Wyatt's first day of school was bitter-sweet. I can't believe my baby boy is growing up. He loves school, and I am thankful that Mrs. Proctor is there to provide the structure and nurturing that he needs.

View From My Porch

The view from my front porch. Some people may see this as a run-down building, but I have always found it beautiful!

T-Ball

This is Wyatt's first year playing T-Ball. His team is called the Jays and his daddy comes and helps with the team whenever he is off work. He is growing up so fast!

Spencer's Birthday

We love that both sides of our family are able to get together for birthdays! Spencer's big gift from us was a swingset, but he loved ever present he got. The guitar that his Nana got him has been a big hit with the boys (not so much for us after hearing the same songs over and over and over....)

A New Swingset

How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!

Spencer got a new swingset for his second birthday and the boys love playing on it! Spencer wants to copy everything Wyatt does...which is something that I guess little brothers do.

Connections

North Carolina has been hit hard with tornadoes this year. While watching the news coverage, Wyatt asked me if all the houses on tv were blown down by the "twisters". I told him that they were. He thought about that for a minute, looked at me, and then asked me if the houses were made out of straw or sticks...

So Much for Resolutions...

Well I guess even a New Year's resolution wasn't enough to keep me on the ball with this blog....I guess I will pick up where I left off...

The boys are getting so big. Wyatt has recently picked up on the new habit to use his index finger and middle finger to push down on his eyebrows to make them "furrow" when he is angry...it is hilarious when he does it, and I have no idea where he picked up this new skill.

Spencer is talking more and more each day. He will be having plastic surgery on July 5th to remove the birthmark on his forehead as a preventitive measure against the possibility of future melanoma. He has also been battling reacurring respritory infections and will be visiting the ear/nose/throat doc on May 4th.
