Natural's Kid of the Game

Last Friday night at the Naturals game Parker got to be the kid of game! He got a cool new shirt and a goodie bag, but the coolest part was getting to walk out on the field of a sold-out ballgame and hear everybody cheering for him! He took his picture with strike and the third baseman signed his ball. It was such a cool night for him!

Mine and Parker's Hot Date

A couple of weeks ago Presley got to to have her first sleep over... she spent the night with Pa and Nana. They had such a great time spending time with just her...Nana even taught her to hive high five. This also meant that I had time to spend with just my little man. We had such a great day just the two of us(he even got to pick his ensemble for the day)! We started our date with breakfast at Braums and yes, I even let him eat ice cream at 9:30 in the morning...he was in heaven! We then headed to Chuck E Cheese to play and then to the park. We had such a great time getting to spend this time together. I love my little man so much!

Look who's a full time walker!!!

I am so behind on blogging.... I guess for over 3 weeks now our little Presley has been cruising everywhere. She pretty much went from taking 2-3 steps to running! She is everywhere and thinks she is such a big girl! We are so proud of our baby girl! Please keep her in your prayers...she is having her adenoids removed and tubes in her ears on June 4th. It is the worst feeling knowing your baby has to have surgery!

Chuck E Cheese

Yesterday after church Papa and GG treated us all to a fun trip to Chuck E Cheese! The kids had a great time playing together. Thanks Papa and GG for a fun afternoon!

Happy Mothers Day

I just want honor my mom for being the greatest mother in the world. I truly don't know what I would ever do without her. She is such an amazing, strong, loving, hard-working woman! Thanks Mom for loving me and my family the way you do and just for being such a big part of our lives. You mean the world to me and are the greatest mom and best friend I could ever ask for. I love you so much and are honored to call you Mom.
My children are pretty fond of their GG too and love getting to spend time with her so much. We are so blessed to have both sets of Grandparents live within 15 minutes of us. Thanks GG for helping spoil our children...we love you!

I just have to brag on my sweet husband for a second since I know my kids are too little to be coming up with ideas for me on Mother's day. Dean always makes sure I feel so special and appreciated on this day which means so much to me. He and Jeff surprised Keri and I and booked us facials and massages at East meets West spa which was fabulous! I also got a new camera from the kids which I am so excited about and I got to enjoy a nice long bubble bath with a big Coke Zero and my new Us Weekly all alone with no children standing next to the tub begging to get in. I am so blessed for such a great man in my life and also for the two wonderful children God has blessed me with to even get to be able to enjoy this holiday. Thanks Dean, Parker, and Presley for loving me so much...you have no idea how much I love you.

Presley 13 Months

Presley is really to start to show her personality! She loves being the center of attention and knowing that everybody is looking at her. She is taking about 5-10 steps on her own and finally has a tooth! She loves reading books and playing peek-a-boo. She is the most lovey baby I have ever seen...she gives a mean bear hug! Her daddy is pretty sure she is saying I love you... which I have to say it does sound like she is! I love this little girl and I am so blessed she is my baby.

Parker 3 years & 8 months

Parker is such a hoot these days! I really enjoy hanging out with him all day and hearing everything he has to say. Right now my favorite things he says is he loves wearing shirts with "up-sleeves" aka short sleeves and and he hates his jeans to have "poke holes" in them. He is really into dressing up...football player, baseball player, a cowboy, Flash, Spiderman...you name it, he wants to be it! He has such a huge imagination. He also loves going to Branson to Silverdollar City and swimming in the indoor pool. He asks to go everyday. He has such a sweet little heart and I am so blessed to be his mommy.
