Future FSU Seminole?!

Is this a future Florida State Seminole?! Possibly a FSU quarterback?! I received this outfit from one of my FSU alum friends when Michael was a baby. (Lauren Skipper perhaps? Or maybe Heather Malone? Sorry girls but I can't remember!) It was fun putting Justin into this same outfit...we are just getting ready early for the FSU football season!

Sweet Toes & Chubby Ankles

Oh, I just couldn't help but take a picture of Justin's sweet little curled up toes and his chubby chubster ankles! They grow so fast...pretty soon he'll be walking on these little "midget digits/chub stubs". (Sound familiar anyone?)

Jumpin' Off The Diving Board

These pictures were taken 4th of July - Michael got brave enough to sit on the diving board and jump to me. But I'd still catch him in plenty of time ... his face wouldn't even get wet! I think the next time I'll let him go under a bit more... :)

Little Man

Here is our little man, Justin Matthew...pic taken on 4th of July. There is just something...I can't quite put my finger on it, but he reminds me of my Grandma Marian (Olson). Is it the mouth? The chin? Both? I'm not the only one to think this either...my brother Kyle and my Aunt Karen have both said it too. Funny...my little man taking after his dear sweet great grandma. We are blessed.

4th of July @ The Auntie's Block

We spent the 4th of July enjoying Auntie Diane's pool (best place to be considering it was 90 degrees out!) It was a fun time and Michael got to swim, swim, swim! Here he is with Cousin Keala enjoying the pool.

Cute little story...Michael was sitting on a floating chair in the pool and throwing "rocket ships" so that Keala had to go retrieve them underwater. Keala said "Now Michael while I'm going under the water what are you going to do?" (She thought he'd say "Sit still, be careful.") Oh, no..instead says "Sit here and keep my mouth shut."!! HILARIOUS! You'd think he heard that while we were upset with him but no...we tell him to keep his mouth shut if he goes under the water!!! Too cute. :)

I'm Three Months Old!

Justin Matthew turned three months old on June 24th. I don't think three months has ever gone by so quickly?!

Here is Justin presumably thinking "Mommy, get that thing out of my face...you are scaring me." Ha!

Cute outfit courtesy of Auntie Sara in Florida - it's a little surfer boy get up...ahhhh how I miss my Florida girlfriends.

Me & My Boys

It's not often that I get out from behind the camera lens and have pictures taken of me and my boys...so needless to say, I was thrilled that these got taken and turned out pretty good! :)

Me & My Boys...just hangin' out - pictures taken Thursday, June 21st.

Handsome - Just Like Daddy

Aren't these the cutest pj's?! I got them from Old Navy and just love them. Justin Matthew...just as handsome as his Daddy. (Even with his little pointed ear that I lovingly refer to as his "Spock Ear".)

Michael is THREE!

Michael James turned 3 years old on June 18th. He is getting to be such a big boy. Pictures show him having fun helping Daddy mow the lawn. I wonder if the bubbles from his mower really help cut the grass?! :)

(fyi: June 18th happens to be the same day that Julia Roberts had her little boy and Tiger Woods had his baby girl! Ok, yes, I read People.)

Happy Father's Day

We had a wonderful Father's Day today! We got to see my dad (Papa Jim) and spend a little time with him. The picture was taken over at Kay & Kim Gudmestad's house where Mom and Dad were staying. (I should have gotten Justin in there too but he was busy drinking his bottle.) We also went out for dinner and ice cream tonight...all the while Michael kept saying "Happy Father's Day Daddy!" :)
