Happy Birthday Babe!!!!
Happy Birthday to the love of my life...

To the man I adore and am so thankful to be sharing my life with. God truly knew what he was doing when he brought you into my life. He knew I needed your patience (for I am not always very easy to put up with), I needed your strength (there have been many times I have needed you to hold me up), I needed your quiet calm (for all those times when I've just about lost it), I needed your gentleness (for taking care of me when I was sick or in labor or experiencing a loss), I needed your touch (for those times when I just needed to know you were there) and I needed your undying love (for those speed bumps in our road of life). He also knew that our children needed a man that gives all of himself to being the best father. You are a wonderful man and I am so proud to call you my husband.
I pray that God will allow me to live out the rest of my days with you, for you are the half that makes me whole and without you, I would be lost. Thank you for loving me enough to celebrate the victories and joys and to work through the lows.
I love you so much...forever and a day...
Happy Birthday Babe!!! xoxoxo

The summer "Do" and the Sixth Too..
...ok, that should say "the Sixth Tooth" but I couldn't resist the rhyme!! LOL!!!
So we've been trying to talk Mason into getting haircut for the summer (scroll down a couple posts and see his hair) - not because we don't like it longer (well Rex didn't), but we both love him with short hair and thought it would be so much cooler for him during the summer.
Well it took Saturday afternoon to hit 100 degrees and he said "Mom, can you please cut my hair?" So of course, I got out the clippers and obliged!! :) I think he looks adorable!
(This picture was taken this morning - moments before I pulled tooth number 6 - keep reading!! Don't mind the cut over his lip. He and his sister collided on Saturday and his face hit the big whisky barrel flower pot outside!! Ouch!)


Too bad this picture came out so blurry but it was taken quickly before I left for work! That tooth has been so loose and he was so nervous to take it out. He's at a sports camp (day camp) this week and I told him I was worried about it getting knocked out and him losing it. So he finally agreed and asked me to pull it. Well, I barely had to touch it and it popped out. I'm so glad we got it out!! And now - another hole!!! :) But his bottom teeth were getting SO crowded - I'm thankful for that spot! (Although where will the new one fit in????)

Blurry or not, I still love to see that cute face!!! :) Love ya buddy!!!

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!
My baby brother and my sister (in-law) are having a GIRL!!!!!!!! I'm gonna have a NIECE!!!!! My first!!! I am SO excited!!!!!
It's an amazing feeling to know your baby brother is going to have a baby of his own!! He has waited so many years for happiness. God sent along the most perfect girl for him and he had his soul mate (and an added bonus - I got a sister that I adore!) And now he will have his own baby girl!! I absolutely can't wait to see him with her. He's wanted kids forever and I know he will be a great Daddy!!
My heart swells with happiness for them!! What a joy - a little girl!!! It's a true gift from God and I am so thankful!!! Sydney will be SO excited!! She was hoping it would be a girl! Mason frowned when I told him because he wanted it to be a boy. But then he started smiling and saying "as long as it's healthy!!"
I can't wait - she's due 5 months from tomorrow!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

And so ends 2nd grade...
Today was Mason's last day of school! He is now officially a THIRD GRADER!!! Wow!!! It's so hard to believe. I still remember putting him on the bus for Kindergarten!!! He's grown into such a big boy and we are so proud of him!!
I had to snap a couple pics of the big boy before I left this morning!!! He only had a half day of school and then he got to go out to lunch with Daddy, Rah Rah and Pop Pop!!! I think he had a good day! :)
(Look at the muscles he's developing in his arms! Ay yi yi!!!!)

(The caption on his shirt is so appropriate - it's like it's his response to my sadness about him growing up!!! )

My sweet, precious boy!! I love you so much and am so proud of you!!! I'm excited for you to start third grade. I'm so excited you got the teacher you wanted and I look forward to sharing all your third grade adventures with you!!!!! xoxoxo

We came home from the baseball game on Sunday afternoon and it was H.O.T!!!! So Rex turned on the sprinkler and the kids had a ball!!!
(Sydney and Nanny went shopping last week and this is the bathing suit Nanny got her. Rex said "TOO MUCH SKIN!!" LOL!! But I think she looks absolutely adorable!!! :) )
(And I absolutely LOVE this one!!! She's so beautiful!!!)

(I love how you can see all the water drops in this picture. Click on the picture to make it bigger!)
(I have been having some fun with my new camera and trying to get some real close ups of the kids!!)
(Rex calls Mason beaver tooth - lol!! I know it's terrible but Mason thinks it's funny! You know how their front permanent teeth come in and they are SO big!! Well with the ones around it gone, it really sticks out!)
(Little Miss Blue Eyes - ok so this picture looks a little evil!! LOL!! But I still love it!! You can see deep into her eyes in this picture!!!!)


(And I absolutely LOVE this one!!! She's so beautiful!!!)
I'm looking forward to all the fun pictures I'll get this summer!!! :)
