I am sick of messes!!! That is all.

Sullivan's first time fishing!

On Sunday we took Sullivan fishing with my parents and sisters. It was a good time and soo peaceful! Sullivan really enjoyed exploring grandpa's farm!

Big Blues

I think one of Shane and I's best features are our eyes. I've always had a thing for blue eyes and apparently he did too. With some help from the gene pool Sullivan was blessed with blue eyes too! We have gotten many compliments on his pretty blue eyes and of course I think they are exquisite!

The funny thing is when we were searching for boy's names Shane and I kept going back to the name Sullivan. I of course had to check out the meaning and it is keen eyes. It is these little things that remind me that God is in control and has a purpose for everything, especially if he had time to fit a name with one of his children. Anyways, enjoy my baby's blues!

Father's day pic a couple months late

For father's day I wanted to get Sullivan all dressed like a big boy and wearing Shane's tie and maybe shoes. I tried and tried to get that pic in the weeks before father's day with no luck. Yesterday I figured I'd try it again since I'd found this adorable hat for .97 cents at Baby Gap. Although the cooperation didn't last very long I did get a couple of good ones. And to Shane "Happy Father's day two months late!"

My big helper

Sullivan has always been fascinated by household objects, but one in particular! After I finish vaccuming I let him do it with it turned off of course. His helpfulness has extended into other areas now. He likes to dust, take things out of the dishwasher, and is learning to put his toys away. I'm glad for his helpful attitude and can only hope it continues throughout childhood even though I'm sure it won't. :)

Sundays at the Mill- My boys

When Shane was little he always used to go to the mill in Lynnville and would fish for carp in his Sunday best. I've driven by the mill many times but never stopped, but had the chance this past Sunday. We went to the Linden House (VERY YUMMY) for brunch in celebration of my dad and Shane's birthday. The Linden House is right next to the mill. Shane and Sullivan did a little exploring and Shane got to share a bit of his childhood with Sullivan (I love those moments!). Here are a few pics! Both of my boys have their fake smiles on (I'm guessing the thoughts going through their heads are something like this "why can't we have a nice moment where she doesn't take a picture?" To this I say "Sorry boys, get used to it we have many more moments to capture!!"

Happy Birthday Shane!

Yesterday we celebrated Shane's birthday. We didn't do anything over the top but enjoyed some quiet family time. Sullivan with the help of his aunties wrote birthday greetings on the driveway, I made a vanilla cake with strawberry mousse filling, and we went to George's for dinner. Shane ended his day by reading books to Sullivan! Here are a few pics! Shane and Sullivan being silly

Reading books together Eating cake! Sullivan made a bigger mess with Shane's cake than he did with his own!

It wasn't pretty but tasted good!

Love you Shane!
