Playdate



One day last week I had 4 boys, 4 and under at my house.  They were the cutest things ever!  I was keeping Mac for Kim, and William and Wesley for my friend Kristen.  They all were great and played so well together.  Henry loves standing on top of his dresser and looking at each of their trophy's.  I had to snap a picture of him before I told him to get down!

Fishing Tournament












Last Saturday the boys were in a fishing tournament.  The tournament was to raise money for the American Cancer Society.  They got to fish for 2 hours and you got a trophy for biggest, smallest and most fish caught. Unfortunately we didn't catch any fish.  Apparently we were not in the hot spot.   Walker asked if he would get a trophy for just having fun.  I thought that was so cute.  That was what it was all about.  They loved it!  The picture of the little girl is Caroline.  I had a previous post of a love letter that she sent Walker.  I think that they are still little sweethearts.  A will share a cute little story.  Caroline was fishing with us and one of her girlfriends.  Caroline kept saying, "I want Walker to help me fish b/c he is good and he knows how to do it".  She gave the pole to Walker and he accidently threw her pole in the water and it sunk.  Eric and I were dying laughing.  It was so funny.  Here she was talking about how good Walker was and then the first time he threw her pole in the water.  She didn't seem to care and never blamed him.  She just said that her pole was real slippery.  I think that most girls would get mad and cry, but not Caroline.  That really makes me think she has a little something for Walker.  We had such a fun day and were glad that we were able to help raise money for such a good cause.

Walker's First Sock Hop








Walker's school had a Sock Hop last Friday.  This was a party to celebrate all of their hard work this year for  reading!  The kids had a blast!  They danced in the gym floor to 50's music, had coke floats, popcorn, cookies, and all kinds of special treats!  I will have to say all of the boys were so cool looking!

Rockhounds win the championship













Walker's baseball team won the county championship!  They were super excited!  The team that they beat was undefeated.  Walker had an amazing game.  He was 2 for 2 with a triple, a double, and 3 RBI.  (Eric told me what to put there...lol).  Walker was so excited about this game.  He really wanted to get a 2nd trophy this season.  He really is a good little baseball player, we hope that he keeps it up.  Although, he is really wanting to play football in the fall.  Mama is hoping that maybe he will change his mind!  We just love spending nights at the ball field!  However, at the end of the season we were ready for a little break!  

Awana's Award Night 2010






This is the first year that the boys have participated in the Awana's program at our church!  They really learned a ton of verses out of the bible!  They both completed their book!  They looked forward to going to church every Wednesday night!  John Lawrence and Mac started going to Awana's after the first of the year. They loved it and learned a lot as well.  I think this is going to be something that the boys are going to want to do from here on out!  It is a great program that our church offers!

Henry's last day of Preschool






Henry had such a fun last day of school.  They had a water day.  They had big water slides that were rented, snow cone machine, and fun outside games!  He thought that he was so cool that he could wear his swimsuit to school!  He had an outstanding year!  He had the most wonderful teachers, Mrs. Sue and Mrs. Veronica.  We are going to miss them next year!  I can't believe that my baby is going to be in Pre K next year!  

Foster baby at 24 weeks, Mama 24 weeks





Can't believe that I am now 24 weeks!  Time has surely flown by and it really needs to slow down a bit this summer!  There is a lot on my to do list that needs to get checked off before Sept.  There again, this has been another wonderful pregnancy so far, praise God!  I have been feeling marvelous!  Sweet little Foster just moves around all the time!  He has been waking me up in the morning moving around!  It is the best way to wake up for sure!  I love the ultra sound pictures!  The whole time my doctor was doing the ultrasound little Foster was picking up his foot and sucking his toes!  I literally wanted to jump in my belly and kiss him up!  I have the most wonderful doctors imaginable.  The doctor wasn't planning on doing an ultrasound this visit.  He was getting ready to listen to the heartbeat and said, "Hey, do you want to see him?  Let's go to the ultrasound room and check him out".  Of course I want to see him.  He is doing another ultrasound at 28 weeks so that Eric can see him since he wasn't at the last appointment.  So far, we have done an ultrasound at every visit!  I love seeing my baby every 4 weeks!  We are all so excited to meet little man and add another bundle of joy to our lives!  We love you Foster Baby!!!!

Boys running the bases at Turner Field

Free T-shirts that say "I ran the bases at Turner Field"

The fundraiser for the boy's baseball teams was to sell tickets to a Braves game.  We bought some of those tickets.  It was such a fun day for all the kids.  Each of their teams were there and they got to walk around the field with their team.  They both enjoyed watching the game.  We thought that we would have to take breaks during the game to walk around a bit, but they both were so interested in the game that they sat there for the whole 9 innings!  At the end of the game all the kids got to run the bases.  It was a pretty neat experience for the boys.  I must say, I was pretty amazed myself of how big and how awesome the grass was on the field!  It is something that they will never forget!
