school bus

Grandma C. took Violet for a special day on the school bus.  Violet was beaming with a big girl glow, she loved every minute.  Grandma drove her to the junior high where Violet got to go through her lunch line and then she did a performance of ABC's on the stage, it was adorable.  Thanks Grandma!

9 months old

Ray turned 9 months old yesterday!  He is 20 pounds and has 4 teeth.  He seems to be days away from crawling and I have a feeling he is going to be fast, so our routines are about to change with him on the move.  He is still saying Da Da and his newest thing is waving bye bye.  He still smiles about 99.8% of the time, he is so much fun!

Happy Birthday Lucy!

Yesterday was Lucy's 5th birthday!  The day was perfect and all her grandparents were here last night to celebrate with her.  Happy Birthday Lucy, we love you!



I had to post this picture so you could see my two handsome boys in the same shoes!  How cute is that?!?

a tea party

Today was Lucy's birthday tea party with her school girlfriends.  It was adorable and fun to see all the girls celebrating for my Lucy.  All the girls brought their favorite doll to the party, and the dolls had a tea party too!  The girls painted their own tea cups, played toss the tea bag into the tea cup and had "tea," of course.  We love you LuLu!

8 months

We were in Florida when Ray turned 8 months old! We can hardly believe it, time really does fly.  Also, when I got the 8 month sticker out, I realized I forgot to do the 7 month picture...oops.  3rd child.

Spring Break at Buni's

We are back from Spring Break at Buni's!  It was so awesome, all 12 of us were there for the first time and it was jam packed fun, okay hectic at times, but we loved every second.  Ray took his first swim, he loved kicking around in the water.  We celebrated Lucy, Shawn and Julie's birthdays.  The Easter Bunny made it to the beach and put out 144 turquoise eggs for the kiddos.  We had a date day and night, bliss.  Oh, did I mention the beach time, building sand castles and shelling, so relaxing with the cabana on the sand.  Buni had one last surprise on our last night she had lanterns for all the kids to send off into the sky, just like Rapunzel, Lucy and Violet were beyond happy.  Life at the beach is so nice, I hope you all get to enjoy some family time this spring.  Thanks for a great vacation Buni!  A lot of pictures are attached, I had a hard time picking from the hundreds. :)

LuLu had her friend from school over today who happens to also be Lucy!  We had some St. Patrick's Day inspiration for our crafts and goodies with some face painting too!
