Laughing...

I know I say this about every stage, but this stage in the kids' life is my favorite. They are so funny! They are talking a lot more, Macy especially. I have a couple funny stories to share with you...

We were at a friends house the other day and as we walked outside to get into the car Connor thought it was time to play outside. My friends little one (the same age as the kids) escaped and he and Connor were running around like banshies together. Funny in its own right, but to add to that Macy walked over to Connor and said, "no, no" (with finger pointed of course)and tapped him on the bottom as if to spank him. We were rolling at this point! Connor of course had no idea she had even touched him but it was one of those moments I wish I had on video.

We were all sitting in the living room just playing. Macy was sitting next to me and I heard her toot. We laughed at it and then she decided to investigate it more. She stood up, leaned over so her hands were on the floor in front of her and inspected underneath her. She was looking for what came out! Cracked us up!

There are hundreds of these little stories. Spend a day with us, you'll have the best laugh you've had in years!

Mother's Day

Today is Mother's Day. We went to early church this morning and at breakfast afterward. The kids sat in a "real" chair today due to lack of highchairs. They did really well actually. They cracked us up all morning. Connor would yell out, "daddy" and Macy would shhh him. At one point yelling back to him, "No screaming, no screaming." So funny.

My Mother's Day present from Brian was him cleaning the house. He recruited the kids to help him. I have video of this and I'm trying to figure out how to get it on the computer. When I do I'll show you.

Mother's Day is and forever will be a day I cherish. It's one of my favorite days of the year.

March for Babies

I know it has taken me awhile. I told you I wasn't going to be able to do this everyday! Anyway, last Saturday we were supposed to walk in the March of Dimes "March for Babies" walk. AJ, Bob, Maddie, Will, Aubri, KK, and GG came to walk with us only to have it cancelled due to weather! It was such a bummer! But instead of sitting around doing nothing, we went to the science museum here in OKC. We had a great day. Afterward, we ate and then the babies napped, as well as most adults! We went and got free ice cream at Braum's before everyone headed home. It really turned out to be a great day!

This week was hectic. We left on Sunday afternoon to go to Pittsburg for a couple days for Papa's birthday. We left Tuesday evening and Connor had a 104 temp. After making sure it was going down, we rushed home only to have the next couple days be not so fun with fever. Macy is starting to have a running nose, but that could be from her teething. Those darn molars! We had our friend Logan over for a playdate all day Thursday and then he and his 2 brothers came over today while their parents went to see Star Trek. We had a great time!

This is Mother's Day weekend and I am sick. Augh. Bad cold and stuff. Brian took the kids on errands with him late this afternoon and brought home a pizza. That was nice. It was some good daddy time, but I was ready for them to home. We had a great pizza dinner, hardly any clean up, and then baths and bed. Nice day.

I tried to get pictures posted of the day, but I am unable to do it for some reason. I'll work on it.
