why he is reading the sports page on his hands and knees. 

He's weird!  : ) 

But I love him anyway.

Drew & Brodey playing Battleship while we watched Toy Story 3.  I was thinking I was being very nonchalant about taking this picture.  But obviously Brodey caught me.  In case you didn't know, that look means "Really Mom.  You're taking a picture of this too."

PS  Yes Brodey's wardrobe is a little conflict of interest.  He has a Bengals shirt on and a Colts sleeping cap.  Bengals are his first love.  But he also loves Peyton and the Colts!  Peyton Manning that is.  Although, I think he is pretty fond of Peyton Mitchell too.

I don't know what it is about this hat.  But someone always has it on around here.  I have pictures of Brodey, Cooper and Peyton in this hat.  It was originally part of Brodey's Halloween costume.  He dressed up as Slash!  I have pictures of Peyton that I will post in the Slash wig!

I was cleaning out some boxes the other day with some of Drew and Brodey's old clothes, that I had saved for Cooper, and came across these little old man pajamas.  They use to be Drew's when he was little.  Cooper is very picky about his clothes and will only wear a small assortment of things.  So I never dreamed he would wear these PJ's.  But he loved them and wore them all weekend.  He was such a good boy all weekend that I told him these jammies must have magical powers!  Then he put the Transformers jammies back on and all was back to normal.

She is my sunshine...

Peyton and Daddy's song is Itsy Bitsy Spider.

Peyton and Mommy's song is Your Are My Sunshine.

She crawls up in my lap and says "Sing Mommy!"

We sing Rock A Bye Baby,

You Are My Sunshine,

Jesus Loves Me, and

Jesus Loves the Little Children.

But her favorite is Sunshine (as she calls it).

She truly is my Sunshine.

I great big giant heart her!

PS  Just so you know, this picture was taken on Monday night.  The second day that she wore this outfit.  Not the third day!  :o)
