Daddy's Post

Craig decided to do the post today (gotta love his captions.) Enjoy the rest of the week!
I'm ready for the weekend!!!

This is how I roll!



Bubble gun and a bucket hat... what could be more fun?

She must see her daddy coming to change her out of these stupid pants.

This is my game face. I get whatever I want when I look at you like this.

Reese's Christening

I am doing things a little backwards but wanted to post pictures of our little Girl's very special day! We Baptized Reese at the end of March 2011. It was a beautiful day with family and friends with us to celebrate. She was baptized at St. Peter's which is a very special church in our family. We were all baptized here and Craig and I married here (as well as most of our family including my parents.)
We asked Aunt Molly, my sister, and Uncle Tommy, Craig's step brother, to be Reese's Godparents, this little angel is so blessed! Reese wore our family Christening gown of 70 years! This was my uncle's and was passed down to my mom and her siblings, all of my cousin's, me and my sister's, and now our baby's! Aunt Molly gave Reese a very beautiful antique bonnet that I hope her little girl will wear one day.
We celebrated after with a reception at our house.
God Bless you baby girl!

Crawfish Boil, Easter, Trip to Grandaddy's

 I am way behind on some fun times so we wanted to post a few pictures from April! We had our 4th annual crawfish boil on Saturday before Easter with our first Easter Egg hunt. Crawfish were awesome and its always a wonderful time to visit with friends and family! Easter Sunday was great. We spent it at a sweet church service at the Carmelite Nuns. Charlie broke his shoe and was saying "AMEN" all throughout church and Reese started crying so it was a lot different then years past =) We had lunch at Mame and Pops- I forgot my camera so Mame' took pics of our babies in their Easter best (which I don't have yet to share). The next weekend we went to Alexandria to celebrate Grandaddy's 60th! We played croquet, visited, ate lots and relaxed-it was wonderful. Our first road trips with both kids and they did great(thanks to built in DVD to play Elmo!) More to come...Cheers!

Busy May!

I haven't posted in a while..we have been a very busy little family adjusting to mama going back to work! I will post more soon but thought I'd share a few pics and a few funnies for now.

Funny Charlie Boy:
We were looking for Charlie only to find him in his bathroom, completely in the sink with the water running (thank GOD it was the cold water). We asked him why he did that and he said "I had to mommy!" Really charlie?? You had to?? So funny! I mean isn't that something you would say when getting in trouble in highschool, not at 21 months.
Also, Charlie is finding interest in the toilet. He came out the kitchen bathroom the other day with his whole head wet saying "Hair wet mommy!" Yes, I see that Charlie let's not do that again ok? "Ok mamma, yuck!" At least he gets it right!
He has been going into the bathroom wanting to potty, so Craig bought an Elmo potty (Elmo is his fav). This morning he brought his potty to us and wanted to potty so we sat him down and he went! Yay...So proud of him! However, hopefully will NOT start potty training anytime soon. I need a breather first..haha.
He is counting to 11 (we finally got past the 1-2-8), repeating everything, sharing great -we'll see how that changes once Reese starts taking his toys =), naming our family members and saying AMEN at prayer time, and constantly has us laughing and thanking God.

Precious Reese:
Lily Reese has been smiling up a storm, laughing out loud, rolling over (as of Mother's Day), sucking her thumb and adjusting to mommy going back to work (which was an easy adjustment for her, she just loooove's Mrs. Patti!!)
Being at work is good! I just miss my babies so much during the day but I know they are in great hands which makes us happy! Our life is busy, busy right now and sometimes feels like o-n-e  l-o-n-g continuous day where we feel like we can never get enough done and always have plans, but we wouldn't change it for the world! We are so blessed!!

Life is Rough!

Turn your head for 5 seconds and this!!

"I had to mommy"

Sweetness

such a Big boy

So proud of himself (and so is talking Elmo potty).
