I wanted to post a few pics of the special Mother's Day presents that I received this year.

Zac took Sam to Home Depot on Saturday morning and this is the project that they worked on. Sam chose Sweet Peas to plant for his mommy!

A special card and book mark

Me and my boys! This was taken after church and lunch. Needless to say, we had two tired boys that were not in the mood for pictures!

Mother's Day

Sunday was my third Mother's Day and as usual it was very special. I told Sam that the best Mother's Day gift is that I get to be his and Drew's mommy. I really am blessed in so many ways and so thankful for my little guys!! My morning started off great because Z didn't have to be at church for the early service. He took Drew and went to Hardee's to get me a biscuit. It doesn't take much to make me happy. When I came downstairs, Sam couldn't wait to give me his card. He told me Happy Mudder's day many times!!! :) After getting ready, we headed to church and then to eat with Z's family. Z let me rest most of the afternoon and we finished the day off with yogurt from Sweet Frog. Yum!

All in all, it was another wonderful Mother's Day and I am so thankful for the 2 little reasons I get to celebrate this day.

Cute!

Sam asks me all the time if I like snakes, bears, lions, tigers, etc... I tell him that I like those animals but I don't want to be close to one. They are okay to look at from a distance. Today after the same questions from Sam and the same answer from me, Sam told me this...

"Mommy if you don't like lions and bears, i will fight them before they get you."

Love that boy!!!!

Took the boys to Monkey Joe's today to bounce around for a little while. We met up with Sara and Laurie and their kids. They had such a good time and hopefully burned a lot of energy. Drew seemed a little off, just wanted me to hold him, I hope he is not getting sick!

We have had a good week. MOPS on monday and then I had a girl's night out that night at a friend's house. Then Tuesday and Wednesday, we hung around the house all day and of course church Wed. night. Hopefully Z will take tomorrow off and we can get in some family time!

Nice day, Z was off work, so he took Sam with him to run errands. I took Drew to the Dr. this morning to have his ears checked again. Thankfully everything looks great, so no tubes! We had a nice evening, dinner at Champ's and a little shopping. On the way home, Drew was crying (it was bedtime), the next thing we hear is Sam using his baby voice say to Drew, "it's okay, we are going to get a bunk bed one day." Oh my gosh, that child is so sweet!!

Another Thursday, another playdate. We went to Robious Landing park today. As usual, we were pretty much the only people there, which is why this park is so great. The girls can actually sit down and talk and the kids run around and play. It was a little on the cold side, so we ended the time together with lunch at Alyssa's.

Longing for Spring

Today was such a beautiful day, so we decided to spend a good portion of it outside. Sam has been asking to play baseball lately, so we did that for a little while. Drew sat in the wagon and watched. He actually sat still!!! Then we took a walk with the wagon. I also raked the leaves in our front yard. There weren't that many, but it looked so much better after a little clean up! After lunch and naps we decided to go back out to play. I let Sam run into the woods a little ways by himself. This was quite fun for the little guy. We also spent some time talking with our neighbors. Sam informed them that we saw "a huge hawk in the tree, a HUGE one". Here are few picture from our morning. Please excuse Sam's hair, he needs a haircut desperately!!!




Drew loves his dog!


Drew is constantly getting in trouble for going to our tv. This is the face I get when I tell him NO NO!!! Seriously, this child is going to be the end of me. :)



Rocking together!
