Sweetness

This picture is a little fuzy, but I couldn't resist.  Those first smiles are hard to get captured.  Almost 3 weeks old.  This little girl has melted our hearts.  She only has been on this earth a short time, but feels like she has been with us forever.  I may not know what sleep is anymore, but sister you are worth it.

1st Grade

I am not sure how we got here so fast.  I thought kindergarten was rough. 1st grade was even tougher.  Cooper wanted to ride the bus this year, so we are trying it out.  It picks up right in front of our house.  Not having to get four people out of the house by 8:15 in the morning makes it kind of worth it.  Cooper keep saying the week before he wasn't ready and didn't want summer to be over, but at back to school night he said it was good to be back.  Carson sure misses him a lot, having Cooper gone all day.  All day school is hard on mom also.  I was trying to fight back the tears until the bus came, but once I got in the house I couldn't hold back anymore. To make things harder Carson woke up and went through the house yelling for Cooper.  We are two days in and he still asks every morning were Cooper is. We love you Cooper and are so proud of you.  You make a very handsome first grader and please stop growing up so fast.

 

Makenna Marie

Our little miss Makenna arrived on Friday August 3rd.  She weighed 8 lbs 4 oz and was 20.5 inches long. Everything went perfect and we even were able to leave to hospital the next day.  Cooper and Carson are doing great with her.  She is so beautiful and such a blessing to our family. We love you so much Makenna, thanks for choosing us!!

Someone else turned 30!

Jason is now 30!!!!  I scheduled him to do iFly, much safer than the real thing.  Although sky diving is something he really wants to do.  To scary for this wife.  I love you honey.  Here is to many, many more. You are an amazing father and husband.

Kindergarten Graduation

Hard to believe the school year is over.  Can't believe we will have a first grader.  Being at school all day will be an adjustment for both of us.  He did so well and had a great teacher.  Cooper has said that he is sad school is out.  We will see if he is still staying that once summer is over and it is time to go back.  Mom and Dad are very proud of you buddy. Thanks for being you!!!

Happy Mothers Day

Jason and the boys help put in this flower bed for me.  It helps the house look so much better. I also included a picture of the house, since I don't think I have one on the blog. Thanks guys, I love you all so much.

The big 30!!!

Jason took me to the Melting Pot for dinner for my 30th birthday.  I  have always wanted to try it. I can't put in words how fun it was.  This place is expensive, but so worth it.  Very romantic and great atmosphere.  A good place to go and splurge once in awhile.



And the best present ever.  This trip is in the works for next year.  When he told me I started crying, which in turn made him cry.  He is so sweet.  We have wanted to go since Cooper was born.  Best birthday ever, even if I do have to be 30!!!
