Easter

We had a wonderful day at my parents house. It started with an early breakfast with my brother and his family. Here I am holding my niece, Natalie. She is so cute and I think see looks like my side of the family.

Here is my sweet baby girl. She is growing so fast. See got her third tooth on Easter. She is scooting everywhere and is trying to pull up on things. She also just learned how to sit herself up from the floor.


My sister-in-law and I decided it would be fun to dress the kids up in the same outfits for Easter. They look so cute.!!!! Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter. We are still having camera issues. I hope to post more pictures of Easter soon.

Happy Birthday, My Fool

Happy Birthday, Jason. I am very lucky to be married to such a great husband and father.
The kids and I hope that this year is filled with lots of love and memories for you. Thanks for taking such good care of us.

In other news, we are still waiting for our camera to be fixed. I know that many of you look at the blog to see pictures of the kids. Hang in there. I promise to post several pictures when we get our camera back.

Now for the family update:

Jason- He spent that last week living alone at our house while we had the damage from a leak in the master bathroom fixed. We moved back into the house on Monday. (Thanks mom and dad for having us in your home for such along time.) He missed us, but not the messes we make. Softball starts soon and he is looking forward to getting back on the field after the winter break.

Becky- The big news in my life is that I found out that I am going to be teaching second grade next year. I am so excited about the new challenge. It should be a great experience. I am also looking forward to Spring Break next week. The kids and I are staying home and hope to go on some day trips.

Bobby- Our little man is so funny. I laugh everyday when I am around him. Last night, he had his GeGe (my Mom) teaching him different yoga poses. He also just recently learned his address. He is looking forward to the warm weather and is already asking to go swimming.

Leslie- Our sweet little girl is growing so fast. She is now on the move. She is scooting around on her belly. We have to keep our eye on her because she has been very close to eating dog food. Her hair is starting grow in and I just bought her some bows. Look for pictures of that very soon. She is also very loud and loves "talking" to her brother.

Here is a picture of the kids with their cousins, Drew and Natalie. We went to see them a couple weeks ago.

6 Months and So Much More!!


Today, Leslie turned 6 months old. She has changed so much in the last several weeks. We are having so much fun watching her learn different things. She is giggling at her brother, rolling all over the place and sitting up on her own. Why do babies grow so fast? I am also happy to report that she has finally started to grow some hair. Leslie also started solid foods this weekend. She loves the carrots. Peas are next.

As for the rest of the family, we are all healthy and happy. Bobby has already been on his 1st trip to FL for this year. He had a great time and wants to go swimming all the time. He doesn't understand that it is too cold to swim here. I hope to get back to posting at least one a week again. I just have not had the time or any great pictures to share. I hope to post a video of the kids this week too.
