Pop's John Deere Tractor

Alex and Tucker LOVE to go to my mom and dad's house to play

They can't wait to get on the tractor !

( Oh..this is Tucker's favorite outfit. He picks this out often for he and Alex to wear . The blue shorts and long sleeved shirt with a truck on it. )

They talk about it day and night

We love our PoP!!

Beach Babies

We went to the beach last week and the boys loved it!!!





They played for hours in the sand









They loved the waves. The bigger the better!!

Alex was so excited he could hardly stand it. He ran up and down the beach for miles our last day.

Tucker is a little fish. He has no fear.

Alex is telling us to take him back to the water

I love my beach babies!!!

Mother's day 2009

They were so sweet bringing my gifts to me on Sunday morning.

I'm the luckiest mother in the world!!

First Haircut

On May 8th we took Alex and Tucker for their first haircut!

Tucker was hesitant but tolerated the cut just fine...




Alex on the otherhand......





Was a little dramatic!!

Especially when she brushed his hair out as big as it could get

Weekend Getaway to New Orleans

We took a quick trip to New Orleans this weekend for a visit to the aquarium, zoo and golf tournement.

I have not been back to New Orleans in several years. It was fun to stroll the streets again.

Alex was feeling the vibe

Tucker was asking.... " where are we again?"

Nana and Pop went with us.

The aquarium was fun. They had beautiful coral and fish

The boys loved the frog exhibit

This was the first night we have stayed in a hotel room with the boys. It was quite an experience to have them in a confined space overnight. We did not leave rested the next morning.

The luggage cart was a big hit.

Sunday we headed to the zoo. We loved it. It was a beautiful day and the boys had a great time.

Notice Tucker leaning forward and taking everything in. He was this way the entire day.

They got to pet a snake and a lizard. The zoo keepers had to remind Alex not to squeeze the lizard. He got a little excited!

Alex and Tucker love pools of water and fountains. We stopped at every one.

Alex loved the carousel. He cried when the ride was over. He did not want me to hold on to him while it was going either. He rode like a big boy.

We had a great weekend.

It was a quiet ride home....
