random happy....

just wanted to share random little happy bits from the last couple of weeks....we have just been busy working on the house and doing stuff at school. i can't believe that we only have 12 full days left of school! i am so ready to just be at home with my girls :) so on with the happy.....

:: my baby girl getting ready to ride the mower with me...strapped very tightly to my chest in a front pack ;) .... how cute does she look in her protective ear wear!


:: and HUGE happy...our girl is finally drinking out of a straw after weeks of working with her with the honey bear cup! she went straight from nursing to the straw....she looks like such a big girl :)


:: cute little limber legs in tiny little leggings :)





:: magpie looking like she thinks she is such a big girl driving (okay actually just sitting) on her sister's gator ;)


:: our girl and one of her MANY cute little 'i know i'm a stinker but aren't i so cute?' facial expressions...


:: watching my big girl do the itsy-bitsy-spider with my baby girl :)


:: our drive home from the 'city' as the girls say....the beautiful green fields make me feel closer to heaven...


....i'll take being a country mouse over a city mouse anyday ;)


:: my big girls celebrating earth day at school....


:: the AMAZING art my big girls brought home last week from school....i {heart} their art teacher....how can you not smile when you look at that great big can of soup painted by one very artistic rayley beth?


:: our cute little 'portico'....(fancy schmancy word for tiny porch)... my jeffrey has been working on :)




:: .... slowly but surely ;)


:: my baby girl getting all loved-up by my big girls always makes my heart so happy :)

  6. These pics are awesome. I love the green field, too! I'm a country mouse and remind my husband of that all the time even though he thinks he is because he works for John Deere and majored in Agriculture Econ on Virginia Tech....Growing up in middle tennessee trumps all that in being form the country. Your family is precious!!! Can't wait to see the finished product on the house:) hugs...Sarah
