Big Buck?

Evan loved riding the "Big Buck" ...but I think he was twice as big as the deer! So funny!

Spring is in the Air!

What a Sweet Little Girl!

He looks so handsome!

He was trying to give his Sis a hug...So Sweet!

It is hard to get a picture of them together...Good Job Eric!

Run Eric Run

This past weekend Eric and I participated in the Susan G. Komen Rock and Roll Half Marathon in Dallas. I ran the relay marathon with a friend and Eric ran his first ever half marathon.

I started the race with Eric and passed off to my running partner at mile 7.1 but Eric kept going for another 6 miles. After I finished my part of the relay, I got on the Dart Train and was able to make it back to the finish line to see Eric when he crossed. My parents had brought Evan and Eden to the finish line to meet me so we were all there to cheer him on.

I have to say that when I could see him coming near the finish line I got a little emotional. I was very proud of him and all of his hard work. The kids faces just lite up when they saw him coming and Evan was waving and yelling, "Daddy!" I was very glad that we were there.

Here is a video that my dad took as Eric was coming close to the finish line.

Way to Go Eric! We are proud of you!

Look Who is Turning ONE!

Our Sweet Little Girl will celebrate her 1st Birthday tomorrow.


We love her spunky personality,



her sweet voice as she begins to talk,



and her beautiful face that looks just like her daddy's!



Eric and I fall more in love with this little girl everyday!

Happy Birthday to our Sweet Princess!

We Love You Sissy,
Mommy, Daddy and Bubba

More Tubes Are Coming Soon....Very Soon!

Eden received her first set of ear tubes in November and tomorrow she will be getting her second set. Since her tubes she has still be having ear infections and for the past couple of months both of her tubes have been stopped up. About three weeks ago her ENT cleaned out her ears and unstopped the tubes but by the next week they were stopped up again. Tomorrow her Doc will go in and put bigger tubes in and hope that with the bigger tubes the fluid behind her ears will be able to drain out properly.

We are praying that her procedure goes well and her new tubes will help her ears to stay ear infection free!

We are also so thankful that she has such a wonderful doctor who is absolutely in love with our sweet little girl! She has captured the hearts of all the office staff.

Give me THAT!

What the pictures do not show is that Eden had just taken Evan's cookies away from him and NOW...he wants them back!








Poor Baby! Don't worry he got his cookies back!

Let It Snow...Again!

On Thursday evening the weatherman was predicting a light dusting of snow for the next morning but when we woke up there was already seven inches of snow on the ground and it was still snowing! School was canceled so I got to spend a GREAT day at home with my babies.

Then this morning Eric went out and built them a super snowman. The snowman even had antlers on its head so.....we are calling it our Snowbuck.

The weatherman is predicting more snow for Wednesday so we will see what happens. Maybe we will get to build another snowman very soon.

Evan was trying to measure the snow and the final measurement was 8 1/2 inches. I think the weatherman was a little off.

Eden is getting to be a big girl. This has been a big week for her. She has learned to wave, clap and even walk. Who knows what next week will hold?

Evan loves a hat. He calls anything that he puts on his head a hat.

Eden thinks her mommy is her Best Friend and I would not have it any other way.

Nana taught Evan how to sign "more" and he loves it. He yells "more more" while he signs...so smart!

Those are two very cute kids!

Our Little Red Riding Hood!
