I am behind on some pictures!!

So I've been pretty busy lately with job hunting, being a mom, a wife and a not so good housekeeper! The spring has been busy with weddings, showers and parties of all kinds to fill up our weekends too. We are thankful to have so much to do but that doesn't leave me much time at the computer. Speaking of computer - I need a new one. Ours has been taking FOREVER to just move from one screen to the next and sometimes the screen doesn't even turn on. I want to throw it out the window right now. It's about 7 years old too so when I win the powerball, I will get a new one.

My niece, Avah, had her 2nd dance recital on May 2nd and looked as cute as ever. She is very much the entertainer and good at it. Duke had to be removed from the recital room because he was too noisey and I could still hear him yelling at his dad in the other room. Avah did great during the show.

My first Mother's Day was wonderful. I love being a mom more than anything else. Even when he is crying because he wants me to stop posting on my blog and make funny faces and noises at him. So for Mother's Day, Jack and Duke dressed alike (so cute) and we went to my MIL's for dinner. For Mother's Day we got the grandkids together in the park and took pictures to frame and give to her. I think it turned out great.


We have a momma fox and a baby fox living on the outskirts of our basketball court. They make the strangest noises. Our dogs, of course, are all over it. They banter back and forth. As much as I love the wildlife, I don't doubt that if she got ahold of one of them, she would hurt them so it makes me nervous. I see them hanging out on the court in the morning most days and sometimes in the evening. I don't have the heart to call animal control.


Last weekend we had Danny and Talia's wedding. Jack was a groomsman and I got to take pictures of the guys getting ready. It was a beautiful day for a wedding and a beautiful wedding.

Prunes!

Duke is starting solid food!! We had the little guy so backed up with bananas and rice cereal so we had to switch to prunes and oatmeal. He loves it.
