My Sleepy Ballerina!




Riley played so hard after ballet this weak that has wore out the feet in her tights before passing out on the couch.

Jaxson- Fun Day
















Today was Fun Day at Jaxson's school. The kids were partnered up and got to go to different stations (moonwalks, tattoos, sno-cones, etc.). Jaxson had a blast with his friends. Richie and I went up to the school and watched them. We are blessed to be able to be there on Jaxson's special days.

Today is Crazy Hair Day at Jaxson's school. I spiked his hair (the best I could), then sprayed it purple and black. He was super excited.

Mother's Day Gift from Jaxson





























Mother's Day 2009







Mother's Day has been great so far. I got up and Jaxson and I went for donuts and Starbucks. We took my mom a rose and some Starbucks to start her day off right too. Jaxson also gave me a necklace he made for me at school. VERY SPECIAL!




After getting ready, the kids and I went to lunch at Barcenas with my parents. YUMMY! Richie didn't go, he had to work. After lunch, mom offered to take the kids for a couple hours. What a great mother's day gift! So I am enjoying some "me time".

1st Day at Our Pool
















On Saturday, May 9th, Richie and I took Jaxson and Riley to our Westover Park Pool. They had a blast testing out their new skills from swimming lessons. I look forward to a long summer of swimming with my 2 lil fish.
