Mothers Day Weekend

Hey moms out there! Happy Mothers Day!!!! I had a wonderful Mothers Day. Friends of mine from College came in town and stayed with us and there is nothing better than to share/show off your kids on Mothers Day! They made a wonderful Mothers day brunch and we relaxed by the pool, went out Saturday evening and really just had a great time. I got a MAJOR response from the last blog so I am sticking closer to what yall wanna hear about and will give an update on all the men in my life. This week I will start with the smallest of men....Austin.

AJ is a small version of Braydon. Their baby pictures look almost identical and I gave you one of B at 2mos for a point of comparison... it is crazy how similar they are. He is still throwing up all the time so the laundry is off the charts but in BIG news we got our first smile from him this week! Talk about rewarding!

Caleb is teetering on weather or not wearing the cowboy boots is worth the discomfort. This week we left them at home 3 days and 2 other days took them off saying "no mommy, boots off, hurt me". As you can see in the pic of what I call his "den" he is quite and animal lover. Every night he sleeps with 2 stuffed horses, a bunny rabbit, a lady bug and a dog. Maybe being a vet is in his future? He also likes to dress the part for the pool but he has no interest in getting in. He is always on the side playing at the water table and using water torture on the dogs.

Braydon LOVES the water and gets in almost everyday even though it is all by himself. He is at such a cool stage that he can play for hours by himself in the pretend world he is creating with his cars or other figures. He had a great week at school they did May Crowing and talked all about the Virgin Mary and he gave me a detailed report on Caterpillars turning into Butterflies and he made a cocoon at school.

Rob is doing great and had a really good time with our Friends also. We have found some "Favorite" spots in Scottsdale and with AJ getting older we are going out more and more. He is off to Seattle for work this week and will be living out a packed schedule from Monday to late Thursday night when we get him back. Work seems to be going fairly well and he really made Mother's day special by interviewing the boys and making me cards with their quotes on them. I love them!!

B's card said "Good Job making us dinner and playing with us" and he asked for a Christmas tree to be drawn on the front to color.
Caleb's card said "Thank you for my milk, my horsies and hugs" and he asked for a horse to be drawn on the front for coloring.
I am such a lucky mom!
