Next comes the baby in the baby carriage!

Getting ready for baby!

Kevin was great while I was pregnant. Running out to get me powdered sugar doughnuts, Nutterbutter cookies, and 100 grand bars. He also made me yummy meals! Here is one~
a crab salad sandwich and fruit!

And he brought me flowers, aren't they pretty?

And here he is! Nova was born in April of 2006. When they first put him in my arms, he looked right up at me... and I was just amazed. He is such a sweet little boy.

Who does he look like? We think he's a good mix!

Here he is at about 6 months. I took these pics on our bed set up with velvet and a sheep skin rug. He wet on the rug of course, I guess my photo shoot was just too long!

This was taken the same day, after changing out the rug for a dry one and putting on a little vintage blue bubble outfit with embroidered trains. The drool on the collar adds a nice tough, eh?

Here's our little buckaroo at a year old!

I made his "Wanted" poster birthday party invitations~We had a cowboy party with all the fixin's! We served beef brisket and my mom made a cowboy hat cake.

Then before we knew it he turned TWO! That year Bear in the Big Blue House was his fave. We borrowed a Bear suit and my brother wore it, what a hoot! My mom made an awesome cake once again, will share pics of her cakes soon!

These are the only "professional" pics we've had taken so far. I took him to Walmart and had to argue with the gal to use this first backdrop. I had several changes of clothes and all the backdrops picked out. The photographer did a great job. After the pics came in she wanted to use them in a contest, ha! We have these in sepia as well.

Now all of a sudden he is three. Unbelievable! Where does the time go? We recently celebrated with Toy Story. I always make little shirts to go with the theme. These had the whole Toy Story gang on them, with "You've Got A Friend In Me" written on the bottom, along with my son and nephew's names written on "Etch" -a-sketch. The red hat fits him better now!

He got Woody and Buzz Lightyear for his birthday. I thought Buzz would win out... but Woody is the fave! He was really tuckered out from his big day~
