Dads are Rad!

Happy Fathers Day!!!
Sawyer and Daddy had a blast on their first Fathers Day together!

Bug loves spending time with Papa!

Had to include a photo of Nana too!

Here is the man playing in his new whale pool!

Wishing all dads a very Happy Day!
I don't have any photos of Grandpa S or Papa S to share. Reminder to self...when taking your camera over to Grandpa's house, make sure the memory card is in the camera.
Stay tuned for pictures from Sawyer's First Birthday!

11 Months


I crack myself up!

The remote is mine!

Happy Mother's Day!

Bug is strolling with Grandma

Getting in snuggle time with Bushia
Gotta get in some daddy time too!
Best buds!
The trouble maker!
The following are some of my favorite pictures of Sawyer from the last month. A majority are of him doing things he should not be...but is so cute doing it, I almost can't get mad.

I included the above picture of bug watching his favorite cartoon, Sid the Science Kid. He absolutely LOVES it. Investigate, Explore, Discover!

In this picture, he is giving me the"What did I do" face after being told not to play with the vacuum cord below.

He loves to turn on and off the lamp

I found him twice dumping out my flour canister in the kitchen. I am not sure how he managed to twist off the metal lid...but he did and it cracks me up!






We had a LOT of birthday fun. This is a photo from Kendall's first birthday party.

Lola's first birthday party..before

And after...with her mommy Rita.
Kendall nicely pulled Sawyer around during Lola's party.


Her is daddy helping bug through the parachute.

Slam dunk!

A very Belated Royal Birthday


I could not pass up the opportunity to celebrate both the Royal Wedding and my sister Meredith's birthday. I hopped a plane to Dallas and celebrated in style. We weren't too gaga about the Royals...but because the wedding fell on Mer's b-day, we got into the spirit. We woke up at 5 am, drank mimosas and watched the nuptials. Next, we picked up the food and cake, took a wonderful nap, and then had our nails done. Mer and Kevin decked out the house, beginning with the flag above. Happy Day to you Mer. Love you!

Mer wore her wedding dress and encouraged guest to wear wedding attire of their choice. I am wearing a bridesmaid dress from a friend's wedding.


Kevin opted to keep things literal, and wore his Royals baseball shirt....ha ha! What an adorable couple. =)

Mom bough Mer this "wedding" birthday cake. The photo does not do it justice.

Kevin's mother Lois made this amazing hat out a paper plate and some ribbon and feathers. I think it was my favorite hat of the night!
Mer and her good friend Carrie.

Another great hat!



Three brides full!

Brady wanted to dress up because everyone else was!

The Yummy Spread



Beers from England


Brady had his last soccer game of the season, so I finally got to see him play. We had a very nice lunch and trophy banquet at Chili's after. Patrick was warming up with the team before the game.

This is Brady going for a GOAL!

You can get more power if you stick out your tongue..ha ha!

10 Months Old!

Let the crawling begin!
So, Big Kid is on the move.....and so begins the constant dashes across the room to stop him from playing in the dog dish or crawling under the desk to get the power strip. So happy it has finally happened, but phew! it can make you tired! He loves pulling himself up on everything. Thankfully there does not seem to be a shortage of toys to do this on. He has taken many falls, but is quite used to it and doesn't cry any more unless it is a complete face plant.
He has added a few more teeth, and likes to babble and sing.



I included this photo because the weather (at this time) was starting to get warm, so this photo is the dinosaur outfit's last stand. Sawyer is so excited...ha ha.

This month we had the SJJ Titan Hockey end of the season banquet. Here is Sawyer, Kendall and some of our favorite Titans!
Sawyer is geared up for Easter...and Hockey. A match made in heaven.

One of our surprisingly few family pictures.

Awww, Mom...can we stay longer?

Silly boy, playing with his shoes!

Trying on Papa's hat
Planning his escape!

The Month of May holds many, many, many fun events for the family. Stay tuned!
