only my son..

so last night me and all 3 boys headed to hallmark to get ron his birthday cards. Owen is on this trip of being the *big boy* and wanting to walk more than hip ride, so of course last night was no different.
we headed into hallmark and he was seriously good as gold. i was so proud! not touching when told *no* and just staying right next to me as i looked threw card after card trying to find the perfect one that ultimately didnt exists.
the boys got their cards picked out and we found the perfect one from owen to daddy.. so as we were standing there checking out, i looked away for a second, just one small second and when i looked back, my sweet good boy owen, was sitting inside a display in hallmark *eek*
now it wasnt one of their glass shelf displays which was a good thing but a wire rack display that he climbed in the middle of and sat down.. he looked like a prisoner or a caged animal. while i will give him huge props for not knocking anything down on his way threw the maze to the middle, how in the hell was i going to get him out?
have you ever tried to *bait* a one year old out of one of them things? i knew assistance from me would only end in disaster and like most hallmark stores, this one was as crowded as the rest.. maybe even a bit more than the rest because the store is on the smaller side.
finally a few minutes later we managed to get him out but OMG how embarrassing!



The boys gave ron his birthday cards this morning before school but are making him wait on his small gift until later tonight. and of course he spotted his favorite cake last night *boston creme pie* in the fridge..
happy birthday sweetie! we love you with all our hearts.. your a wonderful husband and father!
