Two small arms to hold you tight, two small feet to run, two small eyes full of love for you, three small sons.

Vacation

We are back from our annual family Destin trip!  It was great (because we had a lot of help from family) and the weather was perfect!  We got beachtime, pooltime, and shopping time!  My older sis flew with me and the babes (Trev and Hayes).  The hubby's drove with the "older kids".  Kind of works out better for my sis and I.  We try to make it sound bad so they complain too much :)

Here's Reagan tootie.  She is missing her 2 front teeth!  She just turned 7 and had a blast in the ocean.
Tyler is about to be 4 and LOVED the ocean.  He could sit for hours and let the waves knock him over.  He got knocked over backwards and went under a few times.  Didn't stop him!!
Oh little Trev Trev.  Unsure the first few min, but ended up liking the sand.  He liked for the water to come up on his feet...but not too far.  You can tell this is the first day because he's so white! 
Here's Trenton with the boogie board.  No big waves this year.  It was as smooth as the carribean some days!  It was shallow for a long way out so the kids could venture far.  He and Reagan pretty much stayed together and played.  I feel like I hardly interacted with him, I was a little preoccupied with little ones. 
Hayes had no opinion of the ocean.  He was pretty much pissed 75% of the vacation.  Someone decided it would be a good time to get teeth.  They broke through half way through the week.  Praise Jesus Matt's family was there to help with him.  I would have been stuck in the condo ALL week without Matt's mom (BeBe).

Of course there are a lot more pics but I'm outta time for now!

Mother's Day

Happy mother's day to all my mama's and gmas!!  :)  We are planning a low key afternoon around here.  That means I boss my husband around and he can't say anything because it's mothers day.  I get one a day a year...I'm taking advantage.  There will be curtains hung in the baby's room....that would have been a good present by itself but I won't tell Matt that.  Instead...my wonderful hubs got these stackable rings for me!!

I have always liked these.  I know several people with them.  I gave him no ideas this year.  He was on his own!!  I hate to admit that I'm the easiest wife to buy presents for.   If you ask me what I want, I always have a list of things I want.  Not a good quality, but good for Matt.

It's a good thing I have long fingers.  That's alotta rings! :)

We went to church and Hayes got "dedicated" today.  It's not a baptism (he will decided when he is ready to do that when he's older).  It's us making a pledge to bring up Hayes in the love and admonition of the Lord.  Pastor Nick presented Hayes with a certificate of dedication and his 1st Bible.  It is a special day!!
Me and the boys after chruch.  Wow. almost all looking at the camera.  :)

Here are some more of Trevor and Hayes this week.  Hayes (3mo) is so big and Trev (23 months) is so small.  I bet they will be the same size soon!
Hayes is wearing most 6-9 months clothes and Trev is wearing 12 month (some 18 month).
