They were just too cute.. I HAD to take their pictures

Football Saturday afternoons are my favorite. Jeff lays around watching games and the kids all run around playing. And I get some cute photos from it. :)

Oh Lu :)

This last one was on the wrong setting for an indoor photo.. but a wet baby in a towel is the cutest thing ever, even if it is a bad shot!

Playing Outside

Daddy thinks this is just WAYYY to much skin showing.. but I think she's cute.

Brock was telling me he wanted to go to the beach (several people we know are at the beach this week for Spring break) and I said we can't.. we have to wait for the baby to come out. So he starts telling me to hurry up and push it out already. He got so mad he stormed back in the house... so happy I caught it on video!

Lincoln log masterpiece....

The boys were having an especially rough time obeying while playing outside the other day so they both spent some time in the time out spot. Lyla felt left out so she put herself in time out...

Lyla likes to snuggle things on the floor.. the boys were so cute covering her up with her "nigh-night" and then snuggling up next to her.

They think they're funny.

This is what the boys looked like when they got up the other morning. "we have biiiiiiiiig bellies like MOMMY!!" funny.

Snow Day = lots of pictures

Some kids build snowmen.... some kids make snow stuffed Buzz Lightyear men

100th day of School

Thursday was the "100th day of School" (something I had never heard of... this school really likes to celebrate!), so the teachers planned a morning of fun for the kids and their parents. We got there at 9 and did four crafts together...

(Brodey loves crafts... works very hard on them. Another mom stopped me and said she had been in earlier in the week observing the class and and was "so impressed" with Brodey. Mommies like to hear that kind of thing.) :)

These are Brodey's best buds from school.. Joey, Harrison and Hudson. They aren't in the same class this year but they still get to play on the playground together. Their teacher told me that Brodey is so well liked in her class that she even went to the director to see if she could move him into her room! He's happy where he is though, so they kept him where he is.

There are 11 kids in Brodey's class...

After crafts we went outside to let 100 balloons go celebrating being 100 days smarter

THEN, we went back inside for pizza and cake! (this school really likes to party!)
I had a fun morning with Brodey and was so glad I was able to stay the whole time with him!

Sweet Beans

Brock: "Mom, my sista wants to get up." (from her nap)
Me: "who?"
Brock: "My sister!!"
Me: "who??" (we try to get him to say her name)
Brock: "You know.... Sweet Beans!!"

He knows her name is Lyla and will occasionally tell other people her name, but he ALWAYS calls her by a nickname (beans, sweet beans, cutie beans, baby girl...) and whenever he talks about her he just says "my sista". I wonder if in a couple of months we'll be asking "which one??". ????

Anyhow... one thing is for sure: Lyla beans is ADORED by her brothers. Never have they been jealous of the attention we give her and they both dote on her as much as Jeff and I do. I hope they always love her so much.

Just Playin

Playing Outside

We have had some nice weather here in Georgia so we took advantage and played outside. Playing outside is so much more fun now that everyone can walk! I plan on enjoying it for the very brief time we have before baby #4 gets here and we start all over again!
