MOPS

Moms of Preschoolers- our group started back at FBC today! woohoo! It's just so nice to talk to other moms, hear a great lesson on being a mom-wife and enjoy some time without the kids for a few hours a week! This week's lesson reminded me of how THESE are the moments in life that are precious. The time I have NOW with my husband, my children is so very precious. It's good to be reminded!

Audrey in a swing!

Just wanted to share the newest layout I made today!

Not so perfect day

Ya. Today was one of those days! Audrey's teething and just not herself. Even so, she managed to give me a few smiles while playing in the swing at a friend's house. Alexander seems to be testing the boundaries these days and it's definately work to maintain discipline sometimes! He and his new buddy, Erin had a good time on the swing today, though! Thank goodness Brian comes home and helps me! Our day wasn't perfect, but we are still so blessed. Lord, help me as I try to be the best mom I can to these little ones!

Girl's bathing suit!

So, I love this picture of Audrey in her little swim suit! She just looks so precious and had to share! Pardon while I have a sappy mommy moment!

Alexander's 3rd birthday!

Alexander turned three!!!! What a big boy! We had a little party for him with a few family and friends! He received way too many toys! ha!

Alexander picked out his own birthday cake- we called it a dinosoar, though others at the party thought it looked more like a dragon!


Our big boy got a little shy when it was time to be sung to and blow out the candles. Daddy had to hold him and reassure him a bit!

No, it wasn't her birthday, but had to get a pic of little Audrey getting fed some cake by Meme!

A little about us!
Brian and I celebrated our five year anniversary a few months ago. We met at church and were married within a year! He is a wonderful husband and a fabulous father! Our children are so blessed to have a man who loves them as much as he does. Brian is my honey and my classic movie buff!
My little boy, Alexander, turns three in a few days! Wow! It's amazing how quickly the time goes by. I am so thankful I have been able to stay home and care for him these years. He is such a blessing! He cracks me up with his little-boy silliness. He melts my heart with his sweetness! Alexander has already asked me to marry him, lol!
Then there's my sweet sugar pie, Audrey. She is now nine months. She's a little of a late bloomer when it comes to crawling and getting her teeth in. She makes up for it by being way too cute and chatty!
We are sure not a perfect bunch but we love each other intensely and strive to make our house a place of safety, a sanctuary. If our home isn't safe from the craziness of this world, what IS safe. God, help us to make our home a place of joy, peace, growth and fun!

A dt toot!

I just got the email this am that I am on the design team for a new manufacturer that just debuted at CHA this summer. Two Daisies Designs! Their paper is very funky-fun. They also make wordblooms! Here's an album I made using their "father" wordbloom!

So, I've always been a little slow to get on the bandwagon with new technology, but here I am. I now have a blog that hopefully some will read and enjoy!
