The life!

August 8, 2011
We are having a great time so far!  This morning we played at the pool, came home for lunch and a little rest time and then went on a boat ride to a little island out on the lake. We stopped and floated for a little while ....this is Lizzie and Mema chilling! :)

Lake

We made it to Georgia to see mema and pepa.  This is the view from their back porch. We love coming to the lake! We have already enjoyed a dip in the water and look forward to boat rides, trips to the pools and much more!  :)

Visit with the Boykin's

August 6, 2011
While we were in NC, we wanted to get together with Kim, Steve and Jake.  We had plans to cookout at their house, but Jake was not feeling well and had a fever the day before. So, me and Mike went out to eat without the kids and just stopped by their house for a few minutes. It was good to catch up even if only for a little while. Jake was feeling better and jumped in for this picture of me and Kim.  :)

August 5,2011
We are in NC at mama and A.G.'s. It not too bad outside today and we are waiting for supper. Matthew is sitting and putting little rocks in his shoes. He has been doing this for at least 10 minutes. He will now come to me saying "ouch, hurts" and we will have to take his shoes off to get the rocks out. Then the process will repeat!  :)

Lazy morning

August 3, 2011
I lost control of this blog months ago. I have plenty of pics, but got behind posting and never caught up. I can now post from my new smartphone so I think it will be easier for me. Let's hope!
It is a rainy morning and the kids are watching cartoons while I pack for our trip to NC and Georgia. Matthew actually hugged Lizzie when I asked him to and I captured it. :)

He made it











February 28, 2011


With some help, Matthew made it to the top with Sissy! Of course, it makes me nervous because I am afraid they will get careless and he will fall out - I guess that's part of being a Mommy! They had a great time playing and sliding down the "big slide". I see many more days out here once the weather ever gets warm. :)

I am a big boy

February 27, 2011

We had a warmer day, so the kids headed outside! Matthew has figured out that there is more fun up these steps at the top of the swingset/play area because Sissy is there. Let's see how long it takes for him to climb it on his own..... :)

Me & my babies

February 26, 2011 I am feeling somewhat human again. We were watching tv tonight andLizzie and Matthew both came to snuggle with me. This was very specialto me because it's usually only one of them at a time or Matthew is jealous and pushes Lizzie away from me! Lizzie had just gotten out of the shower and Matthew looks like he is asleep, but he is looking at a magazine. I asked Mike to grab the camera to try to get a picture of me and my babies. :)

Flower craft

February 25, 2011

I made it out of bed today, but was still not feeling well. Mike stayed home again. We had gotten Lizzie some crafts for Valentine's day and she made these a few days ago. Of course, it's Lizzie - she had to make the vase instead of using a cup or something we already had! :)

Sick day

February 24, 2011 I was not able to take a picture today. Last night, the nasty virus that has been going around got me. I had a fever all day today and laid in bed most of the day. Mike worked from home to help take care of the kids and I am so thankful. To make it worse, today is Mike's birthday! I had planned one of his favorite meals tonight and me and Lizzie were going to make cupcakes. Not only did he have to cook for himself and the kids, he brought me soup and crackers in bed. He is the best husband in the world and takes care of me and the kids. I am very blessed. Happy Birthday, honey - sorry it was a rough day, we will make it up to you! :)

Stairs



February 23, 2011


Matthew loves going up the stairs! Now, Lizzie is trying to teach him how to come down. Mike and I want him to learn to come down on his tummy, but no, he has to do what Sissy wants! I have to admit, she did teach him to hold on to the rail every time he slides down a step. She is a great big sister. :)

Another snow day



February 22, 2011


Yes, we have snow - again! The district canceled school since the snow came overnight. It was sunny and was mostly gone in a day, but the kids enjoyed it while it lasted. They had been out playing before lunch and then Matthew took a nap. Lizzie wanted to play some by herself while I got things done inside. I looked out the window to check on her and she was sitting in the swing very still looking at birds eating at the bird feeder. I bet she sat there for 15 minutes just as still as she could be - I never knew it was possible! :)

Playtime



February 21, 2011


There was no school today for President's Day and Mike worked from home. The MOMS Club had a play time in the gym of a church in town. I took Matthew while Lizzie stayed home. There were a lot of little kids there and Matthew had a great time. I am not sure if he threw the ball at this little girl, or if he is scoping out the other ball to take from her! :)

Blue sky

February 20, 2011
We have had a few days of sunshine and blue skies and I felt the need to get a picture of it. I am so ready for Spring! The kids have played outside all weekend - although, Lizzie is still not feeling well. I have a feeling that we haven't seen the end of winter, but I can enjoy it while it lasts. :)

Lizzie & Ally

February 19, 2011
It is the weekend and Lizzie is not feeling well. I could tell yesterday after school that she wasn't herself, but I thought she was just tired from the week. Today, she has been quiet and not very active which is really unusual. She laid down after lunch and fell asleep - when I went to check on her, this is what I found. Ally was curled up beside her in the bed - this from the same cat who used to run away every time Lizzie was near! I guess Ally has gotten used to all of the chaos in our home, or she is just so old that she doesn't care. Either way, Lizzie loves her new bed partner! :)
