Party of Five: 2009

Welcome Fall! We have had many firsts this month... Bucky's 1st day of Kindergarten. Dawson & Sawyer started daycare. Bucky lost his first tooth. The twins first started crawling and now are pulling up to stand. Wow!

We celebrated Russell's 33rd birthday and spent Labor Day Weekend with Uncle James and Grandmother. We had a great relaxing weekend! Russell, Bucky & I went to the AU vs Miss State game and had a blast.

What a fun & Busy July!!! We started by spending a week in Birmingham for Bucky to attend Zoo camp. We stayed at the Ross Bridge Resort in Hoover and it was so nice. We got to meet our new sweet friend Mackenzie Grace and spent some time with my Grandmother. Bucky LOVED zoo camp and I am sure we will go back next year! We celebrated Jason's Birthday at Mom's Pool and have enjoyed spending time with friends and Family this Month. Dawson & Sawyer are growing so quickly. While we were gone on our anniversary trip to the beach, Dawson started saying "dada" and Sawyer got a tooth!!! Bucky will be loosing his first tooth anyday now. Bucky starts school August 10th. The summer has flown by!!!

We spent a week in Orange Beach for Father's day. We had a great time! I'm not sure how much relaxation Russell got in over the week, but we had lots of fun and made many happy memories!

Brotherly Love!

The boys are growing so fast. They are really enjoying each other's company these days. You can see them smiling and holding hands in one picture! They are the happiest babies. We are so blessed...

First Food!

Dawson & Sawyer had their first baby food today. Sawyer liked it better than Dawson. Squash was on the menu today. Also, in the center is what I found in Dawson's crib this afternoon. Emma thinks she is his Mama!!!

We got to catch up with friends Bo & Amy & sweet Aiden over the weekend. We had a great time!!!

We had the best time at Uncle James' house. He prepared a delicious shrimp boil and rib bbq for us~ Yummy! We had a blast in the pool & enjoyed seeing his wildlife in his backyard!!!

Memorial Weekend 2009

Dawson & Sawyer 5 day old Blastocysts

This is Dawson and Sawyer as 5 day old blastocysts. This picture was taken right before the doctor put them in. The nurse handed me the picture and said "I hope this is the first picture in your baby book". We were given 30% chance of success.

"...if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you." Matthew 17:20

Mackenzie is almost here!

Brooke had her baby shower today. This is a picture of me saying "hello" to Mackenzie...

Bucky's first hit!

Well, I better learn to like hot Spring days on the ballfield!!!

Fun at the park!

I took Erma, Bucky, Dawson, Sawyer, Sarah, Joshua, and Daniel to West Point Lake for a little after school fun!!!

Bucky asked yesterday "Mommy, is my Papa in heaven?" 'Yes, son, he is' I said. "and when we die, we'll go to heaven and see him?" he asked. 'Yes, son, we'll see him. Heaven is a perfect place' I answered. "I bet he picks a different snack everyday" Bucky says with a smile. 'Yes, son, I bet he does'...
