Non stop chatter!


I don't know what has gotten into my boy. He has been a chatter box for 2 days. For those of you who know him, you know he doesn't talk just to talk. But, the last couple days he talks all the time. He even talked to random strangers in the grocery store.

We went to get both kids shoes on Saturday. Macie's feet had grown more than a size, so she needed some shoes. Carson wears his tennis shoes out very quickly so he needed some too. While we were there we also got the kids Crocs. Carson told me awhile ago that he needed Crocs when he was 4. He hasn't said anything else about them, but he obviously really wanted them. He had to go see Cole and Connor on Sunday to show iff his new shoes. Jeff let him pick the color out so if you see them don't blame me! (He is wearing his "new brown sandles" in this picture at the zoo. I will get one of him in his crocs soon)

Spring Break

If you have some time...enjoy the photos from our Spring Break. We went to the park, to play putt putt, out on Grandpa's boat, to get ice cream, and to the zoo. There are lots of photos...as usual.

Spring Break







Rene' and her kids are here for Spring Break. I have tons of pictures, but I will post them when they leave (in a video!). Here are a few from Monday. We went to Woodstock First Baptist play ground and putt putting. I am sure the lay out for this will be crazy. My preview never looks like it does when I post!

6 Years

Yesterday was Jeff and my 6th anniversary (Happy 5th Landons). We spent the weekend at the FamilyLife Weekend to Remember. We had wanted to go on a real trip, but with everyting going on with my mom it did not happen. Jeff was not excited about it at first, but he warmed up to the idea. We both really enjoyed it and would recommend it to others. Here is Jeff doing his work before one of the sessions. I think technically he was either praying or waiting for me to finish.
Saturday night they have date night built into the schedule. Here is a picture before we went out for the night. I thought it turned out fairly well for a timed picture in a hotel room.
Hopefully, we will be able to go on a real trip for an anniversary soon, but in the mean time, we would return to the conference and potentially take some of you with is.

Report card and a few pictures

Carson's school usually has a conference at the end of the 3 yr old school year. For some reason this year they decided to send home the reports instead. If I want a conference, his teacher will be happy to set one up. So, today Carson had his first report card come home. He had a check for "most of the time" in all categories. My little introvert still plays a lot on his own, and will enter cooperative play when others start it. He loves school, and I know he knows what he should at this point.

Yesterday, we had a beautiful day. Here are a few pictures.

The view out our family room
window. You can not really tell,
but it is beautiful.
Macie playing with the tree
Trying to ride the tricycle. She loves wearing a helmet!



One of my favorite pictures from this week. Macie is working on her 3rd molar. I can see it poking through the gum, but it has not broken through yet. It seems to have been really hurting her. Sometimes, she cries when she bites down on something. Tuesday night after she ate a little dinner, I gave her a popsicle. Walmart has these great mini popsicles that are suppose to be slow melt. Macie would not be a good advertisement for the slow melt part, but it seemed to make her feel better! Notice she has the thing shoved as far back as she can get it.

Poor Macie

I looked at our refridgerator today and noticed something. There are 15 pictures of Carson and not one of Macie. His pictures go from the day after he was born to his fall soccer picture. Maybe it's time to print some of the photos I take!
After bath-she was snuggling, but looked up when she saw the camera.
