To all those who gave True a hard time about his hair (Brad), he got a haircut tonight. I already miss my little shaggy guy...

I realize I've been a slacker.. but once you haven't posted a picture for a few days.. it is really easy continue not posting! We shall see if I can get back in the habit. Sunday morning, BJ used his free Dunkin' Donuts coupon and got us donuts... Ava hearts pink frosted donuts!

We played outside today and got out the old orange pool... Ava and True both liked splashing around.. I predict many more of these days! In this picture, Ava was singing "Where is Thumbkin?" I love when she sings spontaneously!

True enjoyed playing with his new water toy yesterday!!

Tonight we went over to my brother's house for some cheeseburgers - they were delicious! True climbed on to the bike and was checking it out!

We had True's birthday party today! He enjoyed some cake!

His great grandpa made him this rocking tractor..

His grandma made him a quilt!

Happy Birthday to Truett! We went to the zoo to celebrate! True wasn't all that impressed with the animals.. he just wanted to help push the stroller..

There is an orchid display right now - there were some really pretty ones...

We gave True a cupcake - he didn't really want it at first.. but he warmed up to it!

He started two-fisting it!

We gave him this big bouncy ball.. he loved it! He just chased it around the room.

I can't believe a whole year has gone by. Looking forward to lots more with my True-baby!

No picture... just thinking about how tomorrow will be True's first birthday! When I woke up this morning, I was thinking about how we went to the hospital last year... trying to believe that it has been an entire year since then. Wow! Time really flies... I took a personal day tomorrow and we are heading to the zoo! Hopefully the weather will cooperate and we will have a fun time!

When I was outside today, I found a nest on the ground. Ava and I had just finished looking at a book about different kinds of birds, so I brought her outside to look at it. We looked around and found the cracked eggs that went with it.

I know, I know... it is probably full of germs.. don't worry.. we washed hands and had a bath.. She is germ free again..

We ate at Chick-fil-A yesterday - (this is for you, Amy!). We had to take True's picture by his name!

I got these shoes for Ava. I had some like it when I was little and I thought it was fun to get her some, too! Does anyone else remember these??

True was a big boy today and climbed on the bike all by himself. He was feeling pretty good about himself!

True fell asleep on the couch the other night... he is such a sweetie!

She is so cute.

This was our evening... running around outside! The weather was hot! True wore shorts for the first time, so cute!

He loves this little car. He played with it non-stop all evening. He likes to open the door and climb in. Then he gets back out and walks around it. Repeat.

We also went on a walk and True couldn't quite make it. He finally gave it up as we walked up our street...

My sweet little True - I know, I know, he needs a haircut. I just don't want it to look like a bowl cut again... for now he is rocking the Justin Bieber...

This is not the most flattering picture of Ava, but it was finally warm and not raining, so we played outside!! yay!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Happy Mother's Day to my mom! Love you, mom!

This is Saturday's picture... we planted flowers...

and BJ put a border around the front flower bed...

This is what True looks like after Ava tries to feed him... I've been MIA this week.. it's been a long week.. sigh... 16 more days, 16 more days...

I did start looking at kindergarten things for next year. That makes me happy. Oh, how I can't wait for next year!

Another weekend comes to a close... We had a pretty good day.. even though it rained. again. I'm really over the rain! Let's save some for July when everything dies!

Ava and True read the book together for about 15 seconds.. and I got a picture of it! Whew! True is really cute with books right now, he will open up a book and then start babbling (as if he is reading it.. so CUTE!).. He gets very angry if you try to read him the page and not let him turn the page when he so desires...he is also starting to say "uh-oh" also very cute.

You can see the start of True's screech in this picture.. Ava was trying to turn the page and he was not having it...

Also.. Ava does something very cute right now too. My side of the bed has become her stash for hiding all her favorite things. Currently her tutu is hidden under my nightstand. She had an Easter basket full of things in here earlier.. I also found a sippy cup, my Bible, and her teddy bear stuffed in my pillow.. Seriously.. she is my favorite girl.. I know I'm going to miss these silly things one day!
