#hartzeveryday2014 Week 13

Day 84: We took 4 boys to the park. Wild and Crazy!

Day 85: I had my team over for dinner. We laughed so hard! ED came by too:)

Day 86: He is all smiles in the picture, but I had to pick him up early from school with a fever. Another ear infection:(

Day 87: Jackson loves going to the chiropractor and hearing all the "popcorn" in his back. My back went out, and I was really needing to go too!

Day 88: Enjoying the beautiful weather!
I love Saturdays and sunshine with my little family!

Day 89: Someone was loving the bubbles in the nursery at Church today.

Day 90: Dentist appointments...not my favorite afternoon activity!

Frozen

Saturday night at my school PTO hosted a movie night. Before the movie started there was food, a silent auction, and the kids played.

Jackson raced and played with some of my students. He thought he was so cool!

Lincoln loved exploring and eating the grass. Jackson couldn't wait for the movie to start. He ate a whole box of Crunch balls and popcorn during the movie, whoops!

Lincoln fell asleep on me, and we all enjoyed the movie together. It was my first time to see Frozen, and now I get why everyone is talking about it! 

I can't wait to have my big boy at school with me next year!

Baby Dedication

Last Sunday was Baby Dedication at our Church. We dedicated Lincoln to the Lord in front of our faith family.

We snapped a few pictures of him before we went to Church.

LOVE this boy to pieces!

We are so blessed!

Pastor David reminded us of the important calling we have in our children's lives. 

They played a video of the prayer we had recorded for our children. It was sweet and made the dedication more personal.

Lincoln was a bit fussy on stage, but found Jacob next to him and was consoling him. They go to daycare together. So cute!

We are so thankful for our boys and pray that both of them come to know the Lord as their personal Lord and Savior, live boldly for Him, and use their talents to honor Him. We have the best and most challenging job as their parents and pray that God would give us wisdom as we guide and direct them daily.

I pray daily by boys will "act justly, love mercy and  walk humbly with their God."

More Howlin' Fun

We spent three days at the Great Wolf Lodge.

It was nice to have my parents with to watch Lincoln so we could go on some rides together.

Lincoln was all smiles in the water. He sat in the shallow water with a ring of fountains around him 

splashing. He made several friends!

 My little fishy

Jackson was so proud that he was tall enough for all the rides. He even went down some by himself!!

Lincoln didn't sleep real well in the hotel room, but could fall asleep anywhere in his stroller...even the loud, bright arcade. 

Last thing on the Paw Pass was a tattoo!

Pit stop on the way home

Lincoln was happy to get out of his car seat:)

We had a great time and were exhausted when we left, and Jackson is asking when we can go back!!

Great Wolf Lodge

We spent the beginning of Spring Break at the Great Wolf Lodge. 

Someone was excited! He had a countdown on his calendar.

My parents met us at the Resort.

Lincoln loved the water.

The indoor waterpark had 2 big tube rides and 3 smaller tub rides. Jackson LOVED them all and went on them multiple times a day. Kate had no fear and Garrison went on big tube rides once.

Jackson and Garrison with their Paw Pass and Wolf Ears. 

The Paw Pass let the boys do a little bit of everything at the hotel. One thing they got to do is create an animal. Jackson made Oliver. 

Daddy and Jackson were buddies at the water park

The boys also colored a shirt, played games in the arcade, went on a magic quest, and went to story time.

Fun times
