Life hasn't stopped recently and I've had little time to update on our comings and goings. Today is Mother's Day. The day every mother waits for to be pampered and appreciated. For us, I was just greatful for a slower weekend without as many places to go. Although I cleaned the inside yesterday and Garrett worked outside, it still felt a little slower paced.
I wanted to share some of our Easter photos of our family. We really got a good shot of us five. Its hard now with three kids to get that perfect one.
For Easter, Jay and Mason each got bikes. Mason's bike is a balance bike with no pedals. He's so short, he can't reach the pedals, but it is another way for him to learn without training wheels. Jay just needed a new bike because his was getting small. I know they don't fit in an Easter basket, but instead of candy and such, a gift that they can get more use out of is better in the long run.
Today was not only Mother's Day, but Taylor's dedication day. Our church has changed a few things and now they only do it twice a year, with at most 10 couples at a time. This is the time we show the church that we are going to raise our kids in a Godly home.
The kids all did great. Taylor jumped around in my arms and made noises the entire time and Mason stole the congregations heart when he wanted to hold her Bible. All in all, it was a great time.
Last but not least, I'll leave off with a picture of Mason. We had spaghetti the other night, and we've really been better about letting him feed himself. He uses a spoon, but also uses his other hand to shovel it in, he definitely created a mess.
Hopefully the next update won't be as long, but a few things coming up if I don't get to update.
Jay's finishing up Kindergarten and me my 10th school year. Yikes!! The time has flown by.
Garrett's preparing to go back to Mozambique this summer.
We are starting the transition for Mason to get therapies through the school system.
T-ball is ending soon.
And many more exciting things that will really need to be shared.
Until next time....
