Ranger Boys

I love having boys. I have come to the conclusion that my body makes boys, and if we have more children in the future, theyll all be boys. :) I LOVE it. I love the trains, the buzz and woody toys (thanks aunt marla!), and i love the baseball. Nathan is hoping that Owen is left-handed so he can be a baseball lefty. Im thinking soccer for O, but whatever he wants to do is fine!

Caleb is in the 97th percentile for height, so who knows what he'll be doing! He's very active, but hes much more of a mommy's boy than Owen. He will sit in my lap and hang out for an hour, which Owen will only do with daddy.

Both boys love to watch the Rangers and Owen can notice a TEXAS shirt or hat from across the room. Here is a quick pic of the boys hanging out on the couch, watching baseball.



Nathan is going to attempt to take Owen to a minor league baseball game sometime in the next month. I'll let ya know how that goes!

Birthday Goodness

I have made such incredible friends here in Austin. Ive never had such a wonderful community where I can be myself and be loved unconditionally. Praise God for Providence church and the other awesome people in Austin! Here are a few pictures from my birthday dinner at the Hula Hut, my favorite!

The Joys

I have the best kids in the world. Just sayin. I love them both so much. What a joy they bring into my life! Here is a picture of Owen and Daddy playing "bunny rabbit." Owen gets under the laundry basket and pretends hes a bunny, and Daddy feeds him goldfish. Hilarious.




Today was Owens 3rd day of school, and it was community helper day. He wore a firemans hat.. isnt he precious?!

Trying a Tri

This last weekend I completed my first triathlon, the 2011 Danskin Tri. It was so much fun! I did quite a bit better than I thought I would do, though I rolled my ankle at the beginning of the run. I havent decided if Ill be a die-hard tri competitor, but I definitely plan on doing a few more this year! Some friends are even trying to talk me into doing a half marathon.. ugh. We'll see! Here are a few pics of the event. My neighbor, Megan, is the lovely lady with me who convinced me to do it!

School

Owen went to his first day of preschool yesterday. Its not really preK, it's Monday/Wednesday from 9 to 1. I love the teacher and the church where it is located. Owen was painting when I left and coloring when I came back. He didnt cry or fuss at all and seemed like he really enjoyed it! He told me that he played with a big bird puzzle, a blue car, colored a rainbow, and went down a slide on the playground. Thats a great day for a 2 year old, right?! :) Here is his first day of school pic-

Birthday Boy

My baby is 1. SO weird. He is absolutely precious, such a wonderful little boy! He is laid back (unless he is teething) and is such a mommys boy. He is already saying all done, night night, titus, daddy, bye bye, hi, and thank you. He is practically running around the house and likes to do anything big brother does. I love him with all of my heart. Here are a few pics from the festivities.
