OUR BUNNY HOUSE!!

WHAT IN THE WORLD WAS I THINKING, NO NOT REALLY THEY DID HAVE FUN, IT WAS JUST A BIG MESS!!! THIS WAS OUR FIRST ATTEMPT TO DO A HOUSE AND AS YOU CAN SEE FROM OUR LAST PICTURE IT DID NOT TURN OUT SO PRETTY. THE BOYS WERE MORE INTERESTED IN EATING THE CANDY AND ICING, ESPECIALLY AUSTIN, SO THEY DID NOT DO TO MUCH DECORATING. OH WELL, IT IS THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS AND WE HAD FUN!

WORN OUT!!!

I KNOW YOU E.R. NURSES INCLUDING, MI MI ARE ABOUT TO DIE AND I WAS TOO WHEN I SAW HIM ON THE LAWN MOWER, BUT I COULD NOT RESIST THIS PICTURE. HE WAS HELPING DADDY WORK ALL DAY OUTSIDE AND I GUESS HE JUST HAD TO HELP WITH THE GRASS CUTTING TOO. RJ CALLED MY PHONE TO TELL ME TO COME AND LOOK AT HIM AND TO BRING MY CAMERA. HE IS DEFINITELY A DADDY'S BOY AND LOVES TO DO WHATEVER DADDY IS DOING. AIDEN HAD BEEN PLAYING HARD OUTSIDE ALL DAY AND WHEN HE FINALLY SLOWED DOWN AROUND 5:00 HE PASSED OUT!

7 WEEKS OLD!!

THIS WAS JAX ON FRIDAY WHEN HE TURNED 7 WEEKS OLD!! CHECK OUT THOSE CHUNKY LITTLE THIGHS, I JUST LOVE THOSE LITTLE ROLLS! HE IS HOLDING HIS HEAD UP A GOOD BIT THESE DAYS TOO AND LOVES TO LOOK AROUND AT EVERYTHING. LIKE I SAID BEFORE HE IS A LITTLE HAM FOR THE CAMERA. I JUST LOVE MY LITTLE MAN SO MUCH AND WISH I COULD STOP HIM FROM GROWING SO FAST!

AS YOU CAN TELL I AM BEHIND AGAIN WITH ALL MY POSTING. I STILL HAVE CATCHING UP TO DO, BUT IT IS LATE AND THE BOYS HAVE SCHOOL TOMMORROW. WE HAVE A BUSY WEEK WITH ALL THE EASTER FUN TOO AND I HAVE LOTS TO DO, SO I BETTER GET TO BED!!! HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

JUST DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!!

PLEASE EXCUSE THE PHOTOS OF ME,BUT I HAD TO SHARE THIS PRECIOUS MOMENT. THIS WAS LAST NIGHT AFTER OUR WAL-MART TRIP AND THE BOYS WERE GETTING READY FOR BED. JAX WAS SITTING IN MY LAP AT FIRST AND THEN AIDEN WALKED OVER AND I ASKED HIM TO SIT IN MY LAP, SO I COULD LOVE ON HIM BEFORE HE WENT TO BED. I SAT JAX BESIDE US AND THEN AUSTIN CAME OVER TOO. OF COURSE, HE JUST WANTED TO HOLD BABY BROTHER. SO WE WERE ALL SNUGGLED UP ON THE COUCH. I STARTED TO TEAR UP JUST THINKING ABOUT HOW MUCH I LOVE THESE BOYS AND HOW BLESSED I AM TO BE THIER MOMMY! IT IS MOMENTS LIKE THESE THAT MAKE MY CRAZY DAYS WORTH EVERY MINUTE OF IT!

WHERE ARE MY BABIES?

"SERIOUSLY MOMMY, WE ARE ALL GOING TO WAL-MART"

THAT IS WHAT JAX LOOKS LIKE HE IS THINKING IN THE TOP PICTURE!

OUR FIRST TRIP TO WAL-MART ALONE!

THIS WAS OUR FIRST"REAL" OUTING ALONE. I TAKE THEM ALL THREE TO THE YMCA, THAT IS ABOUT IT. WE HAVE BEEN TO WAL-MART ONCE ,BUT MI MI WAS WITH US. I STARTED BRIBING THE BOYS AS SOON AS WE GOT INTO THE CAR. IT WORKED AND THEY WERE GOOD BOYS FOR MOMMY WHILE SHE RAN THROUGH WAL-MART AS FAST AS SHE COULD. SERIOUSLY, I DON'T THINK I HAVE EVER SHOPPED THAT FAST. I ALSO FORGOT BY CARRIER FOR JAX AND AIDEN ABOUT HAD A COME APART WHEN HE SAW ME PUT JAX IN HIS BUGGY SEAT. HE ALWAYS SITS UP FRONT AND AUSTIN RIDES INSIDE THE BUGGY WHEN WE SHOP. I TALKED HIM INTO SITTING WITH AUSTIN , BUT HE GOT A MONSTER TRUCK OUT OF THE DEAL!

MY LITTLE HAM!!

