I’m Free!

So excited to be turned around. Every time someone would tell Corbin that his Birthday was coming up, Lucy would always add…

”and he gets to turn around!”

Well this lasted about a week and then I turned him facing backwards because he slept better that way. Mean mom, I know.

Cutest boy ever!

Staheli Farm fieldtrip

Lucy’s preschool had an “adventure”

{as Lucy calls it} to the Farm. 

Kelly was in town for clinicals so I took Zoe and Makenzie along with us.

We saw lots of fun animals like goats, sheep, cows, llamas, a loud donkey, turkeys, chickens and of course…a horse!

This donkey loved Lucy. She even gave Lucy a surprise kiss when she wasn’t looking!

 

Next was the hayride out to the Pumpkin Patch!

Zoe, Kenzie, Lucy, Makenna, Grace & Natalie

The rain came so we were out of there.

Here is the whole Crazy gang of

Little Explores Preschool

Another fun day in the

life of a 4 year old!

Each year Mom and Dad invite us over for the Kentucky Derby.

That's right, the Derby! We love it.  The women wear their fanciest hats and chat, the men read up on the odds of each horse all while Dad passes out his famous Mint Juleps {virgin of course}. We all write our pick on the whiteboard {as seen in the photo} so there is no confusion when the winner crosses that finish line.  As for me, I just read the names of the horses and pick the best named horse.

Lucy really got into the race this year.  I let her wear my one and only derby hat…dollar store derby hat!    And the winner is… 

not really, but Grandma made sure Lucy got a trophy too!

So…

 all by myself.

I feel like everyday Corbin learns a new trick. Oh how time flies when you are having fun. This little boy is so fun and growing up so fast.

If you know Eric...you know he has a hidden talent of interlocking his toes with each other. From the day Corbin was born we knew he had Eric's feet, along with his talents. What a lucky boy.

 They are cousins.

…………..

Therefore…they are 7

weeks apart

and they LOVE

posing for whoever

wants to take their

picture!

……………….

The only thing I can think

is…     

If they are anything like

their Daddies!

     {because their Mommies were Angels}

I was so on top of things this Easter.  Shenise was in town and we found some really cute Easter outfits for the kids to wear.  After buying them and getting them home I soon realized...Easter was on Conference weekend.  I debated on taking them back but they looked too cute so we kept them!  Therefore we dressed up the week before Easter in our “Easter Outfits” and we were…

All dressed up with nowhere to go!

 

  Corbin looked so handsome with his shirt and tie. He was being so silly and loving the camera.

 I think I should send this photo into  The Children’s Place.  It looks like he is modeling his tie!

 And my favorite picture…Lucy is so good to her baby brother.  These are some of Heavenly Fathers greatest gifts, ever!     With one child I have to make myself scream, clap, dance & tickle to get him to look and smile at the camera…and then there is Lucy, she tells me when and where to take her picture. She is so beautiful and growing up too fast.

{but what do I know, I am just her mom}
