Happy Birthday to me!!!

I always think your birthday is just another day, but the people that love you sure make it a great one!!!

Yesterday I turned 29, scary I know!

I went to lunch at Fredricos with my mom and got to do a little shopping, while my dad babysat the kids. It was a good time. Thanks mom and dad.

Then for dinner Kirby and the boys took me to Olive Garden. My all time favorite place to eat! It was so fun. I was spoiled with gifts and extra special attention but the best gift is my little family. I am so grateful for that gift each and everyday. I Love you guys!

I am a lucky wife and mommy!

No Brakes!!!

Kirby giving every ones bike a tune up.

Ready to venture down the hill!!!

Sunday after church, we had planned a long awaited bike ride to grandma and papa's house. Kirby and I both have children seats attached to our bikes so of course Lacey would be in one and in my mind Rusty would ride in the other. Bryce has no choice but to be a big boy on his bike! (Which he was totally good with!) But, Rusty insisted on ridding to grandma's on his own bike with training wheels! So we started from our house. I know what were we thinking!?!

Bryce I guess, got in a panic and forgot to use his brakes! He peddled forward instead of back! Ahhhh, he came down the hill full speed out of control! At that moment I felt so helpless watching him but unable to jump off my bike because Lacey was behind me.. So what happened you ask???

Well, Daddy to the rescue!! Kirby grabbed Bryce's bike just in time and saved him!!! Amazingly enough it didn't slow him down he wiped the tears from his eyes and jumped on his bike without a minutes hesitation!

We did make it to grandma and papa's with only one crash from Bryce and Rust, and ditching Rusty's bike in Franklin! It was all in all very enjoyable! Next time we venture to grandma's we will be a little more prepared..

Papa ended up driving us home with our bikes in the back of the truck. Thank goodness!

What a great adventure!! We look forward to doing it many more times, so heads up grandma and papa!!!

That Time Again

Great fun, I'm not sure why Rusty's shirt was off. Silly boy!!!

Bryce and Rusty showing off their flashy eggs!!! Rusty showing his tonsils! Wish he would do that for the doctor!:)

I can't believe how fast the years go by. Easter is just 2 days away! For the last week the boys have been counting down and begging to color Easter eggs. So tonight I cleaned up dinner and we colored eggs. It was fun. I must still be a kid at heart because I had to color one of my own, the boys thought it looked like a speckled frog! It was green with red speckles. They have great imaginations! It was such a good time.

HAPPY EASTER!!!

To Smart!

This is one of Lacey's cute things. She's a little smarty! Moms can say that right?! If she hears someone say bye, whether it's on the phone or at the door she gets her little dainty wave going! She thinks she is so big!! Kirby captured this video the other night. She is definitely a girl, she is already multi-tasking. Climbing the stairs and waving!!!

Rub-A-Dub-Dub! (3 in the Tub!!!)

Bath time has been a little crazy. Since Lacey loves bathing and splashing she doesn't want to miss out on tubby time with her brothers! So with a wet mommy and 3 clean children later, everyone is happy!:) Bryce and Rusty are so good and patient with their little sis. Almost to good, she gets anything and everything she wants by a simple high pitched squeal!!! The doctor always says you can't spoil them the first year, so hopefully were safe for 1 more month. It's just a lot of LOVE!!!

One of my favorite things is to bath the kids, lotion them up, pull their jammies out of the warm dryer, dress them, wrap them in a cozy blanket, and give them some mommy attention one at a time in the rocking chair. They all love to be pampered and feel special to get mom all to themselves.. Nothing better.
