Our Star!

Jax has a few moves just not in a recital!
Delaney and her friends, Emily & Skylar
Backstage....

Delaney took the stage for her first dance recital at the Union Performing Arts Center last night. She performed in two numbers and the finale. She looked like she was having a blast. She never stopped smiling and danced her little heart out. We are so proud of her. A star has been born!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day for me was very special this year. For whatever reason, through all the fights, wants, and needs, I kept thinking how blessed I was to be a mother. I can't imagine not having each of you in my life.

At school you performed in a "Mother's Day" program and sang the cutest, "I love mommy" song. On Sunday, Jax told me "Happy Mother's Day" at least twelve times and you all picked me the most beautiful flowers. It was so sweet.

Daddy bought me a new digital camera, but Baylor still was a bit uncooperative in taking pictures. We must have family pictures taken soon.

Weekend Fun

Crash Course

We finally have some wide open space without traffic to ride your 4-wheelers. It was more like bumper cars in the beginning, but you are finally getting the hang of things. Now, the challenge is keeping up with each of you!!!

Chilly Easter

"Cheeesseee..., Can we go?"

Look what the Easter bunny brought!

After two weeks of warm gorgeous spring weather, the high Easter Sunday was only in the mid 50's. That didn't stop you from hunting eggs a couple of times with your cousins, Brookelyn and Braylon.

We hosted both families on Easter so it was a very busy day.

I didn't get any copperation in taking a picture of you all dressed up Sunday morning!

Spring Break 2007

I can't believe how fast this week has gone. I also can't believe how much energy you all seem to have these days. You seem to get so wound up at times (running, chasing each other and wrestling each other to the ground until someone cries!). When you are in that mode, it's very hard for you to listen.

Our week:
Monday, we ran some errands and since all was going well, I decided to take you into Hobby Lobby. Big Mistake. You all touched and picked up everything. When we finally arrived to the check out, you decided to start one of your wrestling matches. It was very embarrassing!

Tuesday, we just hung out at the house. I worked on hanging pictures and decorating Delaney's room. We also played games. I realized that Delaney and Jax recognize most numbers 1-10.

Wednesday was probably the highlight of your week. We met some friends at Pump It Up, where you played for an hour and half on inflatables. You loved the slide. I think I actually wore you out that day.

Thursday, we went to Wal-Mart without any major incidents. I would even say you were very good kids. We also went to story time at the Skiatook Library. We checked out a few books and DVD's. The boys were in desperate need of hair cuts, so we decided to check out a local salon for our first "Skiatook" hair cut. Well, we definitely got our money's worth. It will be months before you need another hair cut. I was hoping to have pictures taken on Saturday, but we will be waiting until the boys have hair. Mommy was very disappointed.

Friday, we hung out in our pajamas most of the day. I cleaned house, while you all made a huge mess! Baylor as usual wore his Buzz costume most of the day.

And of course I continue to try every trick and bribe in the book to get the boys to go in the potty. Needless to say, it's not working. At one point when I was going on about how you all needed to be potty trained before you started school, Baylor said, "Don't cry mommy. I just can't make it work. It's to hard. It won't come out my pete bug!"

Daddy now says it's time to seek professional help!

Home Sweet Home

Playing Dragon at the old house!

We have finally moved into our new home in Skiatook. Daddy and I worked hard to unpack everything before you arrived. You were so excited to see all of YOUR toys. It was like Christmas all over as you discovered all the things you had left behind the past few months. Also with the additional space you were finally able to play dragon again with Daddy.

The funniest moment came at dinner time. We ordered pizza that evening, and we were sitting at the bar and Baylor asked, "mommy, do they have chocolate milk in Skiatook?"
