Happy Turkey Day!

Thanksgiving is a day for reflecting on all the blessings we have been given. And I have been given many. Not a day goes by that I am not thankful for my wonderful and healthy family, fabulous friends, and everything else God has shared with me. Please know how thankful I am to to be able share these smiles with you.

Happy 30th Birthday Auntie Susan!

Mama I'm a Big Girl Now

And now she sits up...

Can I Get A Clorox Wipe?

Picture it...the bathroom at the Wonder house.

Boy Wonder: Mom, I need some help in here.
Mama: What happened?
Boy Wonder: I was aiming straight down, but it went straight out instead.
Mama: (Sighing while examining the damage)
Boy Wonder: So I peed allover the toilet. Sorry mom (patting Mama on the back), sometimes its hard to aim.

Sit Back Relax, and Enjoy the Show

Recently Boy Wonder went to his first movie. As he settled into his seat to watch Madagascar 2 he looked so old. He looked like such a little man as he intently watched the movie and occasionally asking me to pass the popcorn. When the movie ended and the lights came up, the red fruit punch he dribbled down the front of his white shirt was a nice reminder that he is still my little boy and there are so many memories we have yet to make in our story.

First It Was Shoes, Now It's Hats

The First Snowfall

You should have seen Boy Wonder's face when he looked outside and saw the snow. The look for excitement was quickly followed by "Does this mean we can go snowboarding today?"

Happy Anniversary

Happy Anniversary to Grandma and Grandpa Wonder. On 11-11-08 they celebrated 36yrs of wedded bliss. Can you believe it has been long? What are the secrets? Thanks for being an inspiration to Mama Wonder and myself. We look forward to celebrating many, many more with you.

6 Months

Can it already be a half a year since Baby Wonder came into our family? She is rolling and scouching all over the place. She watches Boy Wonder with sheer awe, and follows his every move, and laughs at everything he does.

The baby who slept all the time for the first three months is now the same baby who is starting to wake up during the night and wanting to play. The other night she was smiling and rocking up on her hands and knees. When do babies learn to tell time and recognize that it is 2am?!

She has started eating veggies and can't get enough of them. At her well baby visit last week she weighed 17 lbs (75% percentile) and is 26.75 inches (85% percentile).

The past six months have been so much fun watching her. I know that she is going to change even more in the next six months, and while I am excited for that, I hope that changes of the crawling/walking/running kind don't happen for a while.

Happy Halloween, Just a Week Late

Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday to Back Seat Boy who is 2 years old! It has been so fun watching you grow.

The Wonder's would also like to say happy birthday to Grandma Sharon! Like only gets better.

He's Too Cool For Me

Tonight I was singing and Boy Wonder said "Please don't sing. See that sign (pointing to an imaginary sign). It says no singing allowed. Thanks mom for not singing."

As a side note Boy Wonder and Papa are playing Go Fish with animal cards. I just heard Boy Wonder ask Papa Wonder if he has crabs. Ha Ha Ha.

The Post That I Come Clean

I usually have my camera all the time. I love pictures to relive memories and to mark the changes that happen as life moves on. This past week the unthinkable happened. Friday was Halloween. Baby Wonder's first Halloween to be exact. And I hardly got any pictures.

Papa Wonder did take one picture of Baby and one of Boy that I will post as soon as I can. I am trying to get a few more pictures from a friend. Otherwise, the little pea pod and the hockey player will be making another appearance at the Wonder house for a photo opportunity.
