AHOY

Dane thinks he's a pirate. Not sure where that came from, but it's so cute! and yeah, He's getting ready to pick his nose at the end of this clip. If Dane's finger isn't in his nose, something's wrong.

Getting things ready for his 2nd birthday party today. My beautiful nieces Cat and Mari are coming over this morning to help me decorate and entertain Dane while some last minute cleaning is happening.

It's so bitter-sweet to think he's a little boy and not a baby anymore. Can't wait to see his reaction when he wakes up from his nap and all the decorations are up and cupcakes decorated, he's gonna be so surprised!

Downtown North Pole

Friday night we headed to downtown Bellefontaine to see the North Pole. It was alittle lack luster to say the least. We thought he'd get to see Santa, but instead he saw Mrs. Claus. Yeah, that's right, Santa wasn't there, only his wife. That's ok, she was really friendly. He did get to decorate a sugar cookie with sprinkles afterwards, he really liked that. They also had a reindeer, a horse drawn carriage, and a live nativity scene.

Here's Dane with Mrs. Claus

We met up with Sean, Jen, Taylor and Lincoln and then went to dinner afterwards. If you look at Dane's hands, you'll notice that he has one brown glove and one gray one. Somewhere between the house and Bellefontaine (10miles) Dane lost his other gray glove. We stripped that car down looking for the other glove with no luck. Weird that I happened to have one brown glove in my purse :)

Bucket Head

Dane decided the bed of his dump truck is a helmet and was wearing it around the house last night and again this morning. He's so silly.

People might be curious about my broken camera since I'm still posting pictures. It works, I just have to remember to hold the flash up with my finger before I take a picture. It's alittle irritating but it does work and we wanted to do alittle research on new camera's before we bought another one. We know which one we want now, it's just a matter of letting go of the money. I fell in love with the Canon SX20.

Beach Boy

Dane informed me that he was going to go get his "beach" hat. We've never taken him to the beach before so I wasn't even sure he knew what a beach was. Apparently he does. He also insisted on finding his sunglasses to wear to the beach. I think he may be on to something though, I would love to headed to a beach somewhere!!
