Thanksgiving

I was horrible at taking pictures this Thanksgiving. I took none at my parents and just a few at Matt's. And this little guy above wouldn't stop for a minute so I could get a picture of his new longall. So I had to settle for some football helmet action. Papa Steele is collecting memorabilia for his man cave and his grandsons and great nephews love wearing these helmets around...G little is all about kicking the football right now and it was mighty comical with his helmet on!

Two Rounds of yummy food, loads of time with family, football games (some good, some definitely bad), the two best parts being with my boys and getting to reflect on all the amazing blessings God has given our little family! Oh and the answered prayer of NO repeat stomach bug this year! Praying for a healthier winter!

Mr. H's Kindergarten Graduation

Little Man and I were able to see Mr. H graduate from kindergarten this week. He was in a class of 7 boys...


Singing some of their chapel worship songs...G was clapping and dancing along...


Getting his certificate...

Picture with his momma... Mr. H picked her dress out so she would be the prettiest momma :)Mr. H is very good with G and we enjoy our weekly Firehouse subs and yogurt together. He's been deemed G's officially peanut butter sniffer...since Mr. H hates peanut butter as much as Little Man doesn't need to eat it.

Yay! Aunt V's Finally Done

Mother's Day Weekend was not only the House of Poo...and I don't mean Winnie for us but a great weekend of celebration...we loved our mothers and grandmothers from afar; which I know they all appreciated! But we also made trips to Columbus to see Aunt V receive her pin and take her oath with all her fellow nursing students and then on Monday she walked in her cap and gown...

Here she is receiving her pin...

With Little Man...

Who didn't last long inside the cermony...and here is mad at his momma for saying no to playing on a dirty golf cart...

With the grandparents...

We are so excited for what the future holds for Aunt V...slightly hoping she makes it to Atlanta...

Mother's Day

Matthew and I are very lucky to have wonderful moms. They have been very supportive, encouraging, Godly women and over the past 14 months have been wonderful as we have entered our own journey of parenthood. And God has provided even more blessings with all the other wonderful Moms who are apart of our lives...grandmas, aunts, friends...so many that I can't begin to name them all. I hope each of you had a wonderful Mother's Day!

Mother's Day weekend was an eventful weekend for our little family. Saturday we headed to the Columbus/Phenix City area to spend time with my Mom and Grandmother. It was nice to get to spend some quiet relaxing time with both of them. And to let Gavin spend some time with his Great-Grandmother.
And of course, his Granddad was there to spoil him...with trying to give him a cookie...and walking him around outside...

Sunday we celebrate with Matt's family. It was a little more active than our Saturday celebration...Gavin was able to meet and play with a few of his cousins! And of course some time with his Great MaMa..and her famous sleepy pants! She can get any baby to sleep!

My two cool guys...my cup over flows!

Happy Birthday!

May is the month of our Mom's....with Mother's Day and their birthdays just a day apart...its a month long celebration! We both are blessed to have wonderful Moms...and I hope they both have enjoyed their birthdays! We love you!
