Our Life: Enjoying January

Enjoying January

I have just recently felt like I could take a deep breath since the wreck. I didnt even really realize I was holding it, but once I did and I let it out, it has felt good. I dont really remember what I have been doing, but I know I wasnt enjoying my kids and husband like I should be. For the year of 2011, my resolutions could be summed up the word-SIMPLIFY! I really made an effort to simplify our schedule, our budget, and our overall lifestyle. For 2012, I wanted my resolution to be SEEK. Seeking God, seeking quality time with my kids, seeking the relationship with Luke that has been lacking. It is just February, and I have already noticed a change in my attitude towards it all. I cant wait to see what the rest of 2012 brings with my attempts to SEEK.
Here are my babies enjoying some bubbles from our new bubble machine!

Just chillin, watchin Dora.

My studly cousin, Cole, was on Houston’s Winterfest Court. So proud of him even if he is going to that other school in Mississippi.

In other big news, Kate has gotten her driver’s license and we have upgraded Preston’s life insurance policy.

Can you believe my baby girl will be three soon!

Who you talkin’ bout?

We have really been enjoying Play Group at our church on Monday mornings. If you are bored and in the area, let me know! We have a craft, snack, and good mommytime! As you can tell from this pic, Preston has not been feeling great. He had a fever for a weekend, and then was puny for a week after that. I loved him being clingy and snuggly, but absolutely hated seeing him so pitiful! I kept him home from MDO that week, and he slept the whole time Kate was there. He is now the proud new owner of 6 new teeth, so I am hoping that is all it was.

Kate and Juliette playing at the park:

We love the Neller’s new jumpy!

Watching Jake play ball:

Celebrating Blake’s 24 years of life. Love that brother of mine!

Entertaining Pres while Daddy is in the store:

We have been loving this warm, January weather! Yay yay yay!

This was right after Christmas, but I havent posted any of them yet…Enjoying our cousins at Nana and Granddaddy’s.

Jaxton’s 1st Birthday at Momma June’s. Preston is an equal animal oppurtunity lover:

Is your mama a llama?

I think we have a huffer on our hands:

Kate was obviously too busy to pose for the camera at this party~

We decided to have an Oreo Picnic one afternoon after school. As I was getting ready to snap a pic, my awesome kid knew to dunk it in the milk without me ever showing him!
