Lazy Blogger Monday: Photos from the Past Few Weeks

Hopefully, these somewhat maintain my anonymity...but here are a few shots from the past few weeks.

Nugget's Birthday Cake...Doesn't he look scared?

Nugget running like a mad man around the house with his birthday balloons.

Nugget all decked out in his Halloween costume for the neighborhood parade. A firetruck came!

Nugget at a local apple orchard/farm. He loves animals!

Happy Birthday, Nugget!

Your Nate is such a handsome young man! I can't believe they are already two. It really does go way too fast! Looks like he had a great bday. I'm going to have to get a balloon bouquet. My Nate will be in heaven!

PS LOVE Frankenstein. Great costume!!!
