Most exciting baseball game of the season!

Henry has to wear a baseball jersey pretty much to every game. We let him wear Walker's jersey's from past seasons. They are pretty big on him but he loves to be like his big brother!



During the tournament, we beat a undefeated team that hasn't lost a game in 2 years! It was super exciting!!! I really just love being a boys mom, I have many many more years of this to enjoy! We are just getting started


At the end of each game the coach gives stars for the kids to put on their hats. Of course Henry is dying to get one. The coaches were great by letting him be part of the team. At every game Henry had to dress the part and take his bat, glove, and ball! He gets to play in the fall and he can't wait!!



Walker getting his star


What can I say? I have 2 boys




Preschool Graduation


Can 't believe my baby is done with preschool. It really has flown by! It seems like yesterday he was just going to mother's morning out. It is bittersweet! I know in a blink of an eye he is going to be graduating from high school....I just wish sometimes the clock would stand still. However every stage is very exciting! We are so proud of him!

Welcome to Henry's Barber Shop....

I about had a heart attack when I walked around the corner and saw this. It took me a minute to realize that they were play scissors whew!! The whole set up was really cute, Walker was sitting on his drumset stool. They are double trouble!

No Training Wheels!

Walker can now officially ride his bike without training wheels. We took them off and it took him a few times with Eric behind and then he was off. All he wants to do now is ride his bike! We are looking forward to the beach this year with Walker and JL being able to both ride their bikes now. Eric even has him riding with him while he runs. He has been doing 2 miles lately and does it all! He sure is tired when he is done though.

Best Friends

This is the picture that we finally got to give to my mom for her birthday. All of the boys did great this day! We bribed them with chocolate chip cookies if they did good and well they did. She loved the picture and it turned out awesome once put on canvas!

Mother's Day 2009





Mother's Day is to me one of the most important holidays that we celebrate! Being a mother is something that I have always dreamed of my whole life. I remember when I was going to the hospital to have my first child Walker, I thought that this was the biggest accomplishment I would achieve in my life. My was a right or what? It is the most rewarding things to me. Anyways, the boys and Eric made mother's day so special to me. We went to church in the morning and then they took me out to cracker barrel. I love this place because it is so cozy and it makes you feel like you are eating at your grandmother's house. Then they got me 2 rose bushes, and a crepe myrtle tree to plant in my back yard. We spent the rest of the afternoon planting my new things, and doing our first ever garden. It was such a special day spent with my husband and babies! I will always remember my tree and my bushes came from my boys. Also, in the picture is a deal that I got that I had to share with you. I love getting deals! On Saturday the day before Mother's Day we were on our way to Walker's baseball game. and we passed a furniture consignment place. Eric and I were in two separate cars and I was behind him and he called me and told me that I should stop and check it out. So, I stopped and needless to say I got the deal of a century. When I walked up I saw these two chairs and fell in love. They feel like you are resting in a hammock. I didn't see a price tag so I just figured they were out of my price range, so I just continued looking at other things. I ended up getting some little things and as I was walking out they caught my eye again. I decided I should just ask the price. The lady said, "Well make me an offer". I am not good at that so I just told her that I didn't know. She then said, "I'll give you them both for 20 dollars". I was blown away. I was in Eric's car, and had no cash which was all she would take. I ran across to an atm and got cash, ran back and paid for them but told her that I would have to come get them later in my van. After the game Eric and I went back and got them. She wanted me to know that I got a great deal. She said that she could have sold them 15 times. She was like these are really nice, they are Nags Head Hammocks. I knew then that I had gotten a deal but wasn't really sure how good of a deal until Eric pulled them up on the Internet. What I got for 20 dollars added up to over 700 dollars. Plus, they have just been re roped. Deal or what? I know it was a long story but I just had to tell how the whole thing happened. Needless to say, it was a wonderful wonderful Mother's Day Weekend! I love all my boys!! Thanks
