Fountains

Last week we took a trip to the market street fountains to have a little playdate. It is such a great place to go and let the kids wear themselves out!! It's even nice when Mommy gets a little bit wet. We hadn't been over there since last year and I wasn't sure how Jayce would react. I was impressed with how much he LOVED It!!!! Ryleigh not so much. She didn't like it when other kids would splash her in the face. I also think the water was a little bit chilly for her. Oh what a great time we had! We will definitely be going back several times this summer.

Daddy's Softball league

For several weeks Tuesday nights were busy with going to Daddy's softball games. There were a few weeks when we couldn't go due to the games being too late for his babies. Jayce LOVED watching Daddy playing "baseball" and cheering him on! The first game we went to, I swear that Ryleigh said, "Go Daddy!". It was pretty hilarious, the lady behind us thought she said the same thing too. The kids really enjoyed being outside and getting some fresh air. I can't wait till next year when we get to go and cheer Daddy on again!

Happy Graduation!

This weekend, me and my family traveled to Hammond, LA to see my little brother graduate. My super, great brother GRADUATED from college!!! GO BRO! I am so proud of him and can't believe that he's already that old to be graduated and pretty much an adult :) He graduated from Southeastern Louisiana University. All day Saturday it poured down rain!!! So it made graduation not quite so easy to take all kinds of pictures. We just snapped a few and then headed for cover. Sunday it finally quite raining long enough for us to have a party for my brother and his girlfriend's brother, who graduated from high school. It was good to meet all of his girlfriend, Caitlin's, family.

tired of sitting and waiting

Jeff about to walk onto the stage.
THE graduate!!!!

Jayce jumped into a puddle of mud and slipped and fell. It was pretty funny, but he was SOAKED!

11 months old!!!!! EEEKKKKKK

Oh my gosh.....the time is FLYING by!!!!! I can't believe my little girl is now 11 months old and in one short month she will turn ONE! Where HAS the time gone? Month ten was fun. She FINALLY learned how to crawl. She is now all over the place and even stands. While she stands, she sometimes walks around things. I don't think this girl is going to crawl for long. She is also such a talker!!! She can say several things. Some of the words she says are: mama, dada, daddee (which we aren't sure if it's daddy or doggie), uh-oh, all done, na-na (which I think means No), ba-ba(which is bye bye), points to things and says, "that". I can't remember if she can say anything else right now. She also loves to play with her brother. She loves to tattle on him (in her own way)when he takes a toy or does something she doesn't like. She is very sassy!!! She can also blow kiss, wave, claps, give kisses, walk if someone holds her hands, spin in circles and oh so much more. She throws her binky out of her bed so that she won't have to go to sleep and will say, "uh-oh" and then cry for it. My absolute favorite is that she lays her head on my shoulder and pats me on the back. Oh how I love this precious little girl!

Fun in the sun

A couple weeks ago, my awesome Dad found Jayce a super cool picnic table. I've been on the lookout for one and he found a lady selling one on the side of the table. HOW AWESOME! What's even cooler is that it's not only a picnic table. The top of the table opens up and has two sections. So you can either put water or sand in it, or even both. Jayce absolutely LOVES it!!!! We had Morgan and Cullen come over one morning so that they could enjoy our fun new table as well. A great new fun toy!!!! Just in time for some Summer fun!





Momma's Day

I can't believe that this is my third Mother's Day. Crazy how time has just flown by. I am one blessed Momma with two beautiful kids! I am also super blessed to be able to stay at home with them every day! We have so much fun each day and I couldn't imagine my life without them.

This year, we spent the day at the lake. We spent Mother's Day with my parents, Layne's parents, Layne's Aunt Becky, her daughter Lisa along with Lisa's husband Anton and their precious baby girl Abigail. We also got to spend this Mother's Day with Layne's Granny and Papa. I didn't get pics of everyone, but we did have a good time.

Saturday night was a rough one for me. Ryleigh was not feeling well and she didn't sleep much at all that night. I then had to get up to volunteer at church the next morning. Let's just say it was rough. We had like 12 three and four year olds in our class. It was nuts! :) I'm glad that we had so many kids, but it was tough since I hadn't had much sleep the night before. To make things worse, MY SON didn't want to stay in his classroom at church and was making things even harder on me. After church we headed back up to the lake and enjoyed our time with family.

Celebrating with our wonderful MOMS!!

Ryleigh kept blinking when the flash went off and so we couldn't get a pic with her eyes open.


Jayce wanted nothing to do with taking a picture with his Mommy on Mommy's day. He still wasn't feeling like himself.
But this little love, LOVES LOVES LOVES her mommy. She would hang out with me all day long if she could. She only wanted me on Mom's Day. I love her smile in the picture. She felt awful this day and I'm surprised we got such a great pic of her. Oh she's such a sweet sweet baby girl.
