Retirement Party
We loaded up the car again, this time headed to Brenham for Uncle Jimmie's retirement party. Kennedy and Austin were at each other's hip the entire night. It is fun to watch the kids play together.

I'm a Big Kid Now
We went to get family haircuts today and Jaxon got his first official "big boy" haircut. He did well and munched on a cracker as he took in all the new sights and sounds. He sat in Jeremy's lap and I believe he was quite frightful of me with my hair all done up in foil and color!

On the Move
Jaxon is on the move....he is taking up to 10 steps and is so proud exploring new things in a standing position. I have also grown fond of taking photos of him asleep and could look at them all day long. He has taken the role of the second child in stride...easy going and he likes to be the "baby". Thank you Daddy for those lashes
He likes to tote things in his mouth...the easiest way when your hands are busy

and did I mention a climber....you walk out of the room and he is here or standing on his block table

There Were 3 in the Bed
I think of the book that Kennedy got from Doug and Dorothy when I think of the new sleeping arrangements lately. Kennedy has been making her way to our room about 5 or so and comes to Daddy's side saying, "I want to lay in bed with you and mommy!" I admit I do like to snuggle up to this little sweetheart but after about day four I have been laying awake waiting for the alarm to sound. And here is what comes to mind..."There were 3 in the bed and the little one said roll over, roll over"

Happy Birthday Hudson
It is so hard to imagine that little Hudson turned one!!!!!! We packed up the car and headed to Dallas this weekend to celebrate with our best little friend. He had a great 1st birthday and was a champ at eating his cake. Look at that adorable face!!!
Now these girls are too sweet!!!! They have become great friends. You always pray that your kids will be good friends with your best of friends and get along etc. There are no problems here!!! They simply pick up where they left off...
It will fun to watch them this summer at the beach in Florida.

A Week of Firsts
This past week was a proud one for us! Jaxon took his first steps. We were in the bathroom and he made a dash for the tub...step 1..step 2...and took hold of the tub's edge. Kennedy has moved up into the older three's class this week. She learned to spell her name! She loves to read the letters of her name above her bed and we asked her if she could spell her name. She spelled it numerous times on her own and likes to "sign" the letters "E, D, Y" when she spells it:) We have a little teacher of some kind on our hands. So....we are proud.....amazing little people!

Random Photos
Totally boy! Jaxon keeps himself content playing with balls and digging in the remote basket in the living room. We normally leave the TV off while the kids are up and let them just play around the house. However, even with little exposure Jaxon will pick up the remote push a button and look to the TV. Is it just engrained????

A Get Away
This game went on for a couple of days
Last week Jeremy and I enjoyed a couple of days in Dallas at the National Baseball Convention. Jeremy and the guys enjoyed the classes and we got to enjoy some girl time. On the other hand, the kids got to enjoy some time at MaMa and PaPa's. They spent two nights in Brenham and Kennedy got to play some with Avery, Austin, and Caleb at their house and then they came up to visit at MaMa and PaPa's.....which she thought was a big treat!

Gum in Goldilock's Hair
I was thinking of updates in our lives... nothing immediately came to my mind with the exception of the normal in and outs. The pictures downloaded and...I remember last week I got a call from Jeremy as he is driving home with the kids, "Get ready Kennedy has gum in her hair!!!" It came out quite easily and without tears on anyone's part-maybe that is the reason that I almost forgot about it!

Some Funnies and Sweetness
Kennedy has definitely come out of her shell and has something to say about everything. These are some of the funny things that brought a smile to our face recently.
- "I love you to your heart!" Every night I tell her I love you with all my heart..this is her take on it. She has a big heart and at the oddest times she will come up and whisper "I love you" in our ear or the other day I got the above:)
- I want to go to the Donut Store and not the Paint Store. This came about when she wanted her nail polish off and after it was off she said the above and then came back with that she likes to get her toes painted not her nails.
- She prays for different things every night. Common themes are her grandparents, cousins, Cooper, different family members, baby Jesus, and she thanks God for helping her get big.
- Momma's word is the law:)....poor Daddy! ! Kennedy will ask Jeremy for something, he will give her an answer, and then she comes directly to me, Momma, "Can I have .....". After I answer the same she says, "Daddy, Momma said I could have the gum" or whatever was requested:)

1st Sleepover
This past Thursday cousin MacKenzie came to stay with Kennedy for two days. MaMa and PaPa took care of Jaxon to allow us to take the girls for a bit. Kennedy was yelling in excitement when she saw MacKenzie and was completely beside herself! We went to"Old MacDonald" (MacDonald's) and the "Paint Store" (Pedicure). It was nice to hang out and watch them play together.
