My Cowboy!

Yesterday Rich had tons of work to do, since he has been traveling so much lately, so Carter and I headed to the Fort Worth Livestock Show and Rodeo. This was after we all went to church and then went out to eat. It was such a beautiful day. I really enjoyed spending the day with him....oh to be 4 again.

In this picture, he was soooo proud of himself because he had "braved" the bulls. However he still wasn't comfortable enough to stand in the middle. Yesterday we bought him a cowboy hat. He wanted to be like the other "Cowboys". Today, when I told him to go upstairs and get dressed for swim lessons, this is how he dressed himself. The shirt says "A bad day hunting with Dad beats a good day shopping with Mom".

The rodeo...
Happy, happy boy!
And last, but not least, I have to post a picture of my "little booger".

Have a wonderful week!

So peaceful....
Carter at Karate class. He loves it! I was a little skeptical at first, but I think it is great. They practice "stranger danger", in order to get a stripe on his belt he must recite address, phone # and know how to call 911. It is also great "self-discipline". They are VERY strict and even have time out for not following directions. For example, if the directions are to push away from the stranger (they practice on the teachers) and then run to line 1, but they run to line 2...then you get time out (for like a minute) for not following directions. Teaches them to really listen...I never knew Carter could stand so still...ha ha!

I can't wait to show Carter this picture when he is older. This is he and his cousin, Sydney. Notice he is driving a Barbie jeep!

I went to many parties with both of these guys in college...ha ha. It is so funny to see them both with babies. That is Don and Edward on the left.
Have a wonderful weekend. Rich will be catching up on work stuff all night tonight and then tomorrow we are going to the farm. Don and his family leave on Monday to head back to London.

Mr. Gigglebox!

We've come a long way BABY!

I was looking at old pictures the other day and could not believe how tiny Landon really was when he was born. He still has a ways to go until he catches up, but man has he grown! Take a look at then....



Now (3 1/2 months later)...

Edward and Landon

I don't have time to post, but I wanted to get some pictures up of Landon and Edward. Rich's cousin, Don, and his family are in from London. I will have more pics later, but here are some we took this week. I am also working on pics from Lindsey's wedding that will hopefully be posted tomorrow with a longer update. Of course, I have to also add one of Carter and "Old McDonald"...which is what Carter calls Uncle Donald (who, by the way, owns a farm...how fitting).

I love these kids!

I am really starting to get used to staying home and am enjoying being a Mom so much! Landon is really starting to develop a personality and Carter is just a bundle of energy who makes me laugh all day long. He has such a strong personality and is so creative that it really keeps me on my toes. I can't wait to see what he is going to be when he grows up. This past week, Rich was in Vegas on business, so we went to Bullard for a few days. We went to see my cousin Melissa and her family. Molly is living with them now, so Carter was so excited to see Molly. Here are some pictures from our visit.

Sorry Dad, but I had to put this picture. This is what happens when you put Papa in a lazy boy with a baby.

This is my boys all dressed and ready for the game yesterday. It hurt my heart when they lost but that is okay...they had a great season!

Here is my cousin Melissa with Landon.
Here are the cousins...Carter, Landon, Nicholas and Carson. They play so good together!
Reunited again...Carter and Molly.
This weekend Lindsey gets married. I will definitely have pictures next week of Carter in his tux! I am so happy for Lindsey and can't wait for this weekend!
