If he only knew...

Catch's advice to Colt yesterday: "You should go to college because after you graduate you don't have to go to school anymore. Then you just go get a job and your life will be nice and smooth."

If he only could realize his life is the most "nice and smooth" right now!

Better late than never...

We spent Easter weekend in Texas with my mom. Saturday morning we went to a local church for a huge egg hunt and outdoor inflatable fun. After we got home we had another hunt at my mom's house because there was rain in the forecast for Sunday. The rest of the weekend included dying eggs, painting birdhouses, decorating sugar cookies and getting lots of love from my sister's baby, Devon. My camera (and sometimes my children) wasn't cooperating so the good pictures were few and far between.

Check out Chenna in the background. This is what happened after the bullhorn went off for the hunt to start and a million children darted after the eggs.


Colt and Catch's favorite activity...




Is there one under here?






One of our favorite things of the whole weekend - holding sweet Devon for the first time!

A Whole New Ballgame

Colt started his baseball career with a t-ball game last Thursday. He did awesome and made me one proud mom! Catch played his first machine pitch game of the season the same time and night (at a different ballpark) so I wasn't able to take any pics of him.

Colt and Callon




Colt got to say the prayer before the start of the game.




Look how he got his body in front of the ball!












Go Cubs!

Party Time

We chose to do a joint party for Catch and Chenna this year. We had a carnival where the kids played games to "win" small prizes. The popcorn, cotton candy, and face painting were all a hit. Chenna told me today she wanted to have another party!

Happy Birthday, Catch!

Catch turned seven on the 18th. He chose to go bowling with his brother and two of their friends. They all had so much fun!

So excited he got a spare.

The Big 3

It's hard to believe my baby girl is three years old! These were taken on her actual birthday - March 13th.









"I'm not sure which tastes better - the snot or the frosting."



"Thanks, Aunt Ti-Ti, for the Strawberry Shortcake doll!!"



I hope these are not signs of the future...
