Coach Pitch!

Cambrie had her 1st coach pitch game this week and what a difference a year can make. It is completely different than watching T-ball. I love the picture of her swinging at the ball. If you look closely, her eyes are shut.


Running the bases!

So happy to be a Mom!

Tatum's Preschool had a Moms & Muffins day this week. It was so fun to go to her school and to see her excitement as she gave me the bath salts she had made for me.
This morning I awoke to breakfast in bed with these cute letters . . .

I'm so blessed to be a mother to these 3 amazing children.
Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs . . . since the payment is pure love.

Introducing the chicks!

Well, hopefully they are chicks. We still won't know for a bit if we have hens or roosters, but here are a few of them. We had to take a mugshot of each one and hang the picture along with their name in the chicken coop (Cambrie's idea). The kids love having them. They are up at the crack of dawn checking on them. We have 11 total, but I'll spare you all the pictures. Here are just a few of them.

Tatum's 1st T-Ball Game!

Tatum has been chomping at the bit to have her own turn to play T-ball. Well, the time is here, and now she is just not so sure she's ready to be out there. Here she is waiting for her turn to bat.

Here she is getting ready to swing!

Here she is striking a yoga pose - but wait, that's the wrong sport.

Here she is with the "Thumbs up, I'm ready Dad" {but hopefully they don't hit it to her because she's looking at Dad and not at the ball.}

It took a bit to get warmed up, but now she's counting down the days until her next game. Jason is still wondering how he managed to father 2 girls that seem to both be lacking his aggressive and competitive genes?!

Getting ready for the chicks!

Jason's been working hard building a coop for the chicks we are soon getting, so we thought we would pitch in by decorating the inside.

Mess Makers . . .

Here are Jake and his little buddy Ava cooking up some fun.
They loved painting!

And making brownies was lots of fun too!
