My Method to the Madness

Just in case you were unaware, my babies are amazing. I love them and I think they are AMAZING! So, here are some pics to let you see how beautiful they are and how fast they are growing! We went to Jason's cousin's graduation in Arkansas. It was so fun! The family rented a cabin on the lake and spent the whole weekend hanging out. It was so fun! This is Jake (Jason's cousin's husband) and he loves Bailey. They always have tons of fun together. Caden has a new love for cars. He played with this car all weekend! It was a remote control car, but he just zoomed it all over the floor all weekend. It was so cute to watch! He's such a little boy! We love nerf gun wars. The whole family was into it, Chuck was showing Bailey how to shoot... you have to start young! Mother's Day was our last day at the lake. The boys made a BEAUTIFUL breakfast for the moms (and 2 future moms). It was sooo amazing and was the perfect end to a wonderful weekend. The three cousins in their ...

We recently had a retreat with our Community Group out at the lake in the H&P Cabins. It was such a fun time and the kids were amazing. This picture is when they were up WAY too late, watching Kung Fu Panda at 11:30! They laid down on the couch so sweetly and watched the movie... Bailey fell asleep before it was over. One of the men in our group has a 10 year old boy, DJ who loved hanging out with Jason. They played Wii Sports Resort and Mario Kart. Jason and Bailey went down to the docks with DJ and his dad to fish. Bailey brought me back some flowers! My first flowers from Miss B, I loved them! Dave and Amy Conder LOVED playing with our kiddos. Bailey loved them too and gave them way more attention then she gave me, but that's alright, I get to live with her... I asked Jason to build a fire in the lodge, that attracted Dave which attracted DJ which attracted Caden. Soon, there were four men building one (very successful) fire! Dave and DJ on their way to fish. DJ is quite the...

We had a lovely weekend at the cabins with the Clarks and their small group. It was lovely! The weather had just enough chill in it to make the cabins extra cozy and everyone's cheeks just a little rosie. We played games, ate lots of food and just really relaxed. Bailey was so cute, toddling all over the place. She's quite the walker now. Since she's has walking down so well, we thought it was about time for her to learn another way of moving... We really had a blast out there, here are some highlights. Chuck taught Bailey how to play cards. We played lots of ping pong. Jason and I both beat Chuck (which is impressive if you know how good that man is with any kind of raquet!). Bailey discovere the wonder of a doorknob. Luckily she's not quite strong enough to pull open the door, but she sure was proud of herself! Here's Bailey perfecting her new driving skills. Notice the placements of the hands, the eyes on the road, the seriousness in which she takes this new resp...
