My Blue Eyed Boy

About a year ago we were surprised (two weeks early) with this little angel we have gotten to know as Robb. When we were little, old people always said time goes by so fast. Well clearly now I am one of those old people. This year has gone by in snap. In a short time, we have gotten to see Robb grow from a wiggly baby to a toddler with such a fun and big personality. He loves to be around people, loves to crawl/climb, loves to laugh, loves his big brother.

What a blessing Robb has been in our lives. I am looking forward to the years ahead...I just wish I knew how to slow them down!!

Disney

Will had a business meeting in Anaheim, soooo we took Trey to Disneyland for his 3rd birthday. What a time we had. It was one exciting thing after another. It was not too crowded so we were able to ride all the rides we wanted to a few times a piece. We had an unbelievable time. We all missed Robb, but whenever I saw a mom changing diapers and giving bottles it was nice to think of him back in Memphis playing with cousins, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. Thanks to all who helped at home:)

Some favorites of the trip....

• Favorite Character: Lightening McQueen. When we saw him in the parade Will had to grab Trey as he tried to race into the street to see him.

• Favorite Ride: Mickey's Fun Wheel, Pirates of the Caribbean, and the Tea Cups.

• Favorite Night Life: Dancing in Downtown Disney. There were musicians and bands playing everywhere which meant dancing for Trey.

• Favorite Favorite Favorite: Spending time with each other. What a special time we had!!!!

Mother's Day

Momma, thank you for being a great role model, listener, mother, friend, and grandmother.

Thank you, Tonya, for raising Will. He is a wonderful man, loved immensely by me and the boys. They are lucky to have you as a grandmother, and I am to have you as my mother in law.

Birthday Boy

Will and I were blessed three years ago with our wonderful baby boy, Trey.

It has been such a thrill watching him grow from squirmy infant to the energetic boy he is today.

I love you, Trey Bear!!

Zoo Season

One of my favorite activities to do with the boys is going to the zoo. Fresh air, picnics, running around, strolling, and of course the animals. We are there at least once a week when the weather is nice. On our recent trip we spent a good amount of our time in the Northwest Passage(sea lions, polar bears, eagles, and so on). Trey and Robb had so much fun playing in the canoe.

And Trey loved watching the sea lions through the circle, glass window that jets into the sea lions pool. He crawled around inside while I fed Robb his bottle. He loved it until right after I got this picture a sea lion dive bombed the window. Trey jumped from there into my arms. We were at the zoo about a week later, and Trey wants nothing to do with sitting on that glass. I think we may just watch from a distance for a bit.

Robb really does do other things besides eat. I will be better about posting some of his other activities. But he is really cracking us up with the amount and kinds of food he will eat. It has almost gotten to be a game, "Let's see if Robb will eat this." It reminds me of Mikey in the Life cereal commercial from when I was little (he likes it, he likes it). Well so far Robb likes it all!!

Good Friends

Since Trey's 3rd birthday is coming up this weekend, I have been looking through pictures for his school birthday poster. We have made countless, wonderful memories in just a few short years. I will post after Trey's birthday with details from my sweet boy. But I had to put these pictures up. When I look at these pictures next to each other it makes me smile...the kind of smile that makes you tear up too. Happy 3rd Birthday T-Mac, Whitty, and The Thrill!!!!
