few happy pictures!

We've had a great week! Looking forward to a long weekend! 

2nd grade gives the CogAT in my new county....so I made all my teammates a sweet treat! 

In the girls new class they have mailbox time every Wednesday. They ask us parents to write letters to them so they can read it to them. I've written them the last couple of weeks but this week the Mr. did it! And boy, were they sweet!

When I got out of my car one more morning this is what I saw...

God's sweet reminders! 

Ethel got a hair cut this week! She looks great and she always loves it when we pick her up! Thanks to M for taking her for us! :) 

Hope you all have had a great week! Happy almost weekend!

Odd and Ends of our week! :)

We survived the first week of school! Whew! It always wears me out! I was in bed at 8:30pm on Friday night. ha! 

These girls are precious and LOVE each other SOO much! Just the other day the Mr. and I just stopped and listened to them...they truly have their own language! We could pick up on some of the words but mostly it was their language. They know exactly what each other is saying. 

Also, dry cereal is a big hit for dessert these days! ha! :) Works for me! 

I've been on a guac kick lately...like I could eat it everyday and usually make it about every other day! Well, these girls are just as obsessed at me! They LOVE it!

So some of you know that my wedding rings had to be cut off when I was 8 months pregnant with the girls. It was awful. My fingers swelled over night and it got pretty scary...there was talk if we didn't get them off my finger would have to come off. So the Mr. cut my rings off with fishing pliers and I was so sad because I had worn them for 5 years and never took them off. We finally were able to get them fixed...it was so expensive. But I'm so glad we finally were able to do it. I've missed these beauties! 

This boy LOVES his G! She found him some new dump trucks and construction equipment! 

This is Hope our neighborhood dog...she is the SWEETEST!!!!! Her family used to own all of the land that our neighborhood is on so she is used to roaming. We just love her! We haven't met her owners yet, but when we do we have so many sweet stories to share with them! 

This girl has had a rough few days...SO fussy. We think it's teeth. She wants to be held non stop. We try to hold her as much as we can.

Pick Me Ups in Life!

As much as we wanted some snow we are SO ready for warm weather! Well, we got just what we've wanted yesterday. The Mr. and I both talked about how our students at school were so good because of the warm weather. It's amazing what beautiful weather does to your mood! When I picked up our kiddos from school we decided to fed them a quick dinner at home and head to the park! It was just what our little (BIG) family needed! :) We headed to our favorite local park and the kiddos ran and played. All five of us had smiles on our faces! I loved watching my three babies enjoy each other and us all being together. One of the best parts of our evening was when he Mr. took a detour and took us through DQ! He ordered 3 kid cones with sprinkles! YUM! 

Olivia's face when she dropped her cone. 

It was the perfect little pick me up in our week! 

It's the simple things in life y'all!

I hope your week has started off as wonderful as ours has! :)

P.S. The kiddos DID NOT eat an entire cone of ice-cream! We are fun parents but not crazy! ha! 

What's New!?

Sorry for the lack of posts...we are alive and well just busy with life!

At the beginning of the month I threw a shower for my sweet friend K...she is expecting her 3rd boy and I'm just so excited for her! She is a super mom and I know she'll love being a mom to 3!! :)

Mama ended up being in town on T's actual birthday because Olivia came down with a 103 fever and had to be taken to the doc before returning to school. We went to Chick-fil-A for dinner of course and Tuck got some ice-cream to celebrate! :) 

Birthday bath for the birthday boy!

2 days after Olivia had the 103 fever EK got it too! They both ended up having ear infections. I took the day off to take care of EK. It ended up being good because I was able to get everything read for T's party and our house showed for the first time that Friday evening. 

We kept Lilo and Flik one evening and as soon as M left Tucker got on the floor with Flik and told him, "Don't worry Flik, Riah be back!"

The kiddos are great, just busy with work, getting things done around the house since it's on the market and waiting on Spring! :)
