New Days Ahead

Oh how very neglected this poor blog is.
Between my photography blog and my frame a day I am blogged out.
But I need to come here more often, this one is for my babies.
I will post more.
So, here you have it, the new days....
all three of my babies are in school this year.
Alexee is in the 3rd grade making us proud as always.
Braiden is in Kindy, he is finding his way and loving school.
Carter is in two day preschool, that is not going quite as well, he is struggling being away from his mama, so needless to say I have spent a lot of time in his class helping him adjust.

Time is flying by and we are just trying to embrace every minute of it.

My Baby...

saying his prayers like such a big boy.
It is the sweetest thing,
the only thing we actually here is
"Dear God...."
then he just whispers and mumbles,
then......
"Amen"

L.o.v.e

Love Bugs

My friend got some ladybugs for the kids to release in the backyard.
I had no idea you could even do such a thing, it will surely be an event we remember every spring from here on out though because they loved it.
Alexee and Carter couldn't get enough of the little guys crawling all over them, Braiden....not so much.
He liked watching them fly away, he said they felt "funny" when they were on him.
They were telling us all kinds of ladybug facts I didn't even know they knew during the release!

The Boy Who Stole My Heart

I haven't done pictures of my sweet little boy for awhile.
He wasn't feeling up to it until I informed him if he let me take his picture I would do his chores for that day. Ha, bribery will get you everywhere.
It was so so worth it because I love how they all turned out.
He starts out being all serious, but as you can see that doesn't last long with this one.

My sweet little boy, I can't believe he's already 5......
he is my most sensitive
he is my l.o.u.d.es.t.
he is often in a silly mood
he hates mornings, he wakes up grumpy most of the time
he is really starting to enjoy school
he tells me one of the girls in his class is his girlfriend
he has the best eyelashes....e.v.e.r.

he loves......
to snuggle
his "moogoos"
his puppy "duke"
swimming
making us laugh
the color blue
driving fast in daddy's sand car
riding his bike

To the boy who stole my heart I love to the moon and back.

OuT oF tHe MoUtHs Of BaBeS~Take 16

Today Carter comes walking in my office after eating lunch,
I ask him if he is done and if he cleaned up his mess.
He replies, "yep."
Then looks over at me and says,
"but you should just stay in here, don't go out there."
Ha...
translation...

"I am lying and I don't want to get caught."

OuT oF tHe MoUtHs Of BaBeS~Take 15

This poor blogged has been like the red headed step child...
trying to maintain three is just, well, a lot!!
I will be better though, I have to,
this is my journal for my kids...must.be.better.blogger!!

Okay, Okay on to the out of mouths post.....
The other day we were driving the kids to school and Carter was counting for us....
after the number 10, he said "eleventeen"

These little innocent moments I will miss so much, I love this age.
Their innocence is one of my favorite things.

Sweet and Feisty

Little Bug got in big trouble the other night for beating on Braiden.
This little boy, he is so so sweet, or so so mean.
There is no in between, and when he is being mean...you better look out.
He was scolded and sent to stand in the corner, after a couple of minutes he hadn't made a sound so I went to tell him he could come out of the corner, but he wasn't there.
After searching around for him, we found him in his bed....sound asleep.
My sweet~feisty little boy, sleeping like an angel.
