Fishing



Here are the Olivia, Jack, and their cousin Mackenzie getting ready to ride the ponies. Well Jack didn't ride but the girls did.








These are cute shots taken outside of the pink palace museum...or as Olivia likes to call it the hands off museum.




















Jack trying out his new potty. No we are not trying to potty train him yet. He really likes to watch people go potty. As you can tell he has been watching his sister a lot. I don't even know how to begin to teach him how to go potty.











Jackson showing off his new big boy bed. I just can't believe that he is already sleeping in a toddler bed and that he is out of his crib. sad He kinda looks like a little old man sitting on his stool next to his bed.

Raising my two babies

I have been really touched by my babies lately. Sometimes they just argue over everything and can't seem to get along. Olivia is alway bothered because Jack is messing with her stuff or wants to play with her and Jack gets frustrated because he wants to play with his sissy. But every so often you get to see siblings at their best. During my long car ride home from West Memphis I glanced back in the rear view mirror to see my babies, my angels holding hands. It was absolutely adorable. The next moment happened yesterday when I was getting Jackson ready for bed and Olivia decided to sing him a nighttime song. She sang..."I love you forever, I like you for always, as long as I'm living my brother you'll be." I know so cute and sweet. This is pure love. One last moment I want to share happened tonight. I was calming Jackson down and his sissy started to rub his back and give him kisses that is when he looked right at her and said, "sissy...luvs you" my heart melted right there. I am so blessed to have such wonderfully sensitive children. I have to think that we are doing something right when they have these moments. I LOVE MY KIDS!!!
