Brothers making pancakes together!

Hockey Player likes food.  He is 12. 
But he has always liked food. 
He has always enjoyed being in the kitchen. 
I  hope I never forget his grand adventure in the kitchen.
"Sugar Pie"  A recipe all his own and make it he did.
Must have been 3 or 4 then.  He has learned a few things over the years.
He has grown up wanting to know how to make the things he likes and things he thinks he might like.
So after 4 or 5 days not being able to orchestrate the meal schedule so he could make the pancakes he was craving. We cleared the evening off and let him get busy!
Flutter Nutter likes food too. 
He likes adding the sweet stuff to the food he likes. 
So after his pancake was ready, Flutter Nutter topped it off...

Daddy's Buddy Turns Eight!

February is Daddy's Buddy's Birthday month.

This year, much to my relief, his birthday went off without much hubaloo.

No sickness, no hospitalization, no drama!

Woohoo!

It was Super Bowl Sunday, so we did have to do some strategizing to get all the celebrating done.

In my husband's family, noone cancels Super Bowl, not even for a birthday.

Good thing he wasn't born on a Super Bowl Sunday!

Warm cozy from Aunt Shell

 Super Fun books for reading while curled up with his cozy from

Colorado family.

Flashlight for camp this summer from Big Bro and Big Sis

Star Wars Legos

Remote Control Hummer

He read the packaging on everything. 

Kind of nice for taking pictures,

lots of stillness in his body while he studied and absorbed the fullness of each gift.

Flutter Nutter is my Sunbeam for my heart but he doesn't take the wrinkles out of my clothes!

My iron met an early death this past week. 

Knocked over and dropped one time too many.

I ran to the store and brought this beauty back.

Flutter Nutter walked in while I was ironing.

He noticed right away and said,

"You got a NEW iron!"

"I like the blue and gray. 

It is Stylish!"

Stylish?  Where did that come from? 
This kiddo of mine is going to make some woman very happy one day. 
I know, cause he brought a huge smile to my face and laughter to my heart.

He's one special guy.
