Must See Movie

It's a quarter til 8:00 in the morning.  I'm already showered and dressed.  AND I'm still waiting for the little guy to wake up!  He's been sleeping through the night the last few nights (FINALLY).  I feel completely rested.  I'm feeling completely content which is an amazing feeling, especially since the last week I've felt like an emotional wreck.

ANYWAY, I just wanted to create a post about a movie we watched the other day that I just fell in love with.  It was so competely sweet, endearing, quircky, and so funny.  There were moments when Kyle and I were busting up laughing and moments I couldn't help but sighing and saying "awwww".  It's rated PG-13, but has very very little inappropriate content in it.  You seriously need to rent it or check it out from your local library (that's what we did).  It was made in 2007, so you probably won't be able to get it at the RedBox.  Here is the movie and a little summary of it:




In this comedy, Lars Lindstrom (Ryan Gosslin, The Notebook) is an awkwardly shy young man in a small northern town who finally brings home the girl of his dreams to his brother and sister-in-law's home. The only problem is that she's not real - she's a doll Lars ordered off the Internet. Lars has a delusional yet deep, meaningful relationship with his new girlfriend. His sister-in-law is worried for him, his brother thinks he's nuts, but eventually the entire town goes along with his delusion in support of this sweet natured boy that they've always loved.

More of Leon

Here are some more pics from the last few months of Leon.  The are ordered from most recent to oldest.

These are actually from today.  I found him in this box and I don't know how he got in it.  His hair is getting so long and crazy.


This is from today too...I just thought his expression was super funny!


Playing in his tunnel.  He got it for Christmas.


Sometimes he likes to eat like this:


Dreaming.  He looked so cozy.


Wearing Daddy's tie.


He loved to stand on this chair and reach FAAAAR over to try to get the Christmas tree ornaments.


He also loves to look at the big living room windows (and play with the long curtains).  I love how blue you tell his eyes are in these pics.


He also loves the DVD chest.


More looking out the window:



Read his shirt.  I do, I can't help myself!



Everyday I realize how much I love this little guy.  He is such a blessing to me.

Birthday Boredom

My 24th birthday was just a few days ago.  Of course it snowed ALOT and we got stuck inside.  There wasn't much to do, so I got the good ole camera out - and now I have lots of editing to do.  Here are some ones of Leon and I.  He was being a super sweetie for my birthday which was a great presesnt.  It was all just for the fun of it. 


Despite being snowed in, I did have a lovely birthday.  I went shopping with my friend, Shayla, the night before and got lots of cute tops.  Kyle and Leon got me a subscription to Better Homes and Gardens.  We had Pizza Hut for dinner.  My mother-and-law made me my favorite cake - chocolate with fudge chocolate icing.  I spent the day relaxing, reading, playing with my little guy, and not doing ANY chores.

More (and I mean A LOT more) pics of the little guy will be coming soon!
