Picnic Time!!!

On Sunday we went to Stone Mountain Park for a picnic and the Laser Show. We had wonderful time with Uncle Matt, Aunt Christy, Drew and Natalie. Gege was a big help playing with all the kids. Best Buddies!!!

Our Cheerios Monster

Leslie loved the Laser Show for about 10 minutes and then she fell asleep.

My Beach Babies

We spent last week in Delray Beach for our annual summer visit to Grandma and Grandpa's house. Great-Grandmommy with the kids. We were all there together for one day and then she had to go home to Chicago. It was great to see her and introduce her to Leslie.Leslie loved being in the pool.

Watch out, Mommy!!!

The boys loved digging a big hole at the beach.

Leslie's introduction to the ocean. She liked better being held deeper in the water.
She spent lots of time under the umbrella playing and sleeping. She is the 1st grandchild to nap on the beach.

Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa for a great time. We all ready miss you!!!

May Madness

May has been a very busy month for us. It started with a visit from Grandma and Grandpa for Mother's Day weekend. Thanks for coming to see us.

On May 16th we walked in the Atlanta Great Strides Walk to raise money for CF. Our team raised $6,000. Way to Go, Elena's Heroes. It is not to late to donate. The team will be collecting money until the end of the year.

On May 20th, I went to meet the newest member of the Rempe clan.

Daphne is so cute.

It was also the last day of school. Wahoo!!! Summer is here.
We spent the weekend at the lake with some of my family. Above is the view from our cabin.

Liz and Spencer on the front porch swing.

Daddy's girls, check out the awesome sunset.

Leslie loved riding on the boat.

Mommy's Boys

Last summer, Bobby and I did not ride on the jet ski. I was pregnant with Leslie and

Bobby was afraid. We could not wait to go for our first ride this season. Bobby loved when we got splashed with the water.

A hard day on the jet ski = A nap.

Say Cheese!!!!

It has been awhile since my last blog. I have been waiting for our new camera. It came on Wednesday. We still need some practice with it but here are my favorites from the new camera. Thanks to Julie and Andera for the recommendation of such a great camera.

Now for the family update:

Jason and Becky are excited that the summer is almost here and we are looking forward to our trip to the beach.

Bobby is learning more each day and keeps us laughing. He is so happy that the weather is nice and he can play outside.

Leslie turned nine months old yesterday and had her check-up at the doctor. She is our little spring weed. She now weighs 22.5 pounds and is 29 in tall. Leslie is crawling and pulling up to her knees.

I want to give one shout out to my little sister, Liz. She is graduating from VSU today. Way to Go!!! You are the only one to do it in 4 years. We will be watching on the computer.

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.
