A Few Favs

We finally got Landen's 2 year old pictures taken a couple of weeks ago. I'm not gonna lie, I didn't think any of them would turn out because he was being such a STINKER! Thank goodness for awesome cameras with fast shutter speed!! ;) So here's a few of my favorites:

Such a sassy boy...I get this look a lot (and worse!)

Free Stuff?

I'm registered for numerous coupon sites that most of the time I delete, but I got a good one today that could benefit some of you! Check out http://www.sevenslings.com/index.php/content/home. While supplies last they're giving away free baby carriers with the code "Halloween". They're so cute! (of course the women on there don't actually look like they've had babies!)

Visit to Kuna, ID

A few weekends ago, we went out to my brother's house in Kuna to celebrate some birthdays (September is a huge birthday month in my family). Specifically it was my SIL Kristina's birthday and my niece Kariessa's was the next day, but they had a birthday party together. Katie's (my sis) birthday had been earlier that week, and Cory's birthday was the following week...so like I said, lots to celebrate. Here's a few pictures from the adventures

Everyone on the teeter-totter (sp?)

Landen had so much fun with his cousin Kaden even though there's a 3 year age difference. In fact, Kaden wanted to come home with us...very cute!

My brother Kevin and Kelsie goofing off for the camera.

Kelsey, pianist extraordinaire!

Caught ya Kaylee (eating yummy Costco cake)

The birthday girls Kristina and Kariessa, oh and Kaden wanted to be in the picture too!

Just Cuz

I don't get a chance to upload my pictures onto the "right" computer very often since school is back in session and Brian always takes the laptop with him, so I'm hurrying to take the opportunity while I can! I found some cute pictures of Landen and the dogs (one of them is my sister's dog Sadie and of course our BJ). They made me laugh, so I thought I'd share.

Landen helping wash Sadie and BJ helping himself to a drink!
Right after Sadie got in, Landen's not sure what to think yet!

BJ and Sadie are best buds! (we just need to get one of them fixed soon so that they don't make cute little puppies together)

Precious (BJ's wondering what the heck we're waking him up for. Sadie...oblivious!)

Excuse his nasty shirt, but he likes to "play" on the organ.

Birthday Boy

Landen had a couple of fun days to celebrate his birthday. The pictures are out of order, but on Wednesday (his actual birthday), we had a little "family" time and opened presents then went to see Toy Story 3 (such a funny movie and Landen loved it!). He was spoiled rotten by his family (thanks so much by the way fam!). We had his actual birthday party on Friday (today) and had about 7 kids running around the house and yard having a good time. Ate lots of good food and had some cake and ice cream. Enjoy the pics (I'm tired!)

Kid Time

Landen had so much fun with his cousins while we were down in Utah! Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of him playing with Autumn and Aiden, but here's some from him playing with his "Rosenlund" cousins.

Landen loved wrestling with his cousin Abe...he was such a good sport in letting Landen tackle him climb all over him (sitting on his conquest above)

Mountain Home

Another one of our adventures while down in Utah was going to my grandpa's house in Mountain Home. It was so nice just hanging out with family, riding 4-wheelers, making tin-foil dinners and roasted marshmallows. All the fun things of camping, but having the comforts of running water, beds and electricity...my kind of camping ;). Here's a few pictures of the good times:
