Oh Tooth Fairy -

Tied up and ready to go!

It's Gone! No tears - just surprise written all over that face!

Jackson has been waiting for so long to lose his first tooth. Finally last weekend a tooth decided it would loosen up a little. By this weekend he was ready for it to be out. He begged Jeremy to pull it for him. So....a little fishing line and a good tug and out it came - and flew across the kitchen! Austin found it for us on the floor. We would sure hate to miss the tooth fairy!

A poet - and didn't know it!

I just had to share the sweet and wonderful poem my husband wrote for me in my Valentine's card. It just sums up so much about our relationship and makes me reflect back on 10 1/2 years of marriage with a smile.

"You warm my buns.
You like my guns.
But best of all
you gave me three sons!"

Doesn't that just warm your heart?

Spring is in the air

Austin is my insect lover. He was so excited to find his first caterpillar of the season. This is our favorite time to be outside - watching the butterflies and hunting for other treasures

How could you not love that face! Our Maddie is a sweet, loving, family dog. She just wants to lick you all the time.

Hoodlums

I was throwing away a pair of trouser socks and they ended up being masks...the boys ran around the backyard acting quite crazy. Austin climbed the back fence and was trying to scare the poor people walking down Lakeline. Jeremy even got in on the action -

The things we do...

Austin and Ryan wanted to fix my hair...I let them brush it and they wanted me to have ponytails. They couldn't actually put the ponytail holders in my hair, but they grabbed the hair they wanted and I put the holder in. They even put a little one in the back with a barrette. They were so proud -Austin wanted to take pictures of my hair. I wore my hair like this for hours until the door bell rang :-) They kept telling me how much they loved my ponytails and that I looked pretty. Those boys will make great boyfriends some day - telling their girlfriend that she looks great even if her hair looks quite interesting!
