First Day of School 2009

Izzy's school is now a uniform school. I love it both as a teacher and a parent. I spent a lot less money on school clothes this year. They do not have to wear uniforms on Friday.

Distracted Driver

Cole loves his car! This is a picture of him mutli-tasking.....driving his car, drinking his milk and playing on my old dead cell phone.

May 2009 Photos

These are a few photos taken in our yard this month that I wanted to share. Cole is unwilling to sit for photos, but I managed to get get a good one of him grinning. He only has 6 teeth (four on top and two on bottom). The side shot also shows a slight "curl" in his hair. Shirley begged me not to cut his hair because she thought it would curl and now I am glad I listened. Izzy loves flowers and is a great helper in the garden. We had a lesson on weeding last night.

Izzy with Crazy Hair!

Izzy got this hair do compliments of her school's Spring Fling last Saturday.

Easter Pictures from Talladega

These pictures were taken at my sister's on Easter. She and my mom were gracious enough to keep the kids while we were on vacation in AZ and CA.

Easter Photo

Wow... It is so hard to get both kids to smile at the same time. I must have taken 50 pictures to get this one. Our Easter Egg Hunt at church had to be held inside so i really don't have any cute pictures.

Here are some picture of Izzy "bathtizing" Cole in the tub. Of course she means "baptize", but I am just glad she pays attention in church.

New Cole Photos

Cole and I recently visited my life long friend Joy and her family in Birmingham. Joy is a hobby photographer and she snapped some great pictures of Cole during our visit.Enjoy!

Here are our pictures from SNOW DAY March 1, 2009.

Izzy and Nathan attend Daddy Daughter Dance

Nathan and Izzy attended the Daddy Daughter Dance at St. Luke on Friday night. It was a fundraiser for Chloe, a 5 year girl with neuroblastoma, to offset medical cost. Izzy was super exited about wearing a frilly dress (thanks for the dress Shannon!), painting her fingernails, and having her hair curled. I ask God for blessing on Chloe and strength for all she has gone through and will continue to go through on her journey to beat cancer. We are soooooo lucky to have healthy children and I want to thank God for that. You can visit www.prayforchloe.com for more details.

Cole's One Year Old check up

Cole had his one year check up today. I couldn't resist looking back at his baby pictures and thinking about how fast he is growing. He was born weighing 8 lbs, 15 ounces and 21 inches long. Now he weighs 24.5 lbs (67%) and is 31 inches long(79%). Those are great numbers because he was underweight at his last visit. He is a very active boy.

Is it spring yet?

I wanted to share this picture of Izzy and Cole. We can't wait for the warmer weather to be here to stay.

Happy 1st Birthday Cole!
