big boy...

Well my little man now SITS for his baths....
Man this is going way to fast!!!!!

















sister loves it......

The perfect tea party....

well... it may have been far from perfect but it was FUN!

Gold fish and diet dew.....
(i know not the healthiest)

It started out just momma and ella...
but then my big boy thought it looked like fun but let us know he was not having a pink plate!
And until the end the little boy wanted in on the fun too!


And when I say it was not "all" perfect .... this is what I mean.






















and a little of this.....

























But then there was this........

























































































































And that's what made it PERFECT!!!!!!!

t.h.i.r.t.y

Last night I was texting a good friend of mine....
My text to her said something like this,
"its happening friend its happening... i will be thirty tomorrow!"

She, knowing that i was not looking forward to it sent this in reply....
"Ahhhh, Holy Smokers! Well what I CAN say to this is: in one day short of thirty years you have lived such an incredibly FULL life! You married your best friend, you survived a terrible accident-and every day you do not let that win, you have made three beautiful little miracle babies- guiding them closer to being the people God created them to be. You are an amazing woman who I have always felt so blessed to call my best friend. Even though you live so far away... I learn so much from you still. You should welcome this new number with joy! There is no one else who can make the big 30 look as good as you can!!!!! 30 has been waiting to be your number and finally the time has come! 30 has never been happier!"

It was a God send... she is SO right... I am blessed! .....from that point on I have not even thought about it....I am ready to accept my new role... 30 HERE I COME!

just a little more of us...

We really have been enjoying life lately....
Weather it be days at home, time outside, or time well spent with friends!

I heard a lot of noise coming from the dining room while I was getting lunch ready and just had not takin the time to look over and see what it was...
When I had the plates ready I walked over to the table to find my sweet girl getting all her babies ready to eat.... love watching her in the mommy role!
I think she has ten pulled up to the table... man oh man does she have her hands full!
I would like to think that we had a lunch time party!


















There was a recent purchase made..... another camo hat!
However, this time it was to make a little girl feel like part of the crew!
Check out my little camo family!



















We have been loving the weather...
Outside is where we are...
I just allowed Gabe to take a pic with my camera the other day
and now he thinks he is big stuff.... asking to do it all the time.
This was a photograph by my big boy!
Love it...love that we barely made the pic... that camera is heavy for my little man!

















Love this pic... we took it ourselves!


















We love our walks...
Sure glad this little dude does too!



































































(yes they did pick out their own clothes, just for the record)

























This is what my boy brought with us... bc his nose was running.
Not a box of kleenex's... just toilet paper!
























This is my girl writing me a ticket bc I was walking fast!
























another pic by gabe....























They keep me on my toes but I love my job!
