Easter Reflection 2009



I have been trying to get to the computer to write this post for 3 days now and finally I have just a couple minutes to it.

Easter is such a great day to take time and reflect on your life and what Jesus has done for you. He has done so much for me in my lifetime, and I am trully greatful that he gave his life for mine! Not only did he die for my sins, but he also took me out of a bad situation when I was little and put me with a family that took me in and has loved me like I was ment to be part of their family. I have no idea where I would be today if Jesus had not put me in the care of my Aunt Bonnie. I thank Jesus everyday for her! And with that, he has also given me the best family a girl could ask for. We are always their for eachother at the drop of a hat. I love my family more than they will ever know. I woould do anything for them! And on top of the best family, I also have the best friends a girl could ask for. They too have always been there for me and I thank them for that!
Jesus has given me a great church and church family that is always willing to help one another out. They are so excepting and we are very lucky to be members of By Grace. I love you guys!!

He has also given me 2 adorable little boys that are constantly making me laugh and smile! Not only are they adorable, but healthy and smart!

I also have been blessed with my smart, thoughtful, sweet hubby. He takes care of the boys and I , and is always making sure we have what we need. I know it is hard for him to be the soul bread winner, but it has allowed me to be at home with the boys all the time and I am very greatful for that.
So in closing, eventhough though easter seems to be more about the candy, egg hunting and Easter bunny, I remember that I have been so blessed in my life, because of Jesus and only him. He is always there and always watching out for me.

Feb. and March updates

So I know it has been over a month since my last blog, but these boys keep me busy! If I am not playing trucks, cars, doing laundry, doing dishes, or changing a diaper, then I am running errons, vaccuuming, or doing odds and ends of things. I seem to be always doing something and my only down time is when all the boys ( daddy too) are asleep in bed!

So anyway, JT had his b-day party (monster truck party of course) at Chuck E Cheese and he had a blast! The best party he has had yet! Now that he is 4 is is not napping anymore, unless he feels he needs a nap. Which is nice, because he goes to bed usually before 9pm now!



Christian...... so much changes with him everyday! He is now crawling inch worm style, but crawling and fast! He loves to go after JT's trucks, so Tom got him some baby trucks, so they could play trucks together, but he still wants JT's. :) He just had his 7th tooth brake through, so with 4 on top and 3 on bottom he has a great bite, as I know...LOL He is still a very happy little guy. He loves his brother and is always laughing at him. I love the relationship they have. I hope it never changes! He continues to eat everything I put in front of him. I hope that never changes as well, as JT is so picky and hardly eats anything I put in front of him....LOL



Below is a picture of them laying out and Christian's head is right at armpit level! He is going to be tall!


The weather here is so strange one minute it is cold and snowy, and the next is is sunny, hot and 75+ degrees out! Yes, I said snow. We had our 1st snow on Monday March 2, and then it was 80 dregrees on Sunday the 8th.... go figure. The snow wasn't much considering where Tom and I are from and are use to getting tons of snow. We only had about 2 inches and they closed the base and sent Tom home!!!!! That was so crazy. So anywasy, that is my update. I will try to be more regular form now on

4 years & 8 Months!!!

Let me first start off by saying, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUSTUS"!!! My big boy is now 4!!! What a day we had. We went to Bible study, then McDonalds for lunch, came home and played, then when Daddy got home we opened presents, then had pizza, played some and then did cupcakes. We are having a party for him on Sat. at Chuck E Cheese. The phone was ringing off the hook today for him. At one point as I was handing him the phone for someone else to wish him a Happy Birthday, he says to me, " but mom, people have been calling me all day" my reply was, " well honey it is your special day" he sighs and says, " ok" as he takes the phone. He did have a
great day we had though!





As for the 8 Months, that would be Christian. Tomorrow he will be 8 months!!! They are growing like weeds!!! He is now sitting by himself, has 6 teeth ( 4 top and 2 bottom) and is really trying to crawl. Here are some pics.
