Sunny Arizona Photoshoot :)

So we spent 5 days last week in Mesa, Arizona, pretending to be "snowbirds"......or wishing we were.:) The afternoons were so beautiful and warm, so we took advantage of being outside & laying out by the pool in February.
To say that Roman LOVED being outside in only his diaper would be an understatement. This kid was in heaven!

My care-free, blue eyed baby boy!





Ohhh how we wish our stay could have been extended until. . . . April?. . . . or even May? :) Ha!

Happy President's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

We've decided that Arizona is the place to be on Valentine's Day. There's nothing like celebrating the day of love outside in 84 degree weather.:)
But that's a whole other post......so we'll just stick with Valentine stuff for now.

Roman had a great Valentine's Day!
He got lots of great stuff and LOADS of love from all the people that love him.

Grandma & Grandpa Shields showered him with Valentine's love last weekend when we were visiting. We LOVE new books....and animals that match!

Valentine's Day 2011


This is me removing the soggy card so that Romie didn't have a belly full of Hallmark card for lunch.:)

New jammies!!.....just what I always wanted.:)



Romie's Valentine's Day loot. :)

but really. . . . ."All You Need is Love"

I decided to start a tradition of writing Roman a letter every year on Valentine's Day. I read it to him this year and will put it in his keepsake box. It's important to me that he knows how much I love him and I thought Valentine's Day was the perfect holiday to express that to him.

We hope everyone had a Happy Valentine's Day and felt loved by those they love!
Thanks to all of you that made us feel loved!

The 'Hawk' Gets a Trim

Roman's 'hawk' was starting to look a little more crazy than usual so mom decided it was time for a trim. Yikes!

Notice that the front of the hawk was much longer than the back. Weird!!

Check out this handsome boy!:)

Romie's first hair cut was a success. And he still has all of his fingers.:)
