Does this thing BITE???

Bo found a little turtle in the backyard and instantly they were friends

Potty Training

Our goal for the summer was to get Bo potty trained. I have to say, it was not as hard as I thought it would be. We were very fortunate. It took one complete day of staying indoors and watching lots of cartoons. Now, we are fully trained!!! No more diapers....how nice.

I wanna be a Cowboy Baby!!!

I decided I wanted to be just like daddy and wear his cowboy hat and drive his truck. I think I look pretty cool, what do you think?

Fishing with Pop

My mom and dad bought Bo his first fishing pole this summer. We took Bo out in the boat to see how he would like fishing....well, he loves it! Pop and Bo had such a good time. Now every time we go out in the boat, Bo can't wait to find a fishing spot.

Friends for Keeps

They're in this thing for the long haul now.....Bo and Lillee Grace just killed their first insect together. They were however, very innocent about it. It started off as, "Look, there is a little caterpillar" Then it changed to "let's get him" Then the final....."oh no! I think he's sleeping" Yes Bo and Lillee he sure is sleeping and will be for a long time. The poor caterpillar didn't have a chance. They didn't mean to kill him, they were just intrigued and their curiosity got the best of them.

Ok...here is the funniest story of the day....we (Jennifer, Lille Grace, Bo, Baxter and myself) were all outside playing in the treehouse. When we decided to come inside Bo and Lille Grace ran ahead and went into the house shutting and LOCKING the door behing them! Jennifer, Baxter and I were out on the deck while Bo and Lillee Grace ran to Bo's new room to see his bed. Ok, they are only 2 and 3 years old, already locking their parents outside so they can be alone with each other in the bedroom....this can't be a good sign of things to come. So after a few long minutes of knocking loudly on the door, the two come toddling around the corner and seem to be surprised that we are standing outside looking in at them. What a wild afternoon! Like I said, Lillee and Bo are in this for a long time!!!!!!

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone! We had a fantastic Easter and hope everyone else did as well. Bo was the most handsome little boy ever today. The weather was just right for his outfit...35 degrees this morning when we made our trek to church at 8:30. A very cold Easter indeed. Bo was delighted with his goodies from the the big easter bunny himself. He left Bo two books and lots of candy! After church we played around in the yard for as long as we could stand the cold and then it was inside for everyone to take naps. Bo is now sleeping in his big boy room. (yes, I will make this a separate blog when I get the pictures) After a long nap, I attempted to make a bunny cake. It turned out rather cute I guess, but I will have many years to improve upon this cake. We went to mom and dad's for dinner where Ryan's family joined us. The food was delicious.....thanks to all who prepared! After dinner we had an easter egg hunt in the open green space. Colton and Bo had a blast and Teagan joined in on the fun. What a fun exhausting day! We have so much to be thankful for today. We are truly blessed.....Christ has risen indeed!

Blog Issues!

I am having severe blogging issues. Thanks to blog help on this wonderful site, I might be back up and running! This will be a trial run tonight. I won't type much b/c last time I typed 2 pages worth only to have it lost in cyber-space. Enjoy the cute pic of Bo with his St. Patty's Day Shirt. He loved it!
