NEVER Grow up, Please

This morning Anna Beth decided that she needed to make breakfast for her puppy. She did it all herself, even down to getting her own bib, fork, and spoon. Then she decided that she needed to make breakfast for herself and mommy, too. I love her imagination. I hope it stays that way for a very long time! Please...never grow up!!!









New Family Member!

Welcome Emmalee Carol Claibourne, " Emma"! We rejoice to have a new healthy niece/cousin!! She was born March 24th at 12:42 p.m. She weighed 7 pounds and 10 1/2 ounces, and is ADORABLE! Congrats to Chris, Amy, and Big Brother, Wyatt. We are so excited for you guys.















Our First Warm Day at the Park! Happy Birthday Daddy!

We met daddy at the park for lunch on his birthday. It was a beautiful day, and they had a blast. It was a nice break from work for daddy that day!





















Fun with Granddad and Grandma

Granddad and Grandma came for a visit while on Spring Break. It involved lots of playing!! They had so much fun, and I enjoyed the visit as well. Anna Beth was sad to see them leave and woke up the next morning asking when she gets to see them again!!! They said it would be summer soon, so she asked me if it was summer yet!!

UPDATES UPDATES!!

Sorry I have been bad about updating these last few months.
Our family had been incredibly busy. The kids
continue to amaze us daily. They are such a joy!
Make sure to scroll down for several updates.
Tyler's 9 mth pictures.

What a big handsome sweet boy. He turned 9 mths old on February 2nd.
The month of February was so eventful for us! Tyler started taking off in
crawling and just the other day started to pull up, too! Before we know it, he will be walking.



HAPPY BIRTHDAY WYATT!!
Cousin Wyatt turned 3 on February 13th. What a big boy! It seems
like yesterday that he was just born. In a month he will welcome a
new baby "seester" as he calls her! (stay tuned for that big day!)

"We want to ride the train!"
That is what Anna Beth and Wyatt beg for everytime they go the mall.
This time they wanted Papa to ride with them instead of Shaun!
They would have it no other way. Those kiddos love trains!






Wyatt and Tyler....cute cousins!


Here, Daddy...Here!
That is what Anna Beth says when she wants to give you something!
Just insert your name where Daddy is. :) This is Anna Beth giving
Daddy a special cookie that she made him for Valentine's day.


Valentine Cookie Decorating!

I recently joined the MOPS program which is "Mother's of Preschoolers". I get to meet with other local moms twice a month for breakfast while the kids play in a seperate area. It is a nice treat! This was a playdate that we had to decorate Valentine Cookies! Anna Beth loved it. Our cousins Sharon and Callie were there too.








She wanted to make a silly cookie for Daddy,
a Minnie Mouse cookie for herself, and
a special one for Noni! It was achieved with a
little help from Mommy of course.





This is her praying before lunch!




And trying out her tasty treat!













Sweet girls working hard!
