Random July Stuff...

So we took DJ to see Toy Story 3 in the theaters when it came out in June... WE SURVIVED! Before taking him to see it, we got Toy Story 1 on DVD to see if he'd like it... thus far, there was no show or movie that kept DJ's attention for more than 30 seconds.... you can see here, he's kind of passionate about Buzz Lightyear! LOL

Here is DJ watching something... while on his tractor from UncleTrina... WITH the inflatable basketball hoop horizontally in place....????

DJ's 2nd Birthday Party

I bought an Elmo cake pan to make DJ's birthday cake since he LOVED Elmo. He always asks to wear his Elmo shirt and sit in his Elmo chair.
THEN, a few weeks ago, DJ got TOTALLY interested in CARS! I quickly returned the Elmo cake pan and happily ordered the Cars cake... YIPPEE... that I wasn't going to make the cake!
Here is DJ enjoying his cake!
We had some friends over!
Some more friends!
Yippee the cake is half gone!
Olivia and DJ!

Opening presents... thanks everyone!!!
Kids watching DJ open his presents from upstairs... :)

Singing Happy Birthday! DJ LOVED IT!
Happy Birthday Sweet boy... we love you!

DJ's Two!

DJ's birthday started with 'Birthday Cereal"... :) I tried to get him to say 'almost two' again... but he was more interested in taking the camera from me...

Then we went to the waterslide park. DJ goes down the kid slides all by himself right after me... and I wait for him at the bottom. He comes down laughing the whole way. :) HE LOVES IT!
When Don got home from work and DJ woke up from his nap... they assembled a birthday present slide that Grandma Kurtz got for DJ when she was visiting. DJ loves it!
Thanks Grandma Kurtz for the slide!
Weeeee!

Thanks again Grandma Kurtz!

Almost Two!

When DJ and I go out to the store or to eat... or where ever... people have been asking a lot... how old he is. My response is "Almost Two"... So one night DJ was talking about his upcoming birthday party... (he has been to a few and had his own 1st birthday party... but I'm sure he doesn't understand the whole thing very well yet...) But I asked him, "How old are you... something we haven't done with him yet, but he spouts out... "ALMOST TWO!" LOL

My Little Fish...

DJ was slithering around on the carpet while we were watching TV... saying: "swimmin', swimmin'..." I had to get a video of it. HE LOVES SWIMMING! :)

DJ's First Salon Haircut

Don usually cuts DJ's hair at home... but today Don needed to go get a haircut so DJ & I went along... so that DJ could also get a much needed haircut. (See how long it is in the back!)
I didn't know how DJ would be... but he actually did really well! (THANKS to the Tootsie Pops! :)
I LOVE his feet in this picture...
He started getting restless when he finished the tootsie pop, GOOD THING there is a whole bowl full of them...
ALL DONE! BUMMER this is blurry!! :(

Bath Time AGAIN! :)

Can you ever see too many pictures of your kids taking baths...???
I guess there does come a point when the answer to that question is YES!
...but it's been a while and I saw these in my pictures and thought they must go in the blog! ...so here they are! :)
These were taken right after he went swimming in rain water in the lid of his sandbox! :)
