The kids.....recently.

Sometimes I get to thinking about how wonderful children are and the many blessing they bring into our lives. I feel so fortunate to be able to spend so much time with them in these precious years. Sure, there are times I have had it up to here ^ with the crying and fussing, and dirty diapers, and cleaning the same mess over and over and over, and the fits. But, there are also the many special moments when I get to watch them learn to talk, walk, and figure out this crazy world. These are the times that allow you to forget about the hard parts of being a parent (esp. stay at home moms) and remember that children are such a blessing and remind us that everyone starts out innocent and good. These are the times that I wish they would stay little forever, and never have to experience hurt. I wanted to write all this as a reminder to myself, to treasure this time...it won't be here forever!Here is Landon, 5 months old....just being happy!

Jason's big 3-1 !!

Yes, that's right folks, my hubby is officially in his thirties. I tend to enjoy the fact that he is older than me (I will not state exactly HOW much older he is) because it keeps me feeling young. I mean, at least I can always say I am the young one in the relationship...it allows me to get away with things! haha!
Jason mentioned to me yesterday (his actual b-day) that he looked at himself in the mirror and realized he is actually looking younger with age! haha! He may be getting older, but he isn't letting that change his perspective nor his sense of humor!As you can see Jaedyn is serious about helping Jason open his presents!
So, I took Jason out to one of our favorite places for special occasions, Red Prime. It's an awesome atmosphere and we're always given a private booth and extremely delicious food.

Jason with his birthday creme brulee. It was fabulous!
And finally to end the evening, he's modeling for me...not bad for a guy over 30! =) I'm lucky to have such a great husband and wonderful dad to my kids! Happy Birthday sweetie!