JAX HAS LEARNED VERY EARLY ON THAT MOMMY TAKES LOTS OF PICTURES AND HE WILL JUST START SMILING AS SOON AS HE SEES THE LIGHT ON THE CAMERA COME ON. I LOVE TAKING PICTURES OF THOSE SWEET SMILES!

BIG BROTHERS!

I HAVE NOT HAD THE TIME TO POST ABOUT HOW WELL THE BOYS ARE DOING WITH JAX. THEY ARE THE BEST BIG BROTHERS THAT I COULD ASK FOR. THEY BOTH REALLY LOVE HIM IN THEIR OWN SPECIAL WAYS. AUSTIN IS STILL MY HELPER AND IS ALWAYS ASKING WHERE BABY BROTHER IS AND WANTS TO HOLD HIM. HE ALWAYS BRINGS JAX A TOY AND ALWAYS WANTS TO COVER HIM UP WITH HIS BLANKET. I WILL STAND BACK AND WATCH HIM WHEN HE THINKS I AM NOT LOOKING AND HE REALLY IS SO SWEET TO HIM. AIDEN LOVES HIM TOO,BUT HE DOES NOT LIKE TO HOLD HIM AND DOESN'T TRY TO TAKE CARE OF HIM LIKE AUSTIN DOES. I WILL CATCH HIM GIVING HIM TOYS AND ANYTIME JAX STARTS TO CRY AIDEN WILL WALK OVER AND JUST KISS HIS FOREHEAD. IF I ASK HIM IF HE WANTS TO HOLD JAX, HE USUALLY SAYS, "NO, I SCARED". HE DOES LIKE TO SING TO HIM AND TELL HIM STORIES. TODAY HE WAS TELLING JAX ABOUT EASTER AND IT WAS THE SWEETEST THING. WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ALOT ABOUT EASTER AND WHAT IT MEANS THIS WEEK AND IT JUST MELTS MY HEART TO HERE THEM TALK ABOUT IT. IF YOU ASK AIDEN WHAT EASTER IS ABOUT HE WILL SAY, "JESUS" AND THEN," JESUS IS ALIVE". IF YOU ASK AUSTIN HE SAYS, "JESUS CAME OUT OF HIS GRAVE". I HAVE SOME VIDEOS OF THEM,BUT OUR COMPUTER GOT STRUCK AWHILE BACK AND I CANNOT FIND THE HARDWARE FOR MY VIDEO CAMERA. HOPEFULLY IT WILL POP UP SOON AND I CAN SHARE SOME OF THEM. THEY ARE BOTH REALLY SMART BOYS AND I AM SHOCKED EVERYDAY AT THE STUFF THAT COMES OUT OF THEIR MOUTHS.

THEIR NEW THING IS MONSTER TRUCKS AND DINOSAUR'S! AIDEN LOVES THE MONSTER TRUCKS AND AUSTIN LOVES THE DINOSAUR'S. THEIR FAVORITE MOVIE IS HERBIE AND I THINK AIDEN COULD RECITE THE WHOLE THING. THEY ALSO LIKE TO WATCH MONSTER TRUCK SHOWS (THANKS TO DADDY FOR TAPING THEM), AND STILL LOVE BARNEY. I THINK IF THEY HAD A CHOICE TO DO ANYTHING IT WOULD BE RIDING THEIR RIDING TOYS OUTSIDE. THEY WILL STAY ON THOSE THINGS ALL DAY. IF ONE OF THEM GOES DEAD THEY GET OFF AND RUN TO THE NEXT ONE. THANKS TO MI MI, THEY HAVE PLENTY TO CHOOSE FROM.

THEY HAVE BOTH DEVELOPED NEW SLEEPING HABITS THE PAST FEW MONTHS. AUSTIN WAKES UP IN THE MIDDLE OF NIGHT AND COMES TO OUR BED. USUALLY IT IS AROUND 2:30 OR 4:00. HE JUST CLIMBS UP IN OUR BED AND GOES BACK TO SLEEP (RIGHT UP UNDER ME). HE LIKES TO SNUGGLE AND I HAVE TO ADMIT, I DONT MIND. AIDEN ON THE OTHER HAND, DOES NOT LIKE TO SLEEP IN HIS BED. FOR SOME REASON OUT OF THE BLUE HE DECIDED THAT HE WANTED TO SLEEP ON THE FLOOR. I SAID "WHATEVER, I DONT CARE WHERE YOU SLEEP AS LONG AS YOU SLEEP". SO HE HAS BEEN ON THE FLOOR FOR MONTHS NOW. HE ALWAYS HAS A PILE OF BLANKETS AND STUFFED ANIMALS ON THE FLOOR WITH HIM. WE ARE FIXING TO RE-DO THEIR ROOM AND GET THEM A SET OF BUNK BEDS, SO I AM ANXIOUS TO SEE IF HE WILL SLEEP IN THOSE.

I COULD GO ON ALL NIGHT ABOUT THESE TWO, BUT I WILL STOP FOR NOW. I JUST FELT BAD THAT I HAVE NOT UPDATED ABOUT THEM LATELY. I USUALLY ONLY HAVE TIME TO POST PICTURES AND I AM USUALLY FEEDING JAX WHEN I'M UPDATING.

