Easter and G-Day


We are busy prepping for our crazy spring/summer! I can't believe our big move is still a month away. I'm so ready to get settled in our new home! Plus, we have two big birthdays coming up for both of the boys in the next 6 weeks! I'm very happy to report that Mason is officially potty trained (with a few accidents, but he's doing great!) and Matthew has 4 teeth! The little man popped out two bottom teeth when he was about 10 mos old and the top 2 just showed up last week. He has been waking a little bit at night, but otherwise, it hasn't seemed to bother him too much. And he's oh so close to walking. He can stand for a few seconds un-aided and usually falls forward when he tries a few steps. But that doesn't stop him from getting into everything. He gets around VERY well crawling and cruising.

Here are a few pictures from our Easter picnic and the Georgia Spring game. This year was special because Mason got to go to the game with Daddy and Dee while Mommy and Mimi stayed home with Matthew. Yes, Dee put away his Auburn shirt just for one day to cheer on the Dawgs with his grandson. Mason was old enough to really get into the game (well, for a quarter or 2) and it was a gorgeous Saturday in Athens!

Mason showing off his loot from the hunt. He really got the hang of it this year!

Sweet boys in their Georgia attire. It is impossible to get them to both sit still and look at the camera!

The 'big boys' headed to Athens! And a blackmail shot of Dee in his Georgia attire.

What?? I don't get to go?

Spring Pictures

I just wanted to post the boys' spring pictures from school. I will post some Easter pictures as soon as I upload them. We had a blast visiting my extended family in Alabama again this year. Mason really got the hang of the Easter Egg hunting, but poor Matthew just wasn't himself as he was recovering from yet another stomach bug. We're all healthy now, which is a good thing because....

WE'RE MOVING!!!!!!!!

More to come, but it's going to be a CRAZY spring/summer for us as we get packed up and settled in our new home. It's not far from where we live now, but we are moving to a wonderful family-friendly neighborhood and the house is a much better fit for us. If all goes well, we should be closing on May 24th and moving Memorial Day weekend. We had been preparing our house to sell and looking for a new home since January. Then everything suddenly happened overnight. We got a contract on ours within days of listing it and found our dream home the very same day! It feels like it was just meant to be. Please pray for us (me) to survive this whole process - I'm going to need all the help I can get!

Mason 2.5 years

Matthew - 10 months
