Pic overload

Here are the rest of Michael. Some look very similar, but I gotta post em for Mom and Dad. He isn't always serious but it was hard to get a decent smile from him. Better yet it was hard to get pics with his eyes open and looking at the camera...and there was NO flash.

All taken with the 85mm 1.8 lense.

My lil bro

A few senior pics of Michael I took this weekend. I have many more to edit, but these are my favs so far.

Wonderful!

The boys started preschool today. This is the only decent pic I could get of the 2 of them. Heaven forbid Cole hold Parker's hand. Geezy pete. Parker LOVED it and was so excited. He even says he's going tomorrow. Just Tuesday and Thursday buddy. Soon enough you'll be
going everyday...eek 1 more year! Cole on the other hand didn't have so much fun. He missed
his mommy except when they went to the gym and played with balls. He was happy then. I on the other hand enjoyed my 4 hours greatly. I got a ton of errands done that would have taken
a lot longer if I had 1 or 2 kids in tow. I did, however, have a little tearful session just after I left
driving down the road. It was weird not having at least one with me. Got over that really quick though.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy 32nd Birthday Daddy!

We hope you're having a GREAT day

despite all the whining! ;)

All our love,

Mommy, Parker, and Coley

Good times!

This week we've been busy with different activities. Some that were an extension of P's special day. lol The kid cracks me up...seriously! He's not so patiently waiting for gymnastics in the morning. He let me know he wants to really go everyday. Ahhh, nope not forking over that kind of money. Sorry dude. On Tuesday he got to meet his new teacher for preschool. I think he's going to do pretty well and have a great time too. He even has a friend in his class. While there
I contemplated signing up Coley in the 1's class. Well since she said they would make room if I wanted. Needless to say, it didn't take too long and it was done. I will officially have 8 hours a week to MYSELF. HALLELUJAH!! On Thursdays I'll be involved with MOPS and a women's bible study... so looking forward to that. On another good note I've been referred by friends for photography. A little nervous but really excited about it too. I also have one lined up for a business in a couple months. So maybe this is it. ;) It's a GOD thing...lp;)

And one of Mr. Mischievous in the toy box teasing Parker with the truck saying, "Parker, here you go!" pulls it back and says, "mine." Brotherly love.

Happy Birthday P!

My oldest is 4 today. Wow! Four years ago God blessed us with this little guy in our lives. We are so thankful that He entrusted us to care for you. You are truly a blessing Pman and we LOVE you to the moon and back. Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!

All our love,

Mommy, Daddy, and Coley

Gymnastics!

I finally did it! After constant reminders from a very nice neighbor, I signed the boys and myself up for gymnastics. I guess I've been trying to avoid because "they shouldn't be that old already" where it's time for weekly scheduled activities. Much to my dismay and the kids enjoyment, it is. I took Parker for a trial last night he LOVED every bit of it. Coley didn't like one bit of having to WAIT in the lobby. He shrieked at the top of his lungs like only my Coley does. And WOW you should have seen the nasty looks coming from the other parents in the packed lobby. My lord you would have thought I had ten heads. Yep, I have a screaming child, you've been there to my friend. DEAL WITH IT! So we exited the building until the said child calmed down a bit. As soon as we walked back in I asked what type of classes they had for Cole. Mommy and me. Sign us up and when can we come. Today was the day where both boys would be in the gym together in their seperate classes. It was AWESOME. Coley loved it because he could check in on "Kahker" as he calls him. Calling out his name when he wasn't too busy running to the next activity. So it's a date me and my 2 boys every Friday at 10. I'm lovin it.
