Bedtime shenanigans.

We took a break from exploring Laguna Gloria last Sunday to throw pennies
in a fountain and make wishes. Silly wishes.

Daddy took Spencer to his first Texas Longhorns basketball game last night.

This is his "I'm a little self-conscious right now" expression.

Wallet

I bought Spencer a wallet for Christmas and he sure does feel like a big boy when he takes it to the store and buys something. Last weekend he asked us to take him to the LEGO store because he had some money burning a hole in that wallet. He emptied it out and we supplemented a bit so he could get a big police station he'd had his eye on for months.

His sweet smile brightens my day.

5-Year Photos: Heartbreaker Alert

We took family photos in November but I'm just now getting around to posting them because they needed a little Photoshop magic first. Some mysterious spots showed up on Spencer's t-shirt that weren't visible to the naked eye during the shoot. This was our third shoot with 15 Minutes of Fame. We got some great ones of Spencer and a frame-worthy one of the two of us, but for some reason we just didn't get any awesome family shots. I just love the top two pics of the boy. Yummy!
