Easter

 We had about one minute to take a picture before we had to leave for church.  Wes was extra wiggly and then he just bursts out,  "I have to go teeeeeteeeeee!"  So needless to say I didn't get many good ones!

The "gotta go"  picture!

We hunted a few chocolate eggs in the house that morning before heading out the door for church.  Then after church we went to some friends house for lunch and a big easter egg hunt.  Wes had a blast and left tired, sweaty,  dirty and with a basket full of eggs.

Cute Prayers

Wes has started saying the cutest prayers lately, you just never know what he's going to say.  Here was tonights:

"Dear God,
Thank you for will and andrew while on they're trip home.  They live far far away.
Thank you for my room, and my bathroom and my Trains.
Thank you for all my woodys and buzzes.
Thank you for my spaghetti and ALL my meatballs.
Thank you for all my pajamas.
And for no tornados.
Amen."

Spring

Spring arrived early and we've been enjoying it!

Wes loves to play superman with "super dog".  Travis on the other hand usually looks pretty annoyed.

 We tried a new Burger restaurant and Wes loved it.  Why would he not when he got to finish off Jon's chocolate milkshake, my root beer float and Jon's coke!

 We've enjoyed many picnics, played baseball in the yard and spent many mornings at the parks.  This boy loves to play outside and starts asking to go out just shortly after waking up!  One afternoon after he got home from school we played outside until Jon got home.  Literally we played everything possible:  baseball, football, soccer, tennis, golf, rode his scooter and bike, and walked to the park.  And I don't know why I'm so tired at night...

We made a trip to birmingham where it was nice to see family and play/visit with some old friends.  And to finally get our Bum of a renter out of the townhouse which was the stressful and real reason for our visit.  Now lets all just pray that we can finally sell it in the months to come!

Big News!

March has flown by and been busier than anticipated.   I'm happy to finally get the chance to reveal our secret that Baby #2 is due mid-september!  Although its probably not much of a secret cause we've told some and others could tell (yes ALREADY, its going to be a long summer!).  I was 14 weeks yesterday and I went back to the Dr. today and everything is going well and right on track.  Wes is excited, he cracks up if you tell him there's a baby in my tummy.  He thinks we're joking, but he'll find out soon enough!

Wes was a little surprised at first!

A typical Saturday morning.

Our Saturdays all start out the same:

7am. Wes dressed and ready for the day in our bed asking way too many questions.  This boy loves saturdays!

We cooked some breakfast, relaxed and headed out to try a new park that was a big hit! I've got to give it the music city they have some really good parks and were ready for warmer weather so we can enjoy them more.

Funny Sayings of Wes

Wes has really been talking up a storm lately.  In fact he NEVER stops which is exhausting! If he does stop that usually means you better check on what he's up to.  Here are a few of the funny things he's said:

While watching a movie the other night, they said something about a women and he turns to me and says "Mom, I need a woman."

While dressed up like Buzz lightyear:  "Mom you be woody,  Where's your woody dress? You could ask for one for christmas!"

Wes and I had gone to the zoo so when Jon got home I told him to tell Daddy what we had done that day.  to which Wes exclaimed- "We went to Disney World!"  I think we'll just play along with that one and save lots of money over the years!

I asked Wes what he learned about in Bible class and he told me Barbie and Ken.  (They had learned about Adam and Eve and had a Barbie and Ken doll)   Too much toy story???

While putting him to bed one night:  "Mom there's nothing scared about,  Travis keeps monsters away."

When we get onto him for talking back or saying something not nice he'll say.  "Ohhh I was just kidding."
I think that only got him out of trouble the first few times, we've caught on now.

Lazy Saturday
