Happy Mother's Day!

Hard to believe this is my fifth Mother's Day!  I always knew I wanted to be a Mom and I am so fortunate that I am.  So glad that I get to spend the day with Reese and our girls.  The only thing better would be spending the day with my Mom!   Happy Mother's Day!

  This was my gift from Sage.  Shae made it at school, on the pot there is a picture of her and a drawing that she did!

Happy Birthday Corvin!

Today Corvin turns 7!   Happy Birthday Buddy!   We hope you have a great day.  I can't believe you  are seven - the years have flown by.  I remember the day you were born and how excited I was to be an Aunt! 

 This is the most recent picture I have of Corvin playing 

games at Sage's 4th birthday party. 

Fun at the Ranch

Next up was a week at the Ranch with Mimi, Pop-Pop, Uncle Russ, Sloan and Finn.  We had a great time seeing everybody!  The cousins all had fun playing and driving the John Deere tractor and gator.  It was a lesson in patience as there are three kids to drive the tractor and gator but only two vehicles to drive. 

Here is Finn waiting on the big Gator to go drive the little one. 

 The kids all got new cowboy boots!  They had to be worn as soon as they got back to the ranch.   They didn't have Sage's size at the first store.  So we had to go to two more stores to find her size and they had to have sparkles on them!

Pop-Pop and Quinn having some fun!

Grabbing toys

It is so fun to watch Quinn as she reaches a new developmental milestone.  This was back on April 9th and she was laying on her playmat and for the first time grabbed on to the toys hanging above her.  She was so pleased with herself! 

Hanging out!

I try to send Reese pictures of the girls while he is working.  Some weeks I am better than others.  This was one I got of Quinn just hanging out!

Our Big Girl!

I snapped this while we were out running errands.  Each time I look at her I can't believe how big our girl is!  She is wearing her favorite shirt.  It has sparkles and glitter all over it and if I would let her wear it every day she would!

Tummy Time

Quinn hasn't been a big fan of tummy time.  When we got back from my parents I put her on her tummy but used the boppy pillow (thanks for the suggestion Nana!).  I am happy to say she is doing much better with tummy time.  

It helps during tummy time when you have a big sister to talk to!

Up North Trip

We had a great time at my parents last month.  Sage was on Spring Break and Reese was supposed to travel most of the week so I took off with the girls on our 10 hour day of travel.  Reese ended up not traveling and getting a ton of stuff done at our house!  Sage was a great traveler and Quinn did really well!   We only stopped three times on the way there.  Coming home was a different story Quinn wasn't happy and we made lots of stops and I was very glad to get home and be off the road.  We had lots of fun at my parents and here are some pictures of our fun times!

 Planting with Nana

Sage had so much fun helping Nana plant tomatoes and cosmos.  Nana has a greenhouse and gets lots of plants started before they get planted outside.  Sage loved helping Nana!

Baking Bread with Papa!

 While we were up north Sage had to make bread with Papa.  She loves to pound the bread. 

 Playdate at Nana's!

 A few friends and their kids came over to my parents for a playdate.  It was so fun to see all the kids.  Here are Camdyn and Quinn (Quinn is 3 weeks older than Camdyn).  Look at those cheeks on Quinn!

 A visit with Great-Grandpa

 We went to see my Grandpa and had a great afternoon.  He hadn't met Quinn yet and he enjoyed holding her.  She kept grabbing onto his finger and he loved it! 

 Sewing with Nana!

Nana is always making things for the kids and they love it!  Sage wanted to help Nana sew.  Sage says that she wants her own sewing machine.  Looks like I have to learn how to sew!  

Busy Month

I can't believe it has been a month since I have blogged.  I have missed it and I hope you all have too!  I was just going through my pictures and there are lots to share.  We have had a really busy month so no blogging for me and we also got a new computer.  I was having technical difficulties (thanks Papa for building the computer and helping me out!).  Our busy month:  we were at my parents for ten days, home for a week, gone to Texas for eight days, then some friends were in town for three days, and then Nana and Papa visited for four days.  Whew!  We are glad to be home and so glad that Spring is here.  Except for my horrible allergies we are loving Spring.   Back to blogging I go!
