Another year

I really can't believe that Milo is turning two on Saturday. It seems like time is certainly flying by.

We went shopping today for his birthday. Cole and I bought him a bike and two outfits. We found a lady that will make him a train birthday cake, her daughter works with Cole, so that's always good. Milo and I hit the party store and the Dollar Store to finish up with plates, streamers, ect. He loves trains, so that's the theme this year.

I am, however, disappointed in the weather. BOO!!! I've been watching for two weeks now. For a long time, they were predicting a great day in the 70's. But now, mid-60's and rain. That's what happened last year! So now the question is....hotdogs and hamburgers or pizza? Thankfully, it's not going to be as crowded as last year as not as many invites went out, but still! Our yard is soooo beautiful and healthy this year, it would be great for the kiddos to run around on.

Side note: They just opened at Chucky Cheese in Layton by us. Guess that could be an alternative for next year.

So, yes...Happy Birthday Milo! You are the greatest gift I've ever received! Love you! :)

Milo's boots

So, for awhile now, I've been wanting to get Milo his first pair of cowboy boots. I just love lil' kids in boots for some reason, cracks me up. And of course, Cole holds ever so dearly to his "hick" roots. So, we've been looking for some, but could never find what we wanted within a reasonable price range.

A cramp in the leg prompted me to do some walking, so why not walk in the mall? I wanted to stop by Bath and Body Works to see if a new scent had come in for my cousin who is so far away. So, after visiting there and getting Milo a new blue ducky for the bath tub, we kept walking. I forgot there was a Payless Shoe Store there, so we went in...and there they were...size 7 in toddler. A bit big, but boots run small, yes?

I took them down, took off Milo's shoes, and put them on. He was hooked! Got out of his stroller, ran all over the place, threw a fit when I tried to take them off. And who can turn down a Buy One Get One Half Off sale? So he got a new pair of sneakers too.

So, yeah, the boots, he loves 'em. Kept them on the whole day. I just hope I can keep them off of him when he wants to wear them with shorts...LOL!
