Mother's Day

Getting a photo of me with all three kids is nearly impossible, but I try every year on mother's day.  These are this years best shots.  Someone almost always has their eyes closed, we had a photo bombing dog and Jacob kept covering his face because I guess he hates having his photo taken, or maybe he just likes to be stubborn :)

Mother's Day

I took some mother's day photos of my kids in the wildflowers.  These flowers bloom every year around mother's day, it's perfect!

I told Kenneth all I wanted for mother's day was a photo of me and my kids.  I got that, I also got showered with lots of love and lots of handmade cards with drawings of flowers and hearts.  It was Perfect!  Maybe next year I will ask for a photo with everyone looking and smiling...and no doggie photo bombs or binoculars on the little science nerd!

And here is a picture of my mommy with my babies because I love it, and a picture of Jacob...because he is adorable!

Mother's day and bats

I had a really wonderful mother's day!  Andrew made a book about me at school, he drew my picture on the front and wrote about me on the inside, and he was so excited to give it to me...I teared up a bit.  They went to the store and picked out the Disney movie "Hercules" for me and Emily got some new hair clips and said I could have half of them :)  Then we had dinner in the back yard and played some baseball and Emily and I fell asleep watching my new movie, it was perfect!

There are a couple of bat houses here in town.  I hate bats.  I have lived here for almost 13 years and have avoided going to see the bats that whole time.  BUT, Andrew and Emily wanted to see them so we went last week, then we went again last night (it's amazing the things you will do for your kids!)  And I have to admit is is actually pretty cool.  The kids really love watching them fly!  They fly out at dusk, and there are THOUSANDS of them, two huge house full and then more fly out of the woods behind the houses.
