Luke's first haircut, Mother's Day and just a day in the life...

Busy, Busy. The past couple weeks have been filled with excitement, exhaustion and a lot of the norm. Luke and Raygan are growing so fast I find myself looking around wondering where on earth the time is going. My babies are becoming bigger babies and gosh, they change so much each day.
Luke got his first haircut today and was a champ. Raygan on the other hand was her 2 yr old self and didn't enjoy the experience so much.
For Mother's day I got what Raygan calls our 'fast stroller'; now the kids can join Mommy when I go running!

Luke on the move....

After a lot of trial and error, and rocking on all four's, Luke finally did it!!!
Our little Bubba is crawling and boy is he getting fast.
We now have our very own little Curious George. No longer a little baby that just sits, Luke is now trying to open cabinets, play with door stoppers and vents. So, Luke's exploration of his house finally begins, and well, Mommy and Daddy have their hands full!

Derby Festival Fun.....

Lots of fun, great company and good food! We are livin' it up; Derby Ball,the balloon glimmer, Thunder, the mini-marathan, Wine Fest... you name it.

One more check off the 'bucket list'....

Saturday was a big day for me. I finished the mini-marathon; a goal of mine I have always had. All the training and time committed finally paid off. When I crossed the finish line to see my husband and two beautiful children, I have to say that was one of the most rewarding 30 seconds of my life.

Thanks to Josh for supporting me, and allowing me the time to train. His pride in me on Saturday made my accomplishment all the more special.

Woo Hoo! I DID IT. Oh, and I finished in under 2 hours! 1:59:06 to be exact. Its amazing the things you can do when you put your mind to it....

A little bit of sand, a little bit of Uno

Destin was awesome. Perfect weather, perfect company and perfect memories. I am just excited to share some of the many awesome pictures.

Raygan and Luke are already taking after their Papa and cousin Hayden- learning the rules of the game Uno. Luke was up and ready to rock and roll past his bed time just to show off his card skills at 9 months of age!

Luke's first Easter; Raygan's 3rd

A little Easter egg hunting, candy eating and first's for both babies. Luke's first Easter; first visit from the Easter bunny, first Easter Mass and first Easter egg hunt!
Raygan's first, well, Barbie. She loved her Barbie so much that she felt it necessary to talk about her 'boobies' out loud during mass. Nice....

I am not sure who was cuter- Luke in his little suit or Raygan in her gorgeous dress.

My new digs...

With a little sweet talking I was able to get the camera I wanted...
It is big, bad and well I have not a clue how to use it and what it's capacity is at this point. But, I do know I will get some good family photos and continue all of the special memories we are making.

I was able to at least figure out how to snap a couple shots to share. Now I just need to find some time to read the instruction manual.

Honey, I promise I will figure this thing out an use every penny worth that was spent:)
