One quiet February morning three years ago. . .

We met our baby Zacky for the very first time. It was a perfect day to fall in love.





He started out so tiny and sweet, but he grew.

And got sweeter.

And funnier.

Now he's such a big kid, and a constant source of entertainment.

He loves:
Lightning McQueen! (Before he could say much else, we knew exactly what he meant when he said "Nakeen Nakeena!" We often heard that about 6 times each prayer.)

Swimming


Cadence and Carlie


Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and is not afraid to request the theme song during music time in nursery. (When he's watching, there's not much you can do to get his attention.)

Disneyland

Babies, especially his new twin cousins

Our favorite Zacky quotes:
"Oh brother"
"Hey, what's the big idea?"
"Who bout I have one more treat?"
and of course, "I love you"


Crazy how you learn a whole new love when you become a parent. We are so glad Zack is ours!
Happy 3rd Birthday Zacky!

Do you even remember me?

I'm super far behind on my blog, so this should be interesting.  Will I stick with it?  Probably. . . or not.  But I hope because I have too much to be thankful for to keep it all to myself.  So, this is an update since last OCTOBER when I last posted an entry here.  No picture for now.  No time! About us as of late-ish. . .    JJ-  He's 35 and he goes to work everyday.  He has crappy knees.  But he is a gem.  He's a hard worker and a marvelous dad. He moved us into a new house that we love in April.  We are still close to our old neighborhood and get to see old friends a lot.  It's great.   April-  That's me.  I  am a headless chicken.  But not right now because I have two kids napping, one at a friend's house, and one at school.  That is why I am blogging!  I am taking classes online to earn my elementary ed degree so I can start a preschool next fall.  I'm pretty excited about that.  Pretty awesome.  I hate math and I'm not good at it.  I'm sort

Cooper is here!!!

And never mind that he is sitting up on my lap playing with a chew toy. He's just such a fun little boy that all my free time goes to playing with him (and not blogging)! Since he is nearly four months old and I haven't had a single post about him, this entire entry is dedicated to our favorite baby in the world. Cooper's Creed I will only have blowouts when it's convenient for mom, like when she's blogging. I will sleep really well through the night, but only after I do one or two fakeouts. I will keep you guessing about my eye color for at least 3 and 3/4 months. I will grow like a weed. I will be the size of a nine month old when I'm three months old. I will not barf too much. I will give a big adorable smile to anyone who looks in my direction. I may scream at the top of my lungs if I feel that someone should be looking at me, but as soon as I get some attention, I will coo and kick my feet. I will be a snuggle bug. Instead of laughing I will hold my brea
