Happy 2nd Birthday Abby

We made a trip to Charlotte Saturday for Abby's 2nd birthday. Cannot

believe she is already too. She loved all her "Dorda" stuff. We love you Abby!

A Girls Night

Aunt Kerri and Reese spent the night with us this weekend since all the men were out hunting. ..except Dylan. The girls loved it and believe me Dylan did too with all the attention he got. Notice they book they are reading, Tom bought that for Carleigh. I guess he is teaching her young.

Daddy's Hands

Dylan may be getting bigger but he is still our baby. He especially looks tiny in his Daddy's hands.

Aunt Rae comes to visit

Aunt Rae has taken on a new job so we don't get to see her very much anymore. Last night she got to come and spend time with the kids....especially Dylan. Dylan loved his Aunt Rae and he even fell asleep in her arms. I think you need about 10 Rae!

Yummy Yummy!

Dylan is into the real food now and boy does he love it. TOnight as you can see it wasw carrots. I think he will be ready for steak soon since he cut his first tooth this weekend!

Tonight Carleigh had her choice of boys around here. We had Hunter, Chase, Jackson and Davis. It was too cute when we went to bed and she and Jackson were curled up on the floor together asleep. Of course Tom may not think this is too cute in the morning.

Daddy's Boy

Well not really..he really is Mommy's boy but tonight he was so tired he snuggled to Tom and was out. What a sweet baby...when he is sleeping.

Sweet Dreams

Carleigh wanted to pose today before dance. She was really being a clown but the many faces of Carleigh turned out pretty cute!

Today I finally got the camera I have always wanted and I am so excited I just had to take a few shots and share my precious babies! There will be many more because I am really loving playing with this new camera.

More from the lake.....

I thought it was too funny with Dylan today. We put the bumbo on the kneeboard and rode him around. Don't worry Meme it was only in ankle deep water. He loved it!!! Tom had no break today from the girls. All 3 piled on him when he was trying to float for a while... I guess he is just a chick magnent!

The Best Lake Day

Aunt Stephanie and Abbey came to visit for the weekend and today we hit the lake. It was the perfect day. It was Abbey's first time on a boat and she loved it. She called the lake "The juice". The boys had a blast with Aunt Stephanie and the girls hung out with Tom. I had to try out Steph's new camera and we just got so many good pictures I had to share.

We made the attempt tonight to give Dylan his cereal and applesauce. It was a

family event. Hunter the photograher, Chase the director, me feeding and Carleigh trying to help. All Dylan cared about was how fast the food got to his mouth and how mad it made him when he was done. Guess we will be moving on to solid foods now! Needless to say there was much more on his hands then in his mouth.

Meme HELP ME!!!!!

Tucker goes to school

Everyday when I load up Carleigh and Dylan to pick the boys up Tucker goes right to the car too. He actually goes with me anywhere I go and sits right in the passenger seat. If Tom is with us he looks at him like " You are in my seat!" HE is honestly another child!

A Girl Day

Carleigh and her new friend Madison

Carleigh and Brielle
Carleigh and I had a great girl day today . She had her first day of dance which she LOVED. Her new friend and neighbor Madison went with her and they really enjoyed every minute of it. Her "Tap Tap" shoes did not come in time for her class but we got them right after and she has tapped all afternoon! We also went to visit another new friend who joined the world today little Brielle. She is another neighbor and Carleigh could not wait to see the new baby! Finally some girls!!!!

School boys

Today was a big day...more so for me. Chase started kindergarten and I had a really hard time with it. Hunter now in 2nd grade could have cared a less about me walking him in and the teacher even told him to tell me bye. We then headed to Chase's class where he went right in. The teacher read a story to the kids, and parents about the kissing hand and starting school. She then gave each child a heart and then told them to give their parents one. Chase put his on...you can see it in the picture and then he told me." Mom I think you need both of them so you know I am thinking about you." I did not loose it in the class but got to the car and that was it. My baby is now in kindergarten and I cannot believe it. It seems like yesterday they both were Dylan's size. Time flies!!

Tuckered out

Dylan fell asleep on the couch today and Tucker decided to take a nap right beside him. IT was too cute. My 2 babies... and I guess that Tucker thought that Dylan would sleep better with a bone.
