Trace and Logan

Coolest man at the pool

We had a fun weekend. Saturday night Kristen came over and we went to movies in the park. The fun started at 5... the movie started at 8... and we left at 8:30... Trace was so tired and wouldn't settle down afraid he may actually fall asleep. So we called it a night and headed home but it was fun to get out and enjoy some sunshine.

Sunday evening we went to try out the pool... Trace didn't care too much for it.. the water is still pretty cold... But he at least got his feet a little wet.

getting a raisin after begging Daddy for food. Sometimes he is worse than the yorkie. If he even thinks you are eating, he wants some.

playing fox with Tilly


here! fetch!


We tried to get out for a bit on Saturday. We went over to Murfreesboro to see Aunt Kristen for a bit. We went to her picnic but Trace is still a bit little to do all of the bouncy things. So John and I left to go over to an outdoor mall nearby. Well, we made it into one store before the bottom dropped out. We went to one more store and decided to just go back home. At least we were out for an hour or so.

Happy Mothers Day...

Ready to roll....
My little fireman blowing kisses to DADDY....
We were just hanging out and I looked over to find this... my studious firefighter / intramural legend... A man of many talents... the muscle shirt was too cute to resist! He got this hat at school when the fire truck came... he loves to put it on and walk around the house.


Bananas!!!! Yum



Mother's Day Mimosas!!!!!!




My pretty flowers from my sweetie.

Trace helping out his big sister with a snack


I had a GREAT mothers day weekend. First of all THE SUN CAME OUT in what felt like months. I think it rained for 10 days straight around here and I was in a real estate class all week with a four hour exam on Friday (it didn't take me four hours but that's what they gave you to take it!) We have mentioned before that Trace likes to catch up on sleep on the weekends.... Well I guess last week with Mom in town and then school all week he was really tired. He went to bed at 8:00 Friday night (after staying up late to play with Logan) and woke up at 10:30 on Saturday morning. Drank some milk, ate breakfast, played a little and couldn't take it anymore at 12:00 Noon... he went down for a nap... He slept till 3:00 when I woke him up to get him ready to go to dinner.


Dinner was awesome. John took Trace and I to a new place in Cool Springs "the Cajun Steamer". It is Louisiana style seafood at its best. We got the Cajun steamer for two! It was awesome with crawfish, huge shrimp, raw oysters and crab legs. It was tasty! It was a beautiful evening, the weather was perfect. 75, nice breeze, clear skies... we sat out on the patio and ate a great meal. John got me flowers and a Gigi's cupcake that we shared. : ) Sunday Trace again slept till 10:00 after going to bed at 7:00 Saturday night. John made me an omelet with mimosa's (while our child slept... crazy I know... ) Then we all went for a nice long walk. We came back and enjoyed the afternoon with some golf and ended the evening with Sushi! It was just a fantastic weekend with my two favorite boys! I love you baby Trace. You make me proud to be a mommy!




PS... I love my mommy... she is a great mother and a fantastic Grandmother! It is so much fun to see how much she loves me and my baby too!

And a Happy Mothers day to all of you mothers out there... especially my sister Michelle who is a fantastic Mother!!!!.... also to Terry and Trista!

Grandma and Grandpa Ed came up to spend the weekend with us. Saturday we went shopping in Murfreesboro with Aunt Kristen then came back home. Grandma, Grandpa Ed and Aunt Kristen kept Trace while John and I went to our friend Mark & Laura's for a corn hole tournament. We came in second... :( Sunday we all went to lunch and then everyone left so we all took a nap! That's what you do on a rainy Sunday afternoon, right?
Hope you all had a great weekend!
