Splish Splash

A couple of days ago I took a video of Bethany "singing" and playing. I love to see their little personalities coming out! We also went over to Aaron's parents' house last weekend to try out their new pool. I think Zachary was more into it and probably could have stayed in the pool all afternoon!

Go Fish

Aaron, his dad, and his brother went fishing on Saturday morning. They caught their limit of fish in just a few hours. Here's some of the fish before their guide cleaned them.

And here's the picture after my dad worked his photoshop magic. Notice anything different?

Wanda Ross

My Grandma Billie's sister passed away on Friday night. Wanda's on the far right in this picture, which was taken with my Great Grandma Willie back when she was still alive. Mary and Beverly are two of Wanda's daughters, and we look forward to seeing them on Tuesday. It's always sad to lose someone we love, but we can take comfort in knowing she's in a better place.

It's all about me :)

My 1st official mother's day started on Thursday with a massage. When I got back to the house, Aaron's aunt said there was a surprise waiting for me in the kitchen. An Edible Arrangement was delivered along with a teddy bear and balloon (from Aaron and the kids of-course).

I'm so lucky to be their mom!

Aaron actually went on a camping/fishing trip with his dad and brother, which having some quiet time to read and relax after the kids have gone to bed is a gift in itself. Hopefully I can get a good picture with Bethany and Zachary on Sunday, since I'm usually the one taking the pictures. Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there...including mine!

Wordless Wednesday: Sleeping?

Wildcats

He laughs! So does she, but he'll especially laugh when you're changing his clothes and tickle him under his arms. Her new trick is eating her toes! I tried my best to get a picture of Bethany and Zachary in their ACU outfits. They don't want to stay as still these days :)

Sunny Sunday

We put Zachary in the swing at my parents' house today. I think he enjoys being outside. Usually he'll go right to sleep on our walks, but he got to sit up front this evening and was wide awake. Bethany rode in the back, and you can see how she ended up. The last picture shows how I found her this morning!

One last reminder about my blog going private. I'll wait until the end of the week, so if you want to be on my list of readers, leave me a comment with your e-mail address. Thanks!
