Gramee's 39th Birthday...

Ok, so she's not turning 39 (*giggle, giggle*)...but she is in the running for the "Gram with the most grand kids under 5" award!  We had her party at my house cause it's next to impossible to find any kind of restaurant that can hold all of us...much less feed all of us!

Gram with her angel babies.
Braxton didn't like all the "happy birthday" singing.

(*sigh*)...priceless.

My beautiful momma...with her beautiful momma...and Baby Greenlee.
 Em and Charlee.

Look who's walking!!!

Aimee and B.

E sneakin' a bite of Gram's cake...

Awww...what a little gentleman...sharing with his cuz.

Little Momma and Baby Greenlee.

 Oh!...I know this is totally off subject...but check out our new floors!  Just had them installed last week and I LOVE LOVE LOVE them! The ENTIRE downstairs (except for one carpeted room, and the laundry room) got replaced.  What a huge mess that whole process was!  We had to move out of our house for 5 days...and I thought I was going to have a breakdown when I walked in and saw nothing but sawdust all over everything.  But we eventually got it all cleaned up...and got us settled back in.  (Oh, and I probably could have chosen a better pic other than the boring hallway...but oh well.)

Ok, here's a better one.  I'm also doing some really neat stuff to this room...
it's just taking f-o-r-e-v-e-r cause I have to work on it during "naptime". 
So stay tuned for the before/after shots...
and will someone pleeeease help me pray that my kids start taking longer naps!?!?





My Little Song Bird...

A few weeks back, Lilee had her pre-school musical program.  She did great!  Mommy and Daddy were so proud!

"Miss Thing" posing before the show.
Yep...that's lipstick on those lips!
Mommy didn't realize it...she pulled a sneaky!


With her future husband (at least, if mommy has her pick of husbands for her!)...Josiah.
She looooves that he goes to the same school as her now!
Sing it girl!!

Lovin' Us Some Sunshine!...

70 degrees in February???  Yep!  So...me, MiMi, Charlee, Lilee, and Braxton just had to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather.


Lilee...being an expert slicky-slider...had to show Charlee how its done.

Woooooow Charlee!!

Ok Brax...it's your turn!

Then MiMi had to try it out...

Fun on the swings...

He LOVED it!

We Heart Valentines Day...

B with his favorite Valentine...his Big Sissy Lilee 
Just chillin'...
My heart...


My little man.  I could kiss those dimples all day long!!
Silly boy... 

"Ok Mom...no more pictures."

Mommy's angels...

There's nothing better...
no one that makes me smile as often as these two...
how'd I get so lucky...so unbelievably blessed?

Rewinding January...

Here are just a few pics from January.  Some cute...some silly...but ALL taken very quickly.  Why?...Cause my kids move at the speed of light!

"Oh man...she's got that stinkin' camera again!"

Here's Lilee introducing Barbie to her brother.  One day soon she'll wish she hadn't done that...when he's old enough to pull Barbie's hair out!  She already gets really ticked off when he gets his "baby drool" all over her stuff.

"It's T-Shirt Time, Baby!"
...for those of you who watch the show...you'll know what it means!

Me and my babies.

He's already getting annoyed at all the kisses...but he better just get use to it!

Daddy and his "Mini-Me"


Big Bro...Little Bro.

Yep...this kid gets kissed A LOT !

Braxton trying on Hunters new kicks!

Ok, I had to put this one on here.  Everyone knows that Lilee has to "test" everything out for her little brother, right?  Well, on this particular day, she snuck into Braxtons room and squeeeezed herself into his
 (size: newborn) outfit.  Then, as you can see...got very upset when she couldn't get it off.

Lilee reading the funnies on the way to church.

And here's my fav...
Braxton letting Big Sis rock him to sleep.

Life...right now,
is overwhelmingly perfect.
Our own crazy kind-of perfect.

Playing Catch-Up...

Yes, I know...I've totally been neglecting this blog!  Just really super busy right now.  I'm sure all you moms out there can agree...sometimes, more important things take priority.  Give me just a little longer...I'll eventually get back into the swing of things.  Until then...here's a little catch-up.  
A few Sunday's ago, was Braxton's dedication...and all of our family were there to share.  After church...a little lunch.  But let me tell ya...it's not easy finding a restaurant ready to seat a family of 19!

Our little family of 5 with Pastor and Virginia Wright.

"Bruiser B"...

Me and Hunter...
Yea, I know...I look really tired.
It's cause, I AM really tired!

Brian's Mom, Dad, and Grandma...talkin' to Baby B.

This next picture perfectly displays our life right now.  
Mom and Dad are currently out-numbered by the kids...
...yet, somehow we manage to still giggle at the chaos.
Even the simplest things are seemingly impossible.  
Like getting 2 adults and 3 kids to sit down and smile at the camera...
...all at the same time?...Yea right.
I hope this isn't an indication of how family photos are going to look from now on.

Right about the time we get everyone to hold still and smile...
Miss Lilee looks the other direction.  Oh well!

Well, at least all the munchkins are in one place.
As you can see, Braxton couldn't hang in there any longer.  

 Us with Gram and Papa

This picture, to me... is so precious.  
My two favorite people in the whole world...with all of their great-grand babies.

There's my boy...
ALWAYS smiling!

Here's a video of Baby B talkin' to his Daddy.
He's been talking like this since he was 2 1/2 months!...(no joke!)
When I was pregnant with him, we used to joke and say how Braxton will never EVER be able to get in even one word with a sister who's a "non-stop talker".
Well, I don't think that's going to be the case.  This child tries to talk more than his big sis already.
He's just a little less hyper...(thank the Lord!)
