Boys pool fun

 Michael & the boys had fun in the sun and pool yesterday.  Noah is about 85 pounds; launching this kid is not easy! Daddy was a good sport!

Bumping brothers

I'm determined to not let my kids grow up being constantly entertained with technology. So for their outside sensory fun today, the boys bumped & crashed into each other. It was more fun for Noah, because Jackson fell down faster because of his smaller size. After they were done, I put it on & sat Annemarie on the tube (holding her, of course). The boys took turns bumping it & Annemarie giggled & giggled. She thought they was pretty cool. Bonus---they also worked as a pool float!
Summer is here!

My Boys Halloween Pic

This as good as I got to getting "Halloween" pictures this year. Not very Halloween, I know! We took a couple snapshots of the boys with these pumpkins during our maternity session before Annemarie was born (which was only a few days before she was born!) So, this will have to do for this year! They still are cute! Love my boys!

Boys hold Annemarie for 1st time

The boys were beyond excited to hold their new baby sister today! These are just iPhone pictures, but it us clear that they love her already!

Last outing with the boys before baby girl arrives

Today the boys & I went on our last outing before their baby sister arrives.  We went to the Tyler zoo and had a great time.  The boys had a lot of fun feeding the birds and petting the goats.  I just enjoyed soaking them in...the last outing before they have a sister, before we are a family of five! I don't know all the crazy ways that our schedules, sleep, and lives will change...but I DO KNOW one thing that WON'T change---my love for these precious boys.  Mommy loves you Noah & Jackson! 

Noah & Jackson: Mommy loves and adores YOU BOTH! That will NEVER change!

Mommy's final picture before Annemarie is born---9 full months pregnant! 

Look at this smile! :)

My Valentines 2014

 Valentine's Day 2014~
Mommy & her sweet boys. Noah (6) & Jax (3).  We had lots of balloons, Valentine sweets, and special treats for our Valentines Day.  Noah also got a new Lego & Jax got a new big truck.  They were happy. Noah was so sweet. He came up to me as I was sitting on the couch and said, "Mommy, I have something for you that you'll really love," and he reached his arms out to me and gave me the sweetest, biggest hug. He was right. I loved it!

Precious boys

The sweetest Valentine!

Be still my heart! I am absolutely in LOVE with the Valentine card made by CandC Paperie! She actually loved it so much, she asked if she could use it for advertising. Of course I agreed! Here's our Valentine card 2014. What darlings!

Noah & Jax Valentine 2014

Priceless

Here they are...Noah and Jackson's Valentine pictures 2014. At the time the pictures were taken, Noah was 5 (almost 6) and Jax was 3.  They are my heart. LOVE these boys!

Beautiful afternoon with my boys

72 degrees in January= perfect outdoor day for my boys! We went to Sonic, the park, a nature walk, & ended at the candy store. Jax LOVES "red Coke."
Bliss!

Mommy & Daddy with their boys

My world summed up in these 3 men.

I love the black & white look of beach pictures. Priceless.

Look at the joy on these boys' faces! They love their Daddy!

How fun is this one? Jumping for joy!

Noah, Mommy, & Jackson walking on the beach

So easy to have fun with this big kid!

Here are some fun pictures of Michael & I with the boys on our beach vacation.  Despite best intentions to "plan" a photo shoot with kids...you just never know what will happen.  I was shocked that we got any pictures at all with a 7 am photo shoot! But, my boys are adorable. They look amazing doing just about anything anywhere. Not that I'm biased;)
