Happy Second Birthday. MJ!

Today MJ turned 2! Today he went to school to share cupcake treats with his friends, and then mommy and daddy took him to Chuck E. Cheese! What a fun day!

It's so hard to believe that Michael has been in our lives for 2 years. We have enjoyed every moment and milestone that he has reached. He brings so much joy to our lives, that cannot be expressed with words. We can't imagine life without him! Mommy and Daddy love you, Angel!

Picture Day!

Today we ventured out to a new photo studio, called Portrait Innovations. We took Christmas and birthday pictures. They turned out great! The best part is that we took all the pictures home today! No waiting! Can't wait for everyone to see them!

We also visited Santa. Michael kinda smiled goofy, but he didn't cry! Big improvement over last year!

Mommy took today and tomorrow off work to spend time with Michael during his birthday. Daddy might work tomorrow, but we will all be together Saturday for sure for his party! We wish we could invite everyone to come over, but our house can only take so much! LOL!

Michael's vocabulary

It amazes us everyday how well Michael is talking. He is using multiple- word sentences, and adding new ones everyday. This morning daddy went to wake him up, and he rolled over, looked at daddy, and said "Go away, Daddy!" We both cracked up laughing! Then mommy was dressing him, and he said, "Don't 'stand what you talk about!" Translation: I don't understand what your talking about. This one was kinda funny, because we kept thinking we was saying something about Taco Bell. LOL! Then he said "Don't tell me NO!" These are both things we have been saying to him a lot lately. Oh, and he is repeating everything we say. He has even called mommy "Dawn" a couple of times. Whoops! It is definitely a challenge some days to decipher what he is saying, but fun when we do figure it out!

We are looking forward to Thanksgiving. I hope the entire family is able to make it for dinner on Thursday!

A Dallas Wedding

We just returned from Dallas, TX where we attended our cousin Amanda's wedding. She was beautiful, and the wedding was beautiful. The wedding was Saturday, but we decided to fly in a little early, and take in some sites. We went to The Dallas Zoo, The Dallas World Aquarium, and we also visted the Sixth Floor Museum and walked around Dealey Plaza. We left Sunday, after having a lovely breakfast with my aunt & uncle, and some of the other guests from the wedding. Michael was a handful, but I couldn't imagine not having him there.
