Saturday we had a little BBQ to celebrate my moms birthday-It was a SUPER busy evening!!! We did Trey's new bubble machine, ate dinner, my Grandma and I made homemade strawberry jam, and we did cake! Trey of course was in heaven because Shaw and Shane were there! Trey is 100% obsessed with my brother Shaw-lately he has been carrying around a Madden Playstation game case saying Shaw because he thinks any football player is him. Then the next day we went to church and Trey had a BIG day--he said Jesus for the 1st time (sounds like Geesusus) and stayed in the nursery the whole service!!! This is something he used to do but since Boston was born its a full blown bloody murder scream up to the nursery door and he did scream for 20 minutes today but then quit and played, so I didn't have the dreaded # pop up on the screen in front of church with my kids number! Then I got to go out to lunch with a friend for my birthday at The Living Room which was super good--so it was a good day!

Our Garden!!!

So as I said earlier Mark got me all the stuff to start a garden for my birthday so here are some pictures of us getting it ready!! I am so excited to see what we can grow and to have some veggies and herbs right in our backyard! I also think Trey will love to help do this--what boy doesn't love dirt? Also by the time fall comes hopefully the veggies we grow from seeds will be ready and perfected for when I puree Bostons baby food. Right now we have Dill, Mint, & Basil for herbs--red & yellow bell peppers, cucumber, tomatoes, & watermelon!

Playing with Brayden!

Today Brayden came over to play and you 2 were hysterical together!! It is so fun to see you 2 together because you guys are literally 1 week apart and now he has a little brother that will be here VERY soon!!! So Trey can not ever not have his shorts off or off comes the diaper (he even sometimes decides to take both off) so when we wanted them to play with the water table this it what happened...
2 Very cute tooshies!!!!
Thankyou GiGi for this water table this gives hours of entertainment!!!!
Caught in the act of mischief

My Birthday!

This year for my birthday I went out to lunch at The Farm with my Mom, Sister, Grandma, & of course the little boys! I absolutely LOVED this place. It was so nice out--I am sad to see the 100 degree weather come! Then that night Mark took me to Roka Akor and it was amazing. If you are a foody you should go there it is the 1st and only one in the United States!!! Mark got me the sweetest gift ever (it might sound odd to many of you) but for awhile now I have been saying I want to start a garden so he made me a basket full of everything I need to start one and even bought the wood to build me the planters for it!!! I am so excited to do this so Sara and Jaclyn I know you have one I need your help-lol!!!!! So thankyou sooooo much Mark for paying attention to the little things!

Swim lessons with Daddy!

New aviator sunglasses
Finally found flip flops for your chunky feet
Trey started swim lessons again except this time its way more skill teaching--his other classes were more getting used to water. This time DADDY is getting in!!!! I cant publicly get in the pool yet lol! Anyways I think Trey did pretty well--no screaming when he would get dunked just if they took him too far from Mark lol. The pics are not amazing cuz I watched thru a window but you get the point.

Of course Uncle Shaw and Poppie had you putting your eggs in the lacrosse net
I have looked forward to dressing my kids on holidays for I can not even tell you how long (way before I was even married) so I was VERY excited to go get the boys matching Easter outfits! I love that I get to buy TWO now (well lets be honest not pay for 2 but you get the point) It's almost a game to find super cute boy clothes because unlike the girl clothes that I swear you can find everywhere you have to hunt for stud like clothes--anyways I think my boys look very HANDSOME! Ok I know clothes have nothing to do with the real reason of Easter so we will move on--We started out our day with Trey having to hunt around the house for his Easter basket and goodies from the Easter Bunny! Then we went to church-which was so nice to go as our new family of 4!!! Trey decided he was not going to go to nursery --our # came across the screen after 20 mins so Mark went and got him and brought him in. He actually sat on his lap the entire time and fell asleep--so we had 2 sleeping boys! From there we went to MiMi and PaPa's house where all of the aunties oodled over how cute the boys looked (when there are 5 aunts and only 2 nephews total this can get a bit out of hand) Trey also got a Easter basket of goodies here! Then we went to GiGi and Poppie's house! Boston & Trey got 2 more Easter baskets here because your great grandma and GiGi made you one-- plus we had a egg hunt!!!! There were 24 eggs hidden all for Trey to find!!!! (Can't wait til there are some cousins to run around with) Thanks so much to both our families for good food, family time, & spoiling the boys!!!!!

Dying Eggs & Egg Hunt #2

Today we had a Easter egg hunt with our "Hot Mama's" play group and then went to GiGi's house to dye eggs with Aunt Shayla, Great-Grandma, and GiGi! You of course did great at the egg hunt running to get as many as you could. I believe we had around 20 toddlers show up and there were 150 eggs???? I think. You also learned quickly that the eggs were filled with jelly beans so we stopped along the way to eat every so often. Dying eggs was comical with you!!! We would give you a white egg and you would dunk it with your whole hand in the bowl of dye and immediately want another one!!!! I am so glad we did not do this on Easter because now I have 2 days to get this color off of you for Easter pics because as of right now you look like The Hulk!!!! Then after you realized the dye was not going to come off your hands you had a mini panic attack-lol-a look of panic came across your face and you you shook your hands crazy and wanted us to wipe them over and over.
