Cheese Stick Anyone...

This past Tuesday my amazing Mom bailed us out again and babysat Jensen! Poor thing, she had just come off a 12 hour graveyard but said yes to helping us out besides being so tired.
I had packed some cereal, a PB&J sandwich and some mac & cheese (already made).

My Mom decided to cook up some mozzarella sticks and was planning to share with Jens. He had a different idea... he wasn't going to have it, he didn't even "wike" them. When she insisted he just try one he looked at her and said "shhhh can you hear that? It says DON'T EAT ME" hahaha
That was all it took... Grandma was sold, today Jensen was not going to try a mozzarella stick!

Tooth Fairy

I'm a bad, bad, bad MOM!

Jaden lost a tooth 3 days ago and the tooth fairy forgot to come. I think once they stop believing, fun of being a tooth fairy just... disappears! OK, so that just made me feel better :) After I uhh, I mean... the tooth fairy... forgot AGAIN (2nd night in a row) little Jack came to me. He had $2 in his hand and said "Mom, the tooth fairy forgot Jaden again. I'm just going to give him my $2 ok?" Talk about mixed emotions... I was so mad at myself yet so proud of Jack!

Valentines Day with the FOUR that I LOVE!!!

I am the luckiest Girl in the world!

I am blessed with not ONE, Not TWO but FOUR Valentines!!! The boys wore their Valentine colors with pride!

This year they each got a Pass of all Passes...

if you don't know what that is, just be excited for them!!!

For Ben, I started a new tradition 14 DAYS OF LOVE!

Every day from Feb 1st to Valentines I left him a little surprise about love.

Not only did he like BUT the boys couldn't wait for each day's surprise!

The last day was I gave him his BIG gift, it was a SPOTTING SCOPE and TRIPOD

(I'm so dumb, I didn't take a picture of it!)

Ben and the Boys weren't the only ones spoiled...

I also was too!

Ben gave me this ring on Saturday night, I was so excited I made him take me straight to my Parents to show them. On Valentines morning I knew I had already been super spoiled and considering Benj isn't the BEST at surprising me (nor I am him) I expected NOTHING!

Well, I was dead wrong! I woke up to the boys saying "Mom did you see your Valentines?"

I got more... and not only that, he did a little copy of our "14 days of love" too!

Jackee Boy

On January 13th our little guy turned 7.

He has been such a joy in our lives and continues to smother us in his hugs and kisses!

I swear he'd give you the skin off his own body if he thought you needed it more then he did.

We sure love you Jackee

A DECADE.....

Is it really possible that TEN years have come and gone?
My baby is BIG! I mean, 9lbs 8oz was BIG then but NOW, 108lbs...
I am so thankful for this little/big guy! He keeps me on my toes ALL THE TIME and he back talks A LOT but... I will love him forever and like him for always. As long as I'm living my baby he'll be!
