Flowers!

We have tried several times to get to Lowe's and get some flowers for some pots we have. The first time, Glade threw up as we pulled into the parking lot. The second time, the kids were being so grouchy we didn't make the stop. Finally on Sunday we were able to get out and get some flowers. They were great helpers pouring the dirt into the pots and helping put the flowers in. Now, they love to go out and look at the flowers. We haven't had to water because of all the rain, but I'm sure they will love helping with that too!

This was Glade Friday night. He was running a fever and not feeling good at all! Poor baby!




Glade took a picture of the sky!Helping put the plant in the dirt.

Addison's turn.


So pretty!



A little fun with the jeep. They really like to go off roading,
but this jeep doesn't drive to well in the grass!


Water Fun

Last Friday Glade and Addison had their friend Addy over. Addison and Glade were talking about their friend Addy coming over all week. Finally the day came! They had so much fun playing in the water together. Even a week later they talk about Addy and want her to come over. They get to see Addy at school every Tuesday and Thursday. Glade and Addison are just a week older than their good friend. I'm sure we will have more playdates this summer!
Water fun!The 2 Addison's digging their toes in the mud.

I love this one of Addison A. She is in the air about to land in the water on her bottom. Doing what we call a seat drop!

Introducing...

Baby III!
(This is a picture of a picture since we don't have a scanner! It's not that great in real life either.)
We went for our sonogram yesterday and found we have one little baby growing. We are so excited about this little one. There is a little sadness though, in the fact that both embryos did not make it. I know that God is working in our lives and He knows what we need and having twins again would have been a huge stress on my body and our whole family. I am praying that this pregnancy will be normal and complication free! I am hoping for NO bedrest and to deliver full term sometime the beginning of December!

Addison's Body Art

Addison decided to color the other day. She colored all over herself. I'll let the pictures tell you the rest!
Here she is showing us what she did! She colored her legs...

Her arms...


and her belly!
Sweet little girl proud of her work!

Easter

We spent Easter weekend at my parent's house. The kids had a blast playing outside. My parents have gotten lots of great toys for them to play with. They have two battery operated cars for them drive, a swing set and some other riding toys. All thanks to my dad's craigslist addiction! The days were lots of fun, the nights not so fun. Addison decided she wouldn't sleep at night. So, neither Tim nor I got sleep at night! Since we have been home, she is sleeping really good. (Knocking on wood as I type this!) We all got ready to go to church. Got the kids loaded in the car. Even got almost to church when Addison got sick. All over her pretty dress. So we turned around and went back to the house. She was fine the rest of the day. I think she had some sinus drainage that upset her stomach.
Look what the Bunny brought us!Glade wearing Pappy's hat and driving the bike

The preschool Easter Egg Hunt


Addison knew what to do right away. She filled her basket with eggs!

Glade would pick up the eggs and shake them.




Addison got a little nervous with the Easter Bunny there.

This is what happens when Glade gets into the Easter candy on the way home!



Picnic at the park

A couple weeks ago we went to the park for lunch. The kids had a great time playing. Glade found an ant bed he thought needed to be kicked over. He only got 4 ant bites. Addison decided she needed to pull her pants down...who knows why.

Pictures, Pictures, Pictures

Yes, it is 4:30 AM and NO, I am not asleep like I should be. My super cute, super sweet daughter decided she didn't want to sleep tonight. So, after me rocking her, Tim rocking her, a good dose of Motrin and some ear numbing drops just in case...she wanted water! Now she is tucked in bed, all is quiet and I am...updating the blog! Here are recent pictures from the last couple of weeks.
Today, Glade decided to ride his bike like Daddy. With gloves!

Addison gave it a spin too!


Camera distractions while I get lunch ready after church


I just love her expressions in the next few pictures. She definitely has a good personality.







Scooping the colored rice.


Last weekend we went to our cousin Ciara's championship basketball game. They played hard, but lost by 1 point. We are still proud of her and her team! Way to go Wildcats!

Glade wanted bows like Addison, but settled for a hat.

Glade found the cookie jar.




And yes, all that bed rest paid off.

Well, my super sweet daughter is up again! UGH!
