First Haircut for Alex

Our baby is no longer a baby...now that he has a new big boy haircut. Today we took all the kids to get cuts and today was Alex's first haircut. The curly mullet was just not kickin' it anymore. Yesterday he turned 18months old and at his well check-up discovered he had an ear infection in his right ear. Poor fella. There is a lot going on in this little boy's life. We have enjoyed watching him grow and change. We love you BIG BOY!

Happy Spring!

It's spring time! The flowers are blooming and the weather is beautiful. Today was a busy yet productive day for us. Here is a recap in pictures...Enjoy!

Planting Flowers

Today was a beautiful day to plant some flowers. We bought some marigolds to plant in our backyard. Not only will we enjoy looking at them but they will also serve as protection for our vegetable garden that we will be starting soon. While Alex was taking his nap the rest of us headed out back and planted some flowers.
The kids really enjoyed digging and planting. We discovered several centipedes and worms. They each got to choose a flower and plant it in our flower garden. It was such sweet time together and now we have some of God's beautiful flowers to look at and enjoy.
::a great day to dig in the dirt::
