Cartoon Kids


I LOVE this website. This picture is one of my favorites of all the boys. It was taken around Valentine's Day when we were on our way to a family breakfast and they just looked so cute that I piled them all together on the couch for a photo. They really do love each other and I can feel it in this picture. Hopefully they stay this sweet and adorable forever! I love you boys!

Gymnastics and Ducks

The boys had a blast at Emily and Abby's gymnastics birthday party! They were so proud of themselves on the balance beam. They said they want to take gymnastics lessons now, so after swim lessons and soccor this Fall, we will look into that. Thanks for the great party Grantham girls!!! Saturday was a fun day with GiGi and Grandad. First we went to eat lunch at Ragin Cajun and feed the ducks. The ducks were crazy! One of them bit Justin's finger. Those greedy things couldn't wait for you to throw them a piece of bread so they just snatched it out of your hand. It was a beautiful day aside from the wind.
Sunday was an awful day. Justin was sick all day and night. We got pretty quick at throwing him in the tub to wash, stripping his bed and putting clean sheets on, and getting him back in bed in minutes. Poor kid. He is doing a bit better today. Ryan cut another tooth this weekend so he was pretty fussy and woke up throughout the night crying. He is still so darn cute at 3am. I just love my boys. Well, have a great week! I can't believe it will be April in a few days!

Weekend Excitement

This weekend the boys went to Gianna's birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. This is the 3rd girls birthday party this month and we have another two to go! Friends Emily and Abby have a gymnastics party this weekend and then we are back to Chuck E Cheese the next weekend. I love the girly parties with Barbie, Tinkerbell, and Princess themes since I never get to do those. They always have a blast and I enjoy visiting with the parents. Here is a photo of the boys and Gianna. I also took Ryan to the park at the front of our neighborhood. He doesn't quite sit up yet and he isn't too sure about being in the grass so it was hilarious to watch him when I put him down. His face was was too funny.
Here is a cute video of Ryan in our living room but try to ignore the sound effects in the background. Ellen was on my TV with some cat making weird noises.

Chili-Chili-Bang-Bang!

Today was our Chili Cook-off at good ol' DWH. I just love all the people I work with so much. They make going to work everyday so fun. Our Team name was the Chili-Chili-Bang-Bangs, our AWESOME chili that Kelly made was named Chili Today, Hot Tamale, and we also entered Boom goes the Dynamite Corn courtesy of Melody. Of course our entries were the best by far but we didn't win. I had a blast working with all my girlfriends to make it all come together. Aimee designed our cute shirts. Here are some pictures.

Abs, Buns and Thighs


I decided to dust off the old Jane Fonda workout video my mom gave me in high school and actually exercise for the first time since having Ryan. I have my 30th birthday in June and one of my best friends is getting married in September so I need to get in shape. I popped in the old VHS tape and started dancing around the living room with all the kids looking at me like I was crazy. Jayson in his sweet innocent voice walked up and pointed at the TV and said "mom, why she doesn't have a shirt and pants on?" Well Jayson, that is called a leotard and it is work out clothes. Then he started laughing as we did lunges and said "ewwww" as we see a close up of Jane clenching her tight buttocks. The boys then thought it would be fun to do the entire video with me. Scott was cracking up as he watched all of us jumping around following all of Jane's moves. Finally after we had done the cool down, we laid down to do crunches. Jayson gave up at that point but Justin did every single stomach crunch and even copied all of the sound effects that Jane made. It was hilarious. Here's to you Jane Fonda in your yellow and black leotard with a belt and leg warmers! Thanks for making me sweat all of these years! I am ready for round 2 tonight...

Rodeo and Tooth Photo

It was a great weekend with the kids and the Savoie's at the rodeo. It is funny how the kids were so into the animals last year and this year they were all about the rides. All I heard from Jayson was "I want to ride a roller coaster" over and over. He ended up riding it 3 times! I felt like a kid again too on all the carnival rides. It was great! Here are some pictures from our day.






And I got a picture of Ryan at the rodeo showing off his first tooth! He was such a happy baby all day. I love him so much!

Is there something on my face?


Holy Sweet Potatoes! We found a winner. Ryan hasn't been eating baby foods well yet. That is until he discovered sweet potatoes. He ate them and loved them. Hooray! Ryan also cut his first tooth this weekend. He was a drooling, fussy baby and we finally figured out why on Sunday morning. I saw the tiny little white tip of the tooth had come through his gums over night. The second one is poking through also but isn't all the way through. I can't believe my 5 month old baby is about to have two teeth! I will try to get a picture of them to post very soon. Other new things Ryan is doing now is that he gets up and rocks on his hands and knees and tries to crawl. He does move around but I wouldn't call it a crawl yet. He is the happiest, sweetest baby ever. I just love coming home from work and cuddling with him. Jayson and Justin found out that it is fun to play at our neighbor Ashley's house so they were there for hours last night. She has a trampoline and many big kid games so they weren't happen when it was time to come home. I did enjoy the quiet, alone time with Ryan while they were gone. Of course all night I was asked if we could get a trampoline too. I said no but they could go jump on Ashley's anytime! This weekend was Caitlyn's 2nd birthday party at Monkey Bizness. The boys had a great time playing and I got to visit some great girlfriends who used to work with me at David Weekley Homes. I miss those girls so much! Here are a few pics from the party.

After the party, we went to Kingwood to visit the Savoie's and to see Scott's family from Louisiana. Fun weekend! Last night Ryan was being super cute kicking like crazy in his bath. Here is the video.

That's all the news for now!
