Been busy!

Whew, where did the week go?! I can't update you on much, because truth is - I can't remember much! LOL!!!

Ryann has been home for the past week, and it has been WONDERFUL! She really is a joy to be around. She is getting just too smart! We were driving around today, and talking about what letter words begin with. She was asking me and I would tell her, "Car starts with the letter C". Then I switched things up on her. She said something about the water tower, so I ask her what letter water started with. She sat for a minute... I said "Ryann what letter makes the Wh sound?" Another second passes..... Then with total excitement, "W, W says Wh!!!! Is that right?!" I was so proud of her. She knows what sound each letter makes. Just amazing I tell ya! We got her all signed up for soccer today. She'll be playing indoor, and couldn't be more excited! We don't yet know what team she'll be on, but should be finding out very soon. Daddy is VERY excited too!! The season officially starts June 22, so be expecting LOTS of pictures around then. Ryann is going back to her mommy tomorrow, but will be back real soon. We can't wait to have her here for EIGHT weeks starting later this month.

Not much new with Aiden, except have I mentioned how handsome he is? Oh my, I swear; (and I may be just a LITTLE bias) he is the best looking little boy I have ever seen! He is going to be SO jealous when Ryann gets to play soccer, and he is stuck sitting in the stands. Aiden LOVES sports, doesn't matter which one; if it requires a ball or running you can bet he wants to play! He loves to sing, and dance, talk - boy dose he like to talk! He loves coloring, painting, and he is DYING to get into my stamps! He is so much fun right now. I'm not ready for him to grow out of this stage. Speaking of growing, big foot is now in an 81/2 to size 9 shoes!!!!!!!!! Ryann is just now into a 9. We are going to have one big teenager on our hands if he doesn’t slow down! Crazy to think, he really is going to be a teenager one day.

I got some big news via email today! Jennifer Kravitz, (my cousin) is now engaged!!! She and John will tie the not January of next year in San Angelo! We are so happy for you two!! Take care of our girl John!

I've got lots of new pictures, I'll try to get them up tomorrow. Guess that's it for now. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Back home

Adam and I got back from San Antonio last night. We picked up the kiddos from Gamma and Papa's house and headed home. We had a wonderful time, but were happy to be back home with our family. We did a lot of sight seeing, and just enjoyed some much needed time alone.

We're headed to the Ranger game tonight to help Ember celebrate her birthday! It should be a blast - hope the rain holds off till it's over.

Hope you all enjoy your long weekend.

New pictures are up!

Wonderful weekend!

We had a wonderful weekend! Adam, the kids and I had a picnic at the Botanic Gardens. It was a BEAUTIFUL day ~ It was made for spending some quality family time outside. We ate, and then Adam and the kids played soccer. It was a wonderful time!! This was my mother's day, since Ryann was not with us last weekend. I couldn't have thought up a better way to spend my afternoon.

That evening we headed to Denton to watch Ashelynn at her first State comp. She did AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! She will be moving up to level 5 next week. We also found out what a little smarty Miss. Ashelynn is too. She is finishing up the third grade, which means she took the TAKs exam. She scored a 100 on the reading section and a 99 on the math! She is being urged by her teachers to join the math team. She said she is thinking about it. I mean this girl got it all ~ looks, athletic talent, and brains!

Over all she scored a 35.125 out of a possible 40 - she is amazing!

Lots of new pictures up! LOTS of the kids at the gardens and just about all of Ashelynn's meet. The pictures from the meet start on pg22 in the May folder. A lot of them are pretty blurry because I couldn't use a flash, and my battery was just about gone.

Hope you all have a wonderul week!

Grades are in!!!!!!!

And of course Adam made all A's!! I'm not at all surprised, but I am extremely proud!!!! He starts back for the summer session next Tuesday. Only 2 and a half more years to go!

We have Ryann and her little sister, Kamri with us this weekend. It's been a lot of fun. Ryann is getting so big, and if it's possible more beautiful every time I see her. She is a living doll! Aiden is really enjoying having both girls here.

Adam and I are leaving Wednesday for San Antonio. I can hardly wait! Aiden will spend those days at Gamma and Papa's house. I know he is going to have a wonderful time!!

Lots of new pictures up!

Mother's Day weekend...

Sorry these post are so few, and far between. We are staying busy. Adam finished up school last week. We are trying to spend as much time together as possible before he starts back in two weeks. Grades haven't been posted yet, but I know he did fabulous! We're thinking about getting away for a few days next week. Not sure what we'll do with a little bit of time to relax. No kids, work, and school - I can hardly imagine!

Aiden is doing great! Getting SO big!!! It's amazing that he is no longer a baby, or baby like. And he is ALL boy! The day isn't complete if he hasn't thrown, kicked or hit a ball. He is SO funny too. The things that come out of his mouth keep us rolling.

Ryann is SO big! Can you believe she'll be turning FIVE in two months?!!! SHOCKING! Time has flown where these kids are concerned. Why couldn't they stay baby-ish for a little longer? Ryann is ready for school to start. She talks about it all the time. Not much new with her, except she continues to amaze us daily!

We had a wonderful Mother's day weekend. Adam had soccer games all weekend. 12 to be exact. Friday night Aiden and I went to a few. Aiden had a blast. He ran out onto the field twice. The first time he really didn't know that he shouldn't be out there, but the crowd laughed and clapped, so he did it again. Always a performer! Saturday Aiden spent the day with Gamma and Papa. He had a wonderful time! I helped Kay throw out the mounds and mounds of trash at her old house. Sunday Aiden and I went to lunch with Kay and Craig at Texas De Brazil; we ate till we were ready to pop! Then we all had dinner with Gamma and Papa. I had a wonderful Mother's Day. Got lots of goodies! Thank you everyone for making me feel so special. We'll celebrate mother's day with both kids this weekend. We've missed Ryann so much, can't wait for Friday to get here!

Hope you're all doing great!

Nothing New

Life has been rather uneventful lately. Things seem to be moving in slow motion, except Aiden. He has picked up some extra energy some where. I remember when Ryann hit this stage. Aiden will run around in a circle speaking his own language, making funny faces, just being SILLY. He is SO much fun right now. I don't understand the whole terrible two stage. Both Ryann and Aiden were and are SO much fun. I would be happy to keep him like this for a while.

Adam finishes up school on Thursday. He'll be out for two weeks, then it's back for summer school. He is doing great! I'm so proud of him. He keep plenty busy. Work, school, and soccer games on the weekend. Busy, Busy!

I guess that's about it for now. We hope you're all doing wonderful!

What?!!

It's MAY, already?! Where did the time go? Although I must admit, I'm happy - this is my favorite time of year! Lots of time outside, the kids will be so pleased.

Nothing new to report since my last post, except I finally got all of April's pictures up. The new ones start on page 4 of the April folder. You HAVE to check them out! You'll get to see just how amazing Suzette looked at her wedding, and what a wonderful dancer our little ladies man is. He sat and watched Adam and I dance, then took some little girls hand - I think he was trying his hand at West Coast swing... too cute! Lots of cute pictures of our little princess up too. I'll try to keep up better this month.

Hope you're all doing great!
