March Happenings

We had Ginny's baby shower here on the 14th and it was so fun! Ginny & Nathan have been like family to us and we were so excited to be able to do her baby shower. Ginny's Mom flew in from Alabama and brought some of Ginny's baby clothes and pictures. I think it added a little something special to the shower. They are not finding out the sex of the baby but Sara Kate thinks it's going to be a girl, we'll have to wait & see!

Ginny posing by the food. Rachel & made her diaper cake which I think turned out so cute!

Love, love, love these girls! Rebecca is holding her new son, Ryan, such a cutie!

Hostesses: me, Rachel, Ginny, Rebecca, Amanda (who is due any day), English (had her baby 2 days after the shower), & Brittany

Saturday we took the kids to see Disney on Ice. It was
a lot of fun! I think the kids really enjoyed seeing it, especially the princesses!

Holly, Cole, Cambell, Naomi, Rachel, SK & me

Happy 1st Birthday Shepherd!

Shepherd getting his first hair cut. This is how he started...

still liking the car...

this is pretty fun...

not so sure about the car anymore...

Mommy's lap is much better! My children are so much alike. Sara Kate would never sit in the fun cars, she always wanted to be in my lap. Shep is the same, he did great, just in Mommy's lap!

such a big boy!

Celebrating his birthday the night before. This cracker is so yummy!

can't believe my little man is 1!!

celebrating with cupcakes

Very thankful for our family! Shepherd, you completed us! :)

I thought that he would dig right in but he looked at it and then put it down. Is he really my child?

Luke did the same! Well, I think he ate a little bit more than Shep. We celebrated both the boys birthdays with the Sumner's.

Thanks for the fun presents!

Ginny & Nathan with all the kids. I think they've gotten some great practice with these crazy kids!

coloring is so much fun too!

That afternoon we went to the park for some pizza. It was a little chilly, Shep was ready to go home!

It's his birthday and he'll cry if he wants to! :)

We are so very thankful for Shepherd. He has blessed us in so many ways. I can't imagine our life without him. We love you Shepherd!
