This My two-year-old Son Maxwell...

Maxwell is obsessed with Marvel Comic Characters...
As you can probably tell.
Spiderman is his first love...
Ironamn is his close second.
In this picture he is wearing his Spiderman Costume (this was well after Halloween)...
He is laying on his Spiderman bed...
with Ironman in his hand.


EVERY day Maxwell has to wear something with a SUPERHERO...
He has Shirts,
jackets,
sweatshirts,
underwear,
jammies,
wallets,
shoes...
I have to tell him that his jeans have Spidey webs on them for him to wear them...
We must own over 20 Spiderman figures...
and probably at least a dozen Ironman...


This was taken on Christmas on our way to Grandma's.


He wanted to be...
Zombie Spiderman for Halloween...


Marcus' friend Tony gave this poster to Maxwell...
One day after his bath he said...
"Daddy's friend Tony, Tony Stark gave that to me!"


This Saturday we are going to Wondercon in SF!
I can't wait to see his face!

Early Birthday Planning...

Ok so, Maxwell's 3rd birthday is September 11th...
To some this is early,
but I am SO busy at work that time of year that I don't have ANY time for a last minute party...
SOOO last year was baseball theme...


I am not a professional...
OBVIOUSLY!
LOL!
But I LOVE decorating cakes with fondant.

This year will be a superhero birthday...
My Maxwell has an obsession with Superheroes!

This is the attempt for this year...



A few modifications of course...

I have been SO inspired by all of the wonderful BLOGS out there!

Next craft... felt masks and capes for party favors...

Wordless Wednesday...not so much!

Ok, so this is my 82 year old grandma Theresa Kiyoko...

She is a 4'6" darling little Japanese woman...
Cute, isn't she!
This is her first time listening to music on an iPod!


My grandma,
when I was a little girl,
taught me ALL the girlie stuff!
She gave me a book called ...
"Glorify Yourself"...
It was a beauty book on everything ...
including keep a makeup kit under your bed...
wake up BEFORE your husband..
put on a fresh face of make up...
so that you ALWAYS look beautiful for him!
(I do not do this)
I believe this book was written by a man..LOL!
The book is worth browsing through...
but should not be taken seriously...
haha!

Anyways... my grandma also introduced me to "her" music...
taught me the two - step...
payed for all my dance and instramental lessons...
bought me a belly chain (in the early 90's)...
Oh, she even bought herself a belly chain...
to wear for my grandpa (not joking!)
bought me New Kids On The Block casette tapes...
(also in the 90's)
I hope for many more wonderful times with her...
Thanks grandma for everything! :)

Inspiration Overload...

I think ...
in the last 3 days...
I have started following over TWENTY Blogs that have inspired me.
Ok, maybe not TWENTY... 
I can not stop looking!  
I feel like I get lost going from one blog to the other...
I can not even remember where I started!!!
Hmmm...
I wonder what my first crafty post will be???
