Will power

I did it again..I stayed strong and resisted the urge to buy school pictures, but dang it was hard this time!!!!!!!!!  I LOVED this one of the boys together..LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!!!!  If the packages were different I would have been all over it..but I just wanted one 5x7 of this one and maybe another few, but they only do the "way to many pictures" packages..bummer!! 

It's not like I am hurting for pictures though!!!

 

This one kills me....he looks SOOOO old..and handsome!

I swear his pants are long enough when he stands..the high waters were keeping me from wanting this one!

I still cannot talk about this yet....:(:(:(:(:(:(

It's baseball time again!

So, Charlie is playing baseball again this year and can I just say that I LOVE to watch kids play baseball!  I know my husband would love for one of our kids to love soccer, but I am really enjoying the baseball:)  Even better this year..we are playing with Charlie's cousin Brady!  He is defiantly having more fun with a friend on the team:)

My lefty..he often forgets how to position his hands, but once he does he can get the ball pretty far!

But he can only swing once he does his practice swing:)

Playing pitcher!

Misc

He stole her bow..Charlie makes me laugh EVERY single day!

Beautiful blue eyes!

This looks comfy, right?!

 

These next three pictures were an attempt to get a cute sucker picture to send to Daddy....I gave up after like 5 that all looked like this !!

Lets get caught up!

I didn't intend to take a break...it just happened!  Once I realized how long it had been I decided to give myself a break until May...it was kinda nice to not have that "I need to blog" guilt!  Just cause the blog took a break does not mean my kiddos did too!!  We have been BUSY!!!

Harper is QUEEN of pulling her hair out of a pony tail..or her version of it....and this is what is left behind.  Heaven help us when we are out in public and I cannot find another hair tie!!

We are slowly making progress on a more normal smile!

Cool girl

Look closely at that grin...aghhh, he kills me!

Charlie often refuses to sleep in his bed..for numerous reasons...its to hard, its to soft, its to scratchy, its to bumpy, etc.  The places we have found this kids are entertaining to say the least!

My kiddos have a good daddy!  I think my mother-in-law and I both sent him this pinterest link for a race car and his next off day he built it with the boys!

White trashing it at the deer lease!

I'm really loving her in sunglasses!

Papa and 3/5 of his grand kids!

This car has yet to get old!

Valentines Day

Happy Valentines Day..a month late!!!  I love the month of February for one simple reason..I LOVE commerical-ized holidays!!...Kidding!!  No, the real reason I love Feb 1-14 is those little mail boxes on my table.  Each morning there is a small piece of candy and a note from Mommy telling each kiddo how great, special and wonderful they are!  My favorite part this year was one day I was running late in the morning and didn't get a chance to write a note so I just put candy in the mail boxes.  When I got home that night Charlie told me that I owed him 2 notes the next day....turn out he liked the notes just as much as the candy.....what a shockingly nice treat!!!!

 

Valentines  morning consisted of red heart pancakes and the boys diving into their valentines baskets!  This year I skimped on the candy and threw in things like band aids...things they like to waste play with..that they usually don't get to play with!

 

 

The boys wore their Valentines tattoo's to school that day...each on their cheek!

LOVE these silly and sweet boys!!

First Date

Harper Jane had her first date...thank goodness I approved of her date!!!  I hope this tradition continues for many more years and I hope she learns very young how she is supposed to be treated.  Her daddy has ALWAYS treated me how God wants him to and I pray all three of the kids see that and either model that or expect that!  These three kids are super lucky to have Bradley as their daddy!!

 

Harper Jane got flowers from her Grandaddy for the special night!!  She is such a lucky girl!!

Pajama Day at school!

The boys had PJ day at school and I have decided I love this day!!  Although, I'm not sure its actually any easier to get them ready!  Bradley was surprised to find I didn't send them to school in the PJ's they slept in..it just seems..weird??

Anyway, they looked adorable...although I am still not sure what was on Charlie's pajamas..Ninjago(sp) ??????

Of course he wanted to pose!!
