New Year..2017

Well I can not believe it is already February of 2017! Where has the time gone? I am not doing that good keeping up with my blog. I need to make it a priority for at least once a week. So much has happened since my last post. We had Christmas and then our family from Virginia Beach came out after Christmas thru New Years! It was lot of fun and the kids had a blast being together! January was a very busy month with Austen's birthday! I still can not believe my sweet boy turned 7. I still remember when he born! I wanted to share some pictures from his birthday!

Happy 6th Birthday to Austen!!

How could my little boy be 6?!?! When did this happen? I sure didn't let it happen. I am so thankful for him and I honestly don't know what I would do without him. He brings so much happiness and love to our lives. It seems like just yesterday I was at my last day at work and then contractions started.  Austen is a true blessing and he has brought so much more to my life than he will ever know especially after everything we have been thru. I love you Austen Michael!!! Thank you for making Daddy and I so proud!

Life...

Boy life has been crazy lately.  I wanted to update on how Austen is doing with kindergarten. He loves every minute of it. He is learning so much and just loves going. He loves coming home and telling us all he learned. He came home yesterday telling us all about him learning syllables and knowing how to find how many syllables in a name. He lights up every time he talks about school! I am so thankful for his teacher and all she does for him! She also sends pictures home which I love!

Happy Birthday to my 5 year old!!!

It feels like just yesterday that this little peanut was laying on me. I could cry when I think about how fast the past 5 years has gone and all we have been through. If I think about it too much, Austen should have a little 8 month old brother here to help him celebrate. He was cheated out on that and I will never forget that. He is the best brother to Addison and I know he would have been the BEST big brother to Jayden. Austen was such a miracle and I am forever thankful that he is my son. He is the sweetest little boy who always tells me he loves me just when I need to hear it. He cuddles me at all the right moments, which is EVERY moment and he is just a mama's boy. How can this sweet little boy be 5 years old!?!? I honestly didn't think this day would come as quickly as it did. I remember just snuggling him as a newborn and here he is 5 years old. I love you so much Austen Michael and wish you the best 5 year birthday ever! I love you more than you will ever know!

Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday I was lucky enough to go with Austen's school to the Pumpkin Patch. I had such a great time. Austen loved every part of it including seeing his best buddy Mason there. They followed each other everywhere. It was adorable!!! I am thankful that I am able to attend these field trips with my kids. I will always remember these times with my kids and I really hope they remember them as well! 💜