SPEAKING OF JAX HIS FACE IS LOOKING BETTER ALREADY. IT IS STILL PRETTY BAD ON HIS CHEEKS, AND SHOULDERS,BUT I THINK THE DOVE SOAP IS DRYING IT OUT. THANK YOU ALL FOR THE TIPS AND I AM GLAD TO HEAR I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS DEALT WITH THIS. YOU ALL KNOW HOW MUCH IT STINKS TO SEE YOUR BABIES FACE ALL BROKEN OUT!! I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND AND I HAVE NEW PICS OF JAX TO POST TOO. I JUST CANT BELIEVE HE IS 7 WEEKS OLD TODAY!!

MY POOR BABY!

YOU CAN SEE HIS LITTLE BABY ACNE IN THESE PICTURES,BUT IT IS 10 TIMES WORSE NOW. THESE WERE TAKEN ON TUESDAY. IT HAS MOVED DOWN TO HIS SHOULDERS AND CHEST TOO. IT IS BREAKING MY HEART AND THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO. I CALLED THE DOCTOR BACK TODAY AND THEY SAID TO USE DOVE SOAP ON HIM, SO I AM DOING THAT AND PUTTING CETAPHIL LOTION ON HIS FACE. PLEASE PRAY IT GETS BETTER SOON! I DONT THINK IT IS BOTHERING HIM, BUT I JUST CANT STAND TO SEE HIS LITTLE FACE LIKE THIS! I DO NOT EVEN WANT TO PUT A PICTURE UP OF IT BECAUSE IT LOOKS SO BAD!

OUR FIRST ZOO TRIP WITH ALL 5 BOYS!!!

MI MI AND I MET AUNT ASHLEY, WESTON, AND BROOKS AT THE ZOO TODAY. THE BOYS HAD SO MUCH FUN LOOKING AT ALL THE ANIMALS AND RIDING THE CAMEL AND CHOO CHOO TRAIN. THE BABIES WERE VERY GOOD AND SLEPT PRETTY MUCH THE WHOLE DAY. I HAVE TO SAY IT WENT MUCH BETTER THAN I EXPECTED WITH FIVE BOYS ALL UNDER THE AGE OF FIVE!!!

THEY WERE ALL SO GOOD WITH THE EXCEPTION OF AUSTIN PUSHING THIS POOR LITTLE GIRL BECAUSE HE THOUGHT SHE WAS MESSING WITH HIS BROTHER. THE LITTLE GIRL WALKED UP WHERE THEY WERE ALL STANDING AND AIDEN STARTED TELLING HER "NO NO"" FOR SOME REASON AND BEFORE THE LITTLE GIRL COULD DO ANYTHING AUSTIN WAS PUSHING HER. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME AUSTIN HAS TAKEN UP FOR HIS BROTHER AND AIDEN DOES THE SAME THING IF SOMEONE IS MESSING WITH AUSTIN. I WAS SO EMBARRASSED AND SPANKED HIS LITTLE BOOTY RIGHT THERE AND THEN TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO HIM THAT HE DOES NOT PUSH ANYBODY,BUT I HAVE A FEELING THIS WHOLE "TAKEN UP FOR BROTHER THING" WILL LAST FOREVER! I TOLD RJ ABOUT IT AND HE JUST THOUGHT THAT WAS THE GREATEST THING. HE LOVES THE FACT THAT THEY TAKE UP FOR EACH OTHER ALREADY.

THE BABIES HANGING OUT!!

BROOKS AND JAX WERE SO GOOD AND JUST SLEPT AND ATE THE WHOLE TIME. POOR JAX HAS BROKEN OUT WITH BABY ACNE AND TODAY IT WAS REALLY BAD. THE HEAT SEEMED TO HAVE MADE IT WORSE. I CALLED THE DOCTOR,BUT THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN REALLY DO FOR IT EXCEPT LET IT RUN ITS COURSE. IT DOES LOOK ALOT BETTER SINCE WE HAVE BEEN HOME AND OUT OF THE HEAT. I KNOW IT DOES NOT BOTHER HIM,BUT IT JUST BREAKS MY HEART TO SEE HIS FACE LIKE THAT. I PRAY THAT IT GETS BETTER SOON, BUT I KNOW THAT I COULD BE PRAYING FOR SOMETHING MORE SERIOUS THAN BABY ACNE SO I THANK GOD FOR THAT! HE IS STILL A CUTIE TO ME !!

THEY LOVE WESTON!!

RIDING THE CAMEL AND CHECKING OUT ALL THE ANIMALS!

ALL OF THE BOYS WANTED TO RIDE THE CAMEL WHEN WE FIRST WALKED UP TO THEM, BUT WHEN IT CAME TIME TO RIDE AUSTIN WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT WOULD GET ON. HE COULD NOT RIDE BY HIMSELF SO I HAD TO RIDE WITH HIM. AFTER WE RODE, WESTON AND AIDEN DECIDED THAT THEY WANTED TO RIDE, SO MI MI RODE WITH THEM.
