MEEESSSKA MOOOOSKA......

Mickey Mouse!!!! Mommy and Aydan had a special date night while Ethan and Daddy hung out at home. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse came to the VBC in Huntsville on Friday night. Aydan and mommy were joined by Memaw, Aunt Summer, Hunter, and Gavin. Aydan and the other boys had a great time.

Scrub a DUB DUB

How many boys can fit in a baby tub??? Aydan and Ethan love bath time.

OH NO!!! The Big 3-0

Clint turned 30 on March the 6th. We had a huge celebration at Elliott's branch in Belgreen Alabama. We rented a lakeside cabin for the weekend and invited friends and family down for an old fashioned fish fry and a day of hanging out and fishing. This is what a sunrise looks like on a 30th birthday. Aydan really thought the cake was yummy!!

MoMmY wOw... I'm A bIg KiD nOw!

That is right...he is wearing the baddest and toughest dinosaur boxers known to man! LOL here over the past few weeks Aydan has taken a keen interest in the potty. He has attempted to flush Eva's duck and Nemo's giraffe. While I clean the bathroom he will clean the toilet (with the brush). After Mommy, Daddy and Memaw get done going to the restroom he has to flush it and clap for us. It is a hoot...but his interest in using the potty started out with watching how Daddy went in the restroom. Then it turned into I can do like Daddy in the shower/tub. So Memaw and I have been working on getting Aydan to go potty in the big boy toilet. I have gotten him to sit on it several times and Memaw has gotten him to go potty a few times. But tonight before his bath he ran into the bathroom started tugging at his diaper and saying "Me, Me". It was bath time anyway so I took his diaper off and put him on the potty. Sure enough he had to go! After he went potty I gave him a Hershey Kiss and we threw a huge Party in the Potty... he was so proud of himself, but not nearly as proud as I was. My baby boy is growing up too fast, I don't know if I am ready for all this. Slow down world! :)

TuB tImE!

Where, oh where, have my little boys gone! Saturday morning is"Family Bath Day"...LOL just something silly that we have said since Aydan was born. We take baths during the week too, but Saturday has always just been a special day because ever since he was old enough Aydan would take a bath with either Clint or I. This family bath day Aydan helped me out some. It is hilarious watching him grow up as a big brother. The things that he had little or no interest in as an infant are now the greatest things in the world. For example his baby bath tub. I believe the pictures explain it all :)

Ethan enjoying his bath. He has turned into a little chunk so fast. At his last appointment he weighed 14 lbs. 6 oz. He is the HAPPIEST baby I have ever encountered. He is a little over 2 months old and can hold his head up on his own, has begun giggling, and definitely knows what he wants and when he wants it. I love you baby boy!

Aydan is mister independent now! He has always been one of those children that knows what he is doing and does not need your help. But since Ethan has arrived he has become more independent. He is such a good big brother. He comforts Ethan when he is crying, brings him his bottles and diapers, and throws away all the trash. Apparently he was ready to give himself a bath on Saturday. Aydan CRACKS me up...he has the best PERSONALITY of anyone I know. He is so easy going and laid back...until he does not get his way. LOL...keep up the good work Big Boy, I love you!

Thanks Uncle Neph and Aunt Am!

Our family is so blessed to have great friends and family. Everyone takes such good care of all of us. Two of the people that spoil Aydan and Ethan are Uncle Nephew and Aunt Amber. AKA Uncle Neph and Aunt Am. They are always spoiling our 2 little boys with love and gifts. This Valentine's Day they bought Aydan and Ethan polo shirts. They loved them...Aydan's favorite part was the card. It had a little frog on it and it stuck its tongue out. He had a blast laughing at the card and playing with it.

This Valentine's Day we celebrated with family date day. It started in the morning when Clint made our family pancakes. They were delicious! Then we played for a little bit. Before you knew it, it was nap time. So we laid down and took a nap. When Aydan woke up we got dressed and headed to the mall to play. We played at the play park, the arcade and rode on those quarter rides. It was awesome! Then we enjoyed a nice romantic dinner at Casa Blanca. It was definitely the best Valentine's Day ever with the 3 LOVES of my life. Thanks Clint, Aydan and Ethan! I love you boys!
