Color my Beard!

This is what happens when you turn your back to take a shower. Cinderella wanted a beard?!?!?

Legos Legos and More Legos

Hayden has become obsessed with Legos. And I mean obsessed. I think he eats, sleeps and breaths legos. Not only legos but Star Wars Legos. The only problem is that he can't build the figures all by himself. So it requires Mom or Dad (OK not Mom). I also think Dad doesn't mind too much putting them together with him. It is neat to think that Star Wars and Lego toys have stood the test of time. They are pretty fun to play with too.

Happy Easter!

These are so old but thought I needed to get caught up. This was from Easter this year.

Wow How times flies!

As I was walking Hayden to school this morning, it hit me how time flies. Hayden has 6 weeks left until Kindergarten is over. What you heard me he has almost finished Kindergarten. How did this happen, how did my baby get so big, where did the time go? As we approached the crosswalk he said he didn't need me to walk him to the door of school. Now I know I am 9 months pregnant but I about lost it, and had to hold the flood gates back. He didn't need me to walk him to the door and told me to stay on the other side of the street while he went into school. I thought that is not even school property. I can't even get on school property with you now. It is a hard enough time doing drop off in the car pool line but this kid was insane . I must of looked at him with the saddest eyes because he said "It's OK this time but when I'm a first grader I can do it all by myself." So there lies the delima you want your children to grow up, become independent, strong, and self thinkers. But for my own selfish reason I am OK for him to stay 6 years old and a Kindergartner. Actually I am OK for all of my kids to stay the age they are now. I feel they are at some of the best stages, I have a 6 year old, a 3 year old and about to have a newborn in a few weeks. OK well the newborn can grow a little bit, at least the age where we sleep through the night. But I wonder everyday where these beautiful kids will end up. Will they have a lot of friends, and will they be good friends? Will they cross over to the Dark Side or stay sweet and innocent? I guess I now understand the amount of worry my mom carries and still does. I hope I always have time to enjoy them and can remember to not worry too much about the little stuff. It makes you remember how blessed in life I am. God has shined down on our family and enriched us with this life. So I guess my point is to enjoy every moment and savor it. Like your mom says, time really does fly by.

Silly Hayden!

What do you do all day when you are stuck inside?

You Craft! We made everyone homemade Valentine Day Cards! We baked Cookies. And made marshmallow snacks. I think the kids got spoiled thinking we were going to be doing this everyday. I have enjoyed being home with the kids and doing fun projects but it's now time to get out of the house!

Snow Day!

I want to know how we can go from weather that is pure gorgeous. Mike was outside with the kids washing his motorcycle.

To being homebound with school canceled and 12 inches of snow on the ground. Are you kidding me? I guess that is pure Texas weather for ya! We did have some fun though playing in the snow. We built a snowman, made snow angels, and had a classic snowball fight. The kids loved every minute of it. After we convinced Ava it was OK to go outside in the snow.
