My efforts are futile.

I finally get my blog going, and I'm finally excited about posting my pictures, and what happens?  I leave my camera at Ally's house during our play date.  Oh well.  It just gives me an excuse for another play date in the near future.  Plus Joey has the best train set ever and Waylon will be more than willing to hang out with Joey and his awesome trains again soon.

Luckily I have some pictures on reserve.  We attended Todd's cousin's son's 3rd birthday party over the weekend.  Uncle Mike was shaking the balloons in the kids faces which the kids found to be hilarious and certainly the best part of the day.  Next time I go to a child's birthday party I am just going to bring a balloon to shake in their face in lieu of a present.  I am kidding.....sort of. Look at the smiles on these faces!

Wow. I stink at this blogging business.

So obviously I have not been very faithful in my blog participation, but I've made myself an exciting new banner and I am ready to get cracking!  As you can see by my banner I have a fondness for baby toes and their likeness to the shape of peas, thus the Little Pea Toes title. I've decided to keep this blog dedicated to things that I want to remember and those funny things in life that I should be writing down.

Waylon has the best little freckles, just tiny dots that are sprinkled on his nose and cheeks. They are so subtle that they are very difficult to catch on camera, but this is my attempt.

And since I haven't posted anything all month, here are a few more pictures.  At the beginning of the month we stayed with Todd's grandma while my mother-in-law was out of town, so we could help out around the house (this is part of my excuse for not blogging).

We washed the car.

We washed the sponge.

We tended to the garden and made sure GiGi was happy.

And found some time to play too.

Beginning a new year!

I'm beginning 2010 with a much anticipated pregnancy, a hilarious toddler, a wonderful husband, and a new challenge.  A friend suggested taking and posting one picture a day for the whole year.

This challenge will not only force me to contribute to this blog (which has been sitting empty for months), but will allow me to chronicle my year with my expanding family and actually document the funny, crazy, memorable, and wonderful moments in my fast paced life.
