Mother's Day Weekend

Usually on Mother's Day I go to a Flower Nursery with my mom and grandma. This year we decided to go on Saturday instead. I took the kids with also, because Todd was working for half the day.


Matthew likes to pull the wagons around with the flowers in them, and Abby likes to ride in them.


Abby checking out some flowers for us.


Matthew being his usual weird self. I'm sure this will only get worse once he starts kindergarten next year. Abyy showing me the flowers she picked out for me for Mother's Day. I think she actually wants to give them to Grandma Wanda though. So we shall see how that pans out!








Then on Mother's Day we went to church and we had nursery duty for both Sunday School and the service. Usually we only do the Sunday School hour, and I was reminded why. To many screaming babys at one time! Anyways, after that we headed out to meet Uncle Luke and go fishing and shooting by a river near him. It was Matthew and Todd that wanted to do the Fishing/shooting and I wanted to be with to take pictures of Matthew and Uncle Luke fishing. Turned out to be a pretty nice fun day!


The kids had fun trying to catch fish. The both caught at least one, so that was great!


                                                                 Even I caught a fish!






Abby really turned into a Tom Girl yesterday! She really liked the fishing and also helping Grandpa Joe with his arrows and walking in the woods with Daddy!

Here is a small look at what we have been up to the last few weeks. First, we found out that we are going to be having another little girl! All I can say is Lord help us!!! Matthew was glad for a girl and Abby was hoping for a boy. We are all excited.

The other night we were outside and Matthew decided that he wanted to try riding his bike without training wheels. We said ok, and off he went. The next day he was literally riding in circles around `us. Pretty exciting to watch!

A few weeks ago everyone got haircuts but me. I realized I didn't have any pictures of this and decided we needed some.

I cut about two inches off of Abby's hair in hopes that it would help with snarls. I think it worked, and you really don't even notice I cut that much off.

Lastly, Todd took the kids to the zoo a few weeks ago when it was FREE! Free is the only time we go. The kids had fun feeding the animals and telling me about the horse named sassy!
