The Chronicles

For Easter this year my parents came in and we went over to Reif's grandparents house, that his mother owns now, where he used to hunt eggs as a child. The kids loved hunting eggs and we had a beautiful lunch. We also had some sweet friends join us this year too! We have a great Easter! And hope that everyone else did as well!

The best family shot we could get.

(If you can't tell, someone was not in the best picture taking mood!)

My parents came up for Easter and we visited the Dallas Arboretum on that Friday. I was really looking forward to getting some pretty Easter pictures of my 3 beautiful children, & thought how perfect to have both of my parents there to help! But even the best laid plans don't always work out! I don't have one picture of the 3 of my children together! Apparently Julzie wasn't in a picture mood. She ran and screamed everytime we tried to get them all together. I do have a couple cute ones of my boys together though.

Better late than never! Mr. is 4 months and 3 weeks, so I am a bit late in posting these,

but life just passes me by sometimes!

Lately Juliet and Thatcher have been taking more time to really get down and be with Bishop. It's so cute and I just love happening apon moments like these...

Our cuddle bugs...

(I love catching moments like this!)

Happy Little Brother!

Better late, than never! Ok, we're 3 months going on 8 or 9 I fear! Our little man is growing so super fast! I wish I could make him slow down, but all I can do is just take in every moment, which is what I am desperately trying to do. We are all so in love and loving having a little one in the house again! Here are some of his 3 months pictures!

Some dear friends of ours gave him this little outfit with his name on it.

I just love it!

(Thank you Clemens family!)

Thatcher is following in his daddy's footsteps and has started playing soccer this year! I'm no going to lie, our first game included not only excitment and husseling, but many, many tears as well! I think we got ourselves a bit overwhelmed, not to mention that it was absolutely freezing that day. ( I would have been pretty miserable too!) All in all is was really fun/funny to watch, 8 little boys, four and under running around the field with no previous soccer experience, sports knowledge or even a goalie! Thatch has done really well too! He has made 5 goals between his last two games (Although 2 of them didn't count! We're not going to tell him though. It's tough to listen to the whitle and just "stop" playing when you are being chased by other little men!)

Trying to stay warm, while waiting to go in again.

PS

I would like to share with you how we got our team name. We were going to be The Cheetas, but apprently another team had already claimed that name, SO instead of choosing another name from the millions that are out there, they just threw a BIG in front of it and we are now The "Big" Cheetas! Our crazy creative are we!

So Thatch had western day at school! How awesome does my little cowpoke lookl!

So cute that Julzie wanted to give him a little smooch!
