Father's Day!

We had a nice Father's Day yesterday. We went to church, came home, Trav got a nap, I layed down with Roman and then Trav's parents and DeArley came over for a BBQ in the back yard. The kids played and we sat and ate- perfect!

Naughty shirts...

I'm not sure what it means, but I keep finding naughty little shirts for Roman!!!

Andrea & Christy's birthday get together!

We got together for a BBQ on Sunday to celebrate the girl's b-days! It was great to hang out, let the kids play and eat food non stop! I love you ladies! And maybe next time I won't wear my PJ's and actually think about looking presentable!!! Happy birthday!!!

Fun at the parks.....

We've taken the kids to a lot of parks around town and they've been having a lot of fum being outside! I love to see them off the Tv and computer!!!

11 months old!

Mr. Roman is 11 months old today, which means, next month we will be celebrating his 1st birthday! I am in denial of course, but we are having a blast with him. He is walking around as long as he's holding onto something and he's learning to balance and stand on his own. He says "Uh oh" when he drops something. He waves goodbye when you say it, gives ginormous open mouth kisses when you ask for one and claps when you say "Yeahhhh" He is adorable and we love him!

Mr. Tristin

It's so hard to watch him grow up!!! He is such a good boy and a great help around the house as long as he earns more computer time!

Miss Grace...

I love the one of her swinging from the bars- she's always hanging, flying or jumping on something!

Miss Daisy

Daisy is enjoying her Summer so far although she does miss school, her friends and her teacher!

Miss Willow...

I love this little girl!

From the same mold...

Last night when I went in the bathroom, Daisy was in there and had been crying for a lengthly amount of time (due to her splotchy face). When I asked her what was wrong, she shook her head and tried to control her tears. "DAISY, what is wrong???" I asked again. This time she looked at me and said, " Mom, I just don't know if Angel likes me or not." I paused and did not handle it very well. "Oh my word Daisy, I thought you were hurt!" Grace stepped in seconds later and started lovingly talking to her. "Daisy, how does he treat you? If he's nice to you, it means he likes you...." I exited the bathroom and let Grace handle that one, but since then, it's been on my mind. I was in love 36 different times when I was her age. I got married several times on the playground and I still remember my Kindergarten crush- Evan Green. I still have the journals that confesses my love for all the boys in my life and I wrote poetry that makes my blush now. I used to be a romantic. Now I'm just a tired Mom who views it as a waste of money and another thing I HAVE to do. (I'm awful, I know and I'm honestly thinking about taking some love life classes to help me out!)Anyway, I realized that Miss Daisy and I are a lot alike. We both love people, we are fragile, we want to help, we want to make things better, we do everything we can to make others feel happy, we cry, we get our feelings hurt and we are sensitive. Today when I went to school, I asked her which one Angel was and she pointed him out to me. At least she has good taste! He was a cutie! We both smiled and she ran off to play with friends. I had to document the tears and later I will sit down and have the conversation with her that we should have had yesterday. I have to remember she is a little girl and whatever is going on in her life is the biggest deal to her. I need to stop and be sensetive. I need to remember that about 3 seconds ago it was me buying teddy bears and giving posters that said I love you on them to the boys in my life. I love you Daisy and I am very sorry.
