The Strenght of my LOVE.......

NO ONE ELSE will ever know the strength of my LOVE FOR YOU. After all, you're THE ONLY ONE who knows what my HEART sounds like from the inside.

I love this sweet little smile! She is talking so much more these days. Her favorite line is "Stop-it"! She says it when I wipe her nose, when I brush out her curls, and mostly~ To GRANT!




Sweet Children! I am so blessed to have healthy, happy children! Thank you God for so many blessings!
These are some old pictures from Easter. I may have already used them, but I wanted to update, so I put them on here. Sorry if you have already seen them.


Now this is payback. I don't buy guns, but this was a birthday gift for Grant. Reagan had obviously had enough this day.


I found this picture of Grant from when he turned 5. It is a picture of a picture~Not great quality. But look at the picture below. It is of Scott's mother. I think he looks JUST LIKE HER! Funny how you don't realize it from day to day, but then you see a picture and it hits you right in the face.

This is also a picture of a picture. Reagan looks like her too! Funny!

This is my little "go cart man". Isn't he a cutie! He loves going to his Honey's house.

My Daddy does it like this~ and my Momma does it like this!

So, when getting contacts~ Grant had to prove to the doctor that he could take care of them himself. So, he showed Dr. Feagin how Scott put his contacts in, and THEN, he showed him how I put my contacts in. You can always count on Grant for a good laugh.



Scott's technique




Momma's technique-


How funny is that! I use this "technique" a lot around the house. I have shown Scott my "technique" several times. HA! HA! HA!

Too Cool For School !

Grant got contacts! Yes people~6 years old~in kindergarten, and wearing contact lens! He broke his glasses Monday, and we couldn't get an appointment with his doctor, so we saw Dr. Feagin. He sat in the chair and said~ "I want contacts." The doctor just laughed. He said it again. The doctor looked at me and I said " I told him to talk to you about it Dr. Feagin". Dr. Feagin took me outside the door and said " as soon as we go towards his eye, he will shut down". Well, he didn't know my son. Grant sat there and let them put both of them in. Then, he showed them how he could take them out himself. He is such a mess. He loves being able to wear sunglasses. And, monkey see~monkey do! Reagan had to have some cool shades of her own.

I'm gonna' miss this cute little face with his glasses!!

He was so excited to be able to wear sunglasses at his ballgame.

She does every little thing her big brother does. I love these babies!!!!

Yep! He Said it~ My DEBIT!!!!!




Mrs. Kim is our favorite teacher at Evergreen!!! We love her soooo much!


This is Reagan and her friend Ella.




Passin' some time in the car on the way to the ballpark listening to Disney songs.



Grant is shaving and also he is learning how colors can mix to make different colors. We found some super fun elmo bath tablets that help us learn this in a fun way.





Standing in line at Wal-Mart, checking out, and about to pay~ Grant sees me take out my debit card and he says LOUDLY~ OHHHH~Momma, please let me push the buttons, you know, 1547~those #'s you always push! Everyone behind me just died laughing at him~AND ME! I could have just died. He is such a little rascal. I love him and all of the humor that he give our family. Not only our family I guess, every family behind us got a good laugh as well. Reagan is up to no good too! So bossy. Some new phrases are: SO DRAMATIC (as she holds her hand out), Stop it (as she shoves Grant), and "I don't think so". We are in for a long ride.



































































Easter Sunday Pictures and Fun!































Easter Sunday is always fun! Well, sort-of. We have a major day of organizing and time management skills to put into affect. Colby, Cameron, and Alisa meet us at church on this specific Sunday. We all spend it together. I think this is one of Alisa's tough days. Any day that involves family pics is usually tough. After church, a few pics, and eating with Scott's family, we head over to my mom's house. Now this is Real Deal! We have a SERIOUS egg hunt. The kids don't play. The little eggs are left everywhere. They are focused on that GOLDEN EGG! It is so competitive. We all 6 (mom's children) put money in it, so they "rack up the funds". Then, we play a competitive game of baseball. There is always lots of tears, slaps, yelling, and "NO FAIR" comments to go around. GOOD TIMES!

Momma "DOO" and Tee-ball TOO!!!!

Okay~ So what's with the title? All mom's will understand this~ "MommaDoo" : a hair style that either a "mother to be" gets while pregnant, or a hair style that a mother ends up with after having children. While I was pregnant with Grant, I was HUGE!!! I gained 80lbs with both of my pregnancies. So, I needed to feel beautiful~ and when I decided to cut my hair, I wanted it done immediately~ So, my "MommaDoo" was a MULLETT. Now, in the picture at the bottom of this post I am sportin' the "too busy to get a doo- MommaDoo". This is, of coarse, the post motherhood style-or lack of style. I am featured with nice gray and roots showing. And to all future mothers~ You will automatically be given 2 extra hands, on new foot, 6 additional fingers, and it will only cost you YOUR BRAIN!!!! Look at what all I am doin' in this picture~ I am holding AND feeding Reagan, I have my wallet, 2 drinks, french fries, my purse, and I am cheering for my MAIN LITTLE MAN!!! I didn't even realize how talented I was at the time. So, all of you mother's who are searching for your talent~ I bet you have the same skills, and you didn't even know it. That is what a "MOMMADOO"!!!!! :)

Friends Galore~ But we need MORE!!!!!

The Steltenpohl's~ Where do I begin? This is one GREAT family. Their sweet, precious, angel who serves roles such as daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece,and cousin is really suffering these days. An aggressive brain tumor is taking a toll on her little body. Her family remains faithful and puts everything in God's hands. Please pray for this family. They are the "ALL AMERICAN" family that can really make you realize that this can happen to anyone. God has answered numerous prayers in Lindsey's behalf so far. Christy, Lindsey's mother, was with her at the hospital~ about to be discharged home, and Lindsey took a surprising turn for the worse. Christy commented on her "caringbridge" page that she thought that she witnessed Lindsey take her last breath. My heart HURTS for this family. Please take a look at the pictures below. Hold your children, grandchildren, and loved ones, and realize how precious every minute is. Then, PRAY FOR LINDSEY and her FAMILY. IT WORKS!!!!!! Shortly after Christy witnessed this horrific incident in the hospital, Lindsey sat up and began acting like herself. That is a miracle. Thank You GOD!!!!! Please keep your hand on this family, as they are a true example of how having faith in God should~ and does~ work!

Hey~ Look at Joel's shoes in all of the pictures. He somehow manages to find his own style with everything he does. He and Madeline have matching soccer shoes. They are super bright and fashionable. CRAZY!!!!!! I am glad he gets to express his artistic style daily as an architect. He really does some great work. Love yall!




Mrs. Claudia was responsible for carrying the precious cargo to the car after she was done. She was exhausted. Reagan and I took a little walk on the walking trail. It was fun. We found a little waterfall and played on the playground for a little bit. It was HOT! It was an attempt to "wear her out" for the long ride home. IT WORKED! YEAH! Alyssa took some pictures of us. Reagan likes to make "silly faces" now. She thinks sticking her tongue out is hillarious. It kind of is when you see her~she has to concentrate and try so hard, but she can do it!
Madeline is quite the little soccer player. We stayed and watched her practice Saturday before we headed home for Dothan. I sure do wish we lived closer. I didn't realize how much I miss them until I got to spend 2 weekends "back to back" with them. Family is priceless. I'm glad that all of our girls will be close in age. The picture of Madeline with her hand raised is when the coaches were introducing her. You had to stand up and wave when the coach called out your name. Most of the other kids just kind of buried their heads in their parents shirt~but not Madeline. She stood up proud! She is so cute!!!!!
