Happy Daddy's Day!!!

10 YEARS...

Two colleges, two moves (with only two, that's pretty good!), one VERY active Milby, two HANDSOME lil boys, lots of laughs, a few cries,  and MANY football games later... we celebrated 10 years together just way we like it... on the water!!! The four of us headed to a cabin on the lake for the weekend, where we made new memories, talked about old ones and played in the water- perfection! (ok maybe not perfection... but it's the way we like it)

I LOVE these guys!!!

I'm telling you a Love for the Beach starts early!!!

Hayden and Daddy got new fishing poles, just for the trip... off they trotted!

One Happy Momma!!!

My Super Troopers... love our runs!

Brotherly Love!

Dylan's Baby Dedication at Church... super special day!

These are the moments I hope I never forget!

Hayden was in Heaven... we still talk about getting to touch "sticky" starfish!

Hayden loved seeing Ms. Amy's flippers!

And Mr. Greg showed H some "sticky" star fish!

The "diver" behind us are our new friends, Amy... we were lucky to get a behind-the-scenes day!

Lunch in the park for Mommy's Day

When a weekend is filled with Hayden's class party for the Mommy's, a trip to the aquarium for a "behind the scenes" tour, Dylan being dedicated at church and home-made gifts, that's the equation for One Happy Momma!!! There are days when my head hits the pillow I honestly don't remember falling asleep, then there are days and weekends like this one (and many more) that I truly thank God for giving me such a blessed life!

Oh Dylan...

Dylan moves to the TUB and goes on his first "date"... H gets his "toddler" bed upgrade

Got my "helper" right beside me...

Which makes D smile THIS big!!!

 

Hayden is super excited about his new sleeping quarters... (mommy gets worried!)

We of course have to wear our "Boogie Dance" socks while helping daddy with the tools!

Not sure if Momma or Hayden was more excited about his new bedding!

Snug as a bug in a rug!

How do you resist this smile?

I always joke that I take FOREVER to move the boys to their next "phase" and so I finally let D jump from bathing in our fabulous sink to the bathroom! H loves it because he gets to help me now! We have lots of laughs. And speaking of laughs... this video is priceless! We finally broke down and put H's toddler rails on his bed (yes he's been in his crib this long)- but with no "escape" attempts, we held on for as long as we could, but it was time and he is soooo excited! We've had a few "out of the bedroom" issues, but for the most part, he has been a trooper! 

And Dylan finally joined Hayden and I for our special "date", to the park to play, feed the ducks, and climb some rocks, and off to Chick-fil-A for lunch. These guys stole the show, literally, we had half the restaurant laughing and smiling at us-well them- but with these smiles and H INHALING his ice cream, there's not much chance at ignoring us!

They're growing up too fast!

Easter Fun...

This year we decided to "paint" Easter Eggs... it was sooo much fun!

Bunny Glasses making painting much more fun!

Hayden couldn't wait to get home from church to see what the Easter Bunny left on the front porch!

(please excuse my fancy "mud" shoes... I did have on super cute boots!)

These smiles are the BEST!

YUM YUM

 

Hayden was super excited about his Preschool Class Easter Egg Hunt as well... by this time, he was a PRO!

Orchestrating eleven 2-3 year old's for a photo was a challenge... this was the best we got!

Hayden's BFF Asher!

And his AWESOME teachers!
