Emalyn- On November 6, 2009 Abbie's birthday

Fell of the couch at grandma Lorna's! Mom didnt know it was broken but decided because I wouldnt stop crying that she would go get it check out! Yep it was broken in two places! Poor thing! Mom felt so bad so now I am in a soft cast for 4-6 weeks and I have to wear this sling that I hate! Im doing better now though! We have a doctors appointment tomorrow and hopefully everything is healing good.

Happy Halloween

Happy Mothers Day!!!!!
Happy Mothers Day to all those great and wonderful mothers!!! Thank you mom for all that you have done for me all of my childhood years and now!!! You are great and I love all that you have taught me over the years!!! Thanks for all the patience you must have had while I was growing up!! You Rock!!! I Love you hope you had a great day!!!!
Mothers day was great for me today!!! It all started yesturday for me because DeReese was so excited about my mothers day present!! He kept asking me if i wanted to open it and I would say yeah sure then he would say no not today and then ten min later he would ask me again! He finally let me do it and I loved it!!! My wonderful children bought me a neclace its a heart with pink gems and a mom with a baby! Abbie was so cute earlythis week I came home from a meeting I had for church. She came running up to me and said mom we bought you a pink necklace! And then when I got it yesturday she said oh mom that is gorgeous! My husband bought me a Wii Fit game and board I have wanted one ever since we have gotten the Wii and didnt in my dreams think he would get it because of the price it was a great surprise! Wow this is a long blog! Anyway and then this morning I got breakfast and he got all the kids bathed and ready for church I actually had time to do my hair (not in a ponytail) and make myself presentable and enjoy it instead of rush! He also made dinner for me tonight and everytime I went to do something he would say sit down relax its mothers day!!! Oh how I wish mothers day was everyday! Thank you DeReese for making this mothers day one I will always remember! Thankyou to my children without them I would not be a mother I love them so much wouldnt change it for the world!!!!! Happy Mothers Day!

Tyson turned 6 on the 15th of April. Boy did he have fun! It lasted for awhole week! First pic of him on the morning of his birthday I told him I would make him anything for his birthday breakfast and he just wanted the same old thing Peanut butter toast! Yummy!! Then we had cake and icecream that night! And had a friend birthday on thursday at McDonalds and had party at my moms house on Friday! Spoiled if you asked me! He had a great birthday and thanks to everyone who was part of it! He was real happy for his skates! He saw them in the van the week earlier and said wow skates are those for my birthday? I not knowing what to say said No its just a box I got from the store I need to throw it away! He never once said anything about it again until we got home that night. He said mom I knew that it wasnt just a box! Oh well the moral of this story hide presents somewhere that they arent going to find them!

EASTER AT THE GOODWIN"S
Dont we look good in our easter clothes!

Look we did it!! Yep those are Pigtails! Our hair is long enough! Im so excited to be able to do up another girls hair! Also we learned and mastered our new trick Crawling!!! Yeah Ema! But now she is into everthing. I love that she is growing up! This is the fun stage in life I think!

DeReese finally took me on a real date!!! We had mom take care of the kids (Thanks mom we owe you one) and we went the rodeo. I have never ever been soI thought it would be fun! And it was pretty fun! We started our night out with dinner at Papa Kelseys love thier subs and then it was off to the rodeo! My favorite part was the bull riding! then we came home watch Marley and me and then actually got a whole nights sleep! Thanks again mom! We had a great time! Hope we can do it again real soon!

I know its been along time since I have blogged! So I want to catch up on some stuff!!!!

It is FINALLY spring! The tulips are out and its warming up! How I love the warm weather! Ema loves it too. She crys when we come in from being outside. Last week she had an ear infection in both ears so I didnt want her to go out and she just cryed and cryed to go out and play. I would take one step outside and she would stop one step inside and she would start up again! I guess we will be spending alot of time outside this summer!

DeReese and Thomas also planned something very special for us on Valentine's Day!! They got all of our kids into the kids bedroom to watch a movie and they made us a candle light dinner it was so good! They made chicken primavera with pasta steamed veggies and strawberry daiquiri. It was so good and we just got to sit there and watch a movie! What a great evening! thanks guys! Sorry no pictures but had to tell you about it anyway!

Abbie and her dad where not only swimming. Abbie wanted to dance in the water! So her dad being the good dad he is, was dancing and singing Someday Our Prince Will Come. How cute!!!!!!

Emalyn's first time swimming and she loved it the water was even alittle cold and she didnt have any problem with it!!
She will make for a great swimmer someday!
