Ode to BUD


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Two years ago you came into our life weighing 8 pounds, 11 ounces. If I had known the joy you would bring into our life, I probably would have scheduled the induction for a couple of weeks earlier so that you wouldn't be so huge.

Today, you crash the scales somewhere around 28 pounds. You're such a joy... and have such a marvelous smile through that thumb that is constantly in your mouth. You are such a good helper to "Baby" and your sisters adore you. (So does Mom.) I love how you want to give kisses to baby in the morning, and your wonderful hugs. And I even love that you're sitting on my lap waiting patiently for me to put the "Bear Bowling" game on the computer.

Your favorite things are trucks, "Ninnens" (kittens, for those who don't speak LeGrand), Ammon. CHEESE, and being as close to Mom as you can possibly get. All the time. I love you, Bud.
We're celebrating on Sunday, you'll all have to wait for cake pictures until then. Please.

He is so ADORABLE! Can I borrow his eyes for a couple days? :) I too want to have a girls weekend out, I've been talking to Eric at least once a week since the wedding reception, and he's probably sick of hearing about it! We are leaving this Saturday for my family's reunion in CO, then the rest of the month is crazy with possibly moving. BUT we are thinking of sometime in August. I will call you soon to plan an actual date, because honestly... I've got fudge on the brain... oh yeah, and you too. :) Talk to you soon!
