LONG OVERDUE

Ok..So I have been a slacker lately. Our computer crashed and we had to purchase a new one, so that slowed me down a bit. After that, I just got plain lazy! I have posted several pictures below that go all the way back to Halloween. After Christmas I will post more again.

As for the boys, they are great and growing up too fast. Ethan is beginning to talk more clearly and is learning things every day. I'm suprised at how much he absorbs...which is kinda scary! Lathan now has 6 teeth (which comes in handy since he loves to eat) and is almost walking! They are beginning to interact with each other more, and wrestling has becoming the favorite activity. I guess that's what happens when you live with 3 males!

Keep watch for more pictures to come!

Fun Times



Definately a picture to show the future girlfriends!

Playing outside


Lathan has turned into a thumb-sucker!


Our friends, Hannah & Jackson, came to visit us. They all took a ride in Ethan's new truck.


He's too cute for his own good!
We are not far from crawling...Lathan is rocking on all four's now.

Zoo Trip

We orginally had plans to go to San Antonio for the weekend. We were going to take the kids to the zoo and riverwalk. Earlier in the week, Lathan got pink eye and an ear infection, and Ethan had hand, foot, and mouth disease. Needless to say, we decided an overnight trip was not really the best idea. Instead we took a day trip to the Waco zoo. The weather was nice and the boys did very well.
I had them dressed in color coordinated outfits (blue and orange). Nate thought I was a dork, but I wanted to make the pictures cute. Well, my idea was destroyed when Ethan decided he wanted to wear his bright red Atkinson Toyota hat that Pappy gave him. I tried to get him to wear a khaki or blue hat (since Lathan had a blue hat on), but there was no changing his mind. He held on to that hat very tight (see below) all the way to Waco. So Dad, he's definately great advertisement for you! After all the fuss...it ended up being really cute to watch him be a big boy with his hat.

Ethan chasing the pacing "cheetah" (as Nate called it). He loved this one!

Nate is showing Ethan the snakes...my least favorite animal. Of course, I have a son who is especially intrigued by them! I just pray that someday he doesn't pick one up and try to play with it.
